Ice bath in the sun? Yes, please!! We’re making over 1,000 lbs of ice each week and loading up tubs for ultimate contrast therapy!
Session duration is 90 glorious minutes! We'll be running 2 saunas / 12 people per time slot.
"Saunaty Rain Simulator" (not to be mistaken for a shower) is on site for a cool down before entering tubs - helps pre-cool bodies to preserve ice!
SUMMER LOCATION: 6662 Grand Haven Rd - It's a grass lot tucked behind Taylor Office Furniture (next to Wesco / across from Whippi Dip). Park in the back parking lot or in the grass in front of where the saunas are parked. PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS & ALERT ENTERING & EXITING THE PARKING LOT!
New to this? No problem! We'll provide some tips to ensure you're comfortable and ready for a great experience!
Questions? Please check our FAQ page, and then reach out with any other questions via txt/call/email.
How it works:
- You can start in the sauna, or start with a cold plunge if you're feeling brave!
- STEAM! Stay in the sauna til you're too hot. Maybe that’s 10 minutes, maybe it’s 25 minutes… it’s different for every body, every day. Listen to your body!
- CHILL! Cool off with a cold rinse and a dip in the ice tubs. Can you make it a full minute? Relax & breathe!
- Rehydrate and rest for a minute if needed, then repeat the cycle!
- Take additional rehydration breaks during sauna rounds if needed
