Contrast Massage
Relax muscles with our innovative contrast massage therapy. Think of it as an ice massage, and rapidly switching to a hot stone massage. The cold temperatures help to reduce both pain sensations and blood flow, while the gentle rotating movement helps mobilize soft tissue in the same way as a regular massage. In contrast, the heat promotes blood flow circulation, releases toxins, and encourages tissue regeneration.

Contrast Massage FAQ
What Happens in a Contrast Massage Therapy Session?
The easiest and most effective form of contrast therapy is wet therapy, which requires you to submerge yourself and switch between a hot and cold bath. One bath should be filled with hot water, approximately 36 – 43 degrees Celsius, and the cold bath should be between 7 – 21 degrees. Begin by entering the hot bath and stay for around 3-4 minutes before switching immediately to the cold bath for around 1 minute. Always start with heat before moving to cold unless you suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, in which case you want to finish on hot. Repeat the steps 3-6 times for a total of around 20-30 minutes.
