Having experienced firsthand, the profound impact of Contrast Therapy, it became clear it was a tool more people needed to know about.
Its ability to snap you out of whatever funk you may be going through at that moment in time, is unrivalled, my mission is to help you, and many others manage your stress and energy using this powerful tool as one modality.
Contrats therapy can be used to disrupt your old, unhelpful patterns and habits. By reducing the stressors and helping you get a handle on things, it is likely you'll feel less urges to participate in your vices of choice. Not only that, by being around new people and in a different environement you're also disrupting the patterns that usually play out in your life.
Everyones got something going on in life that could be viewed as triggering or stress inducing. From our own experiences, regular contrast therapy will help you regulate your reactivity and become more centred in your actions. Giving you that moment of calm to consider before you do or say something that can cause hurt and pain to those nearest and dearest.
No matter when you choose to practice, the act of showing up and taking part signals to your mind, body and soul that you have intent. Typical results and feedback from Contrast Therapy sessions is that they have the power to hit 'reset' on your week, regardless of how stressful, draining, crappy or testing it has been.
Join us to experience this for yourself and be guided to a new reality.
Learn from the traditions and cultures who have embraced bathhouses, hamams, saunas, cold plunges and such for milenia.

Having never been one for the commercial gym saunas that are often overcrowded, not hot enough, produce a very dry heat or just not hitting the spot, it wasn't until around 2021 that the true appreciation of sauna culture emerged.
It was the pairing of the heat and cold, immersed in a natural setting at Divers Cove, that the benefits really shone through, filtering out into daily life.
Feeling more calm, less reactive and with a deeper sense of peace all week, the results were tangible.
As the consistency built, taking part in weekly cold water immersions paired with sauna usage, we started to notice knock-on positive effects and patterns in how we felt, not just immediately afterwards but also throughout the week.
With a newfound energy, sense of being more centred & ability to adopt new habits or remove old, unhelpful ones from our lives with more ease.
Contrast therapy is like pressing the Reset button on your day, week or life.
Acting as an intentional, self administered intervention, you can take what you learn with us and apply to your daily lives to live a healthier, happier life.

This is all about getting back to basics in nature and being able to jump off the jetty into clean water then make new friends in the toasty barrel sauna. I came away invigorated with a big smile on my face.

Had a great sauna and lovely very cold dip in the lake. The lake is really nice and clear and perfect for pre and post sauna dip. The barrel sauna was at a nice temperature of 80 degrees C
