Between rounds, rest in the River Room with panoramic views of the Animas — breathe, sip your complimentary drink, and let the contrast do its work.

Cold Plunge FAQ

Questions, answered honestly

Cold enough to work — a brisk, invigorating temperature that triggers the circulation and recovery benefits without being punishing. Your first dip is the hardest; it gets easier (and addictive) fast.

Start with 1–3 minutes per immersion and alternate with sauna rounds across your 30-minute session. Listen to your body — there's no prize for shivering.

Absolutely — the cedar dry sauna is welcome on its own, no cold plunge required. Pure heat therapy is a perfectly good ritual by itself.

Just a swimsuit — towels, upscale locker rooms, and a complimentary drink are all included with your session.

For most healthy adults, yes — we'll coach your first plunge. If you're pregnant or have a heart condition, uncontrolled blood pressure, or Raynaud's, check with your doctor first.
