Yes. Decades of research supports contrast therapy and every modality we run — they’re used by professional teams and athletes across every major sport. If you have a pre-existing health condition, check with your doctor first. Stay hydrated, listen to your body, and our staff are always on hand to guide you.

Relaxes muscles, relieves tension, improves circulation, boosts mood, and reduces stress. Regular sauna use has also been linked to long-term cardiovascular health benefits and reduced risk of certain chronic diseases.

Increases energy, speeds up physical recovery, reduces inflammation, boosts mood, improves cardiovascular health, supports better sleep, helps burn fat and improve insulin sensitivity, strengthens immune function, and delivers neurocognitive benefits. The discomfort is the point — the adaptation is the reward.

The traditional Finnish-style sauna typically operates between 85-95°C, with humidity usually ranging between 15-25%.

Our ice baths offer multiple temperatures ranging from 3-10°C in order to be suitable for all experience levels.

Ice baths:

The right temperature and duration will depend on your comfort level and your previous experience with cold water immersion.

• For first-timers and beginners, we recommend starting with a shorter, 1-3 minute session at around 10-12°C.
• Those with some experience, might go for a slightly cooler bath at around 6-9°C and extend their time to around 3-5 minutes.
• Those who can handle colder temperatures and longer durations, might go for 3-5°C and extend their time to around 5-7 minutes.

Infrared Sauna:
Our sauna is set to 70 degrees, most people stay in for an average of 15 minutes. However, the time varies from person to person: some can only handle 5 to 10 minutes of the dry heat, others 25 (which should be the maximum time spent in the sauna). It’s a good idea to cool down after leaving the sauna.

Always make sure to listen to your body and adjust as needed!

It depends on your activity level and what feels right for your body. Some athletes love a quick dip after every game, while others might pop in a few times a week. Listen to your body—it knows best!

We offer Multi-Pack Casual Passes as well as Season Passes to suit players at all activity levels.

Our ice baths undergo a meticulous cleaning schedule, with regular and consistent water testing and sampling to ensure the only scary thing about the water is its temperature!

We use high quality, food grade sanitation chemicals that are chlorine-free, meaning the water is suitable for people with sensitive skin. The ice baths are also regularly completely emptied and wiped down for even greater peace of mind.

Similarly, our sauna is routinely cleaned and disinfected to ensure a safe, clean and comfortable environment.

But remember, the best way to keep the equipment clean is to be clean yourself! You must always shower before using the ice baths or sauna. Before every use.

Thank you for doing your part.

Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths to stimulate mitochondrial function — increasing ATP production in damaged or fatigued tissue. It supports faster cellular repair, reduces inflammation, and performs best after contrast therapy when the body is already in a parasympathetic recovery state.

Sequential pneumatic compression flushes metabolic waste, reduces swelling, and restores circulation in the legs and lower body. Particularly effective after high-impact training or competition and works best following infrared sauna when circulation is already elevated.

A warm mineral soak using magnesium-rich water absorbed transdermally. Magnesium is consistently depleted through sweat in high-output athletes — it supports ATP production, neuromuscular regulation, and pain signal modulation. It’s one of the most underrated tools in the suite.

The inversion table decompresses the spine by reversing gravitational load, creating negative pressure within the intervertebral discs and relieving nerve root compression. Most effective toward the end of a session once surrounding tissue has been loosened and circulation has been elevated.

Whole-body vibration stimulates neuromuscular communication throughout the kinetic chain — activating circulation, reducing stiffness, and reasserting the connection between the nervous system and muscle tissue. Best used as a neuromuscular reset at the end of a full recovery circuit.

Cryotherapy exposes the body to extremely cold air for a short duration — typically 2–3 minutes — triggering a rapid cold response without full immersion. Useful for athletes with low cold tolerance or tight schedules, and targets systemic inflammation and catecholamine release similarly to cold water immersion.

Factory 6, 2–6 Independence Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189. There’s parking on site and the facility is easily accessible from throughout Melbourne’s south-east.

Towel and shorts are available to hire and included in your session price. If you prefer to bring your own, pack a towel, swimwear or shorts, and thongs or slides. A water bottle is strongly recommended.

Yes — all sessions are booked manually. Walk-ins are subject to availability but booking ahead guarantees your spot.

Absolutely. We regularly host sporting teams and can accommodate groups across the full suite. Get in touch directly to discuss team rates and session scheduling — we’re flexible and can open the facility outside standard hours for larger groups.

Participants under 18 require parental consent and supervision. Contact us before booking if you’re bringing juniors.

Honestly, the first minute is the hardest part. After that your body adapts. The guided breathwork we include at the start of every session is specifically designed to make cold exposure manageable for first-timers. Most people surprise themselves.
