At Salt+Light, that means warming up in the infrared sauna, cooling down in the cold plunge, resting with red light therapy then repeating at your own pace
The contrast between the two creates an invigorating full-body experience that can support circulation, recovery and that very satisfying I did something good for myself feeling

hot+cold relax FAQ’s
-
Contrast therapy is synonymous with hot & cold therapy. It involves a process of toggling between the heat in an infrared sauna, creating vasodilation in the body, and the cold in the plunge, creating vasoconstriction in the body.
We built our suite to contain a 2 person sized infrared sauna, with a cold plunge right next to it. The suite also contains a relax zone with red light therapy panels.
Once you book a session, you can alternate between the sauna, plunge, and red light to your own preferences.
-
Our full spectrum infrared sauna can reach a temperature of 158F
Our cold plunge is kept at a temperature ranging between 44F – 48F -
We require a swimsuit for the cold plunge. You may want to bring additional warm comfy clothes to change into after your service.
-
Swimwear is required
We provide you with two towels and a robe per person in our suite.
The most important thing we recommend is bringing water with you, we have our complimentary beverage station available to refill your water bottle if you bring one.
If you would like, you are welcome to bring your own toiletries, robe, extra towels, and slippers. You may also bring a warm comfy change of clothes for after your session!
-
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!
Hydration is one of the most important things before, during, and after each sauna session. Electrolytes are a plus!
Going into your sauna as hydrated as possible will maximize the comfort and benefits of your sauna experience and keep you safe.
Avoid large, heavy meals before your session. Avoid putting any products on your skin before arriving as well.
During your session you will be sweating and releasing toxins a lot, and products on the skin can interfere with the detox process.
-
Salt+Light offers Express, 30, 45, and 60-minute contrast therapy sessions. You will get an additional 10 minutes in the suite to get ready before and after.
-
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate more!
Some find that they are chilled up to even a few hours after they step out of the suite when they end on cold and red light.
Allow your body to warm up naturally and if it becomes too uncomfortable, take a warm shower
-
Cold Plunge:
Similar to our float suite, our cold plunge’s primary disinfectant process is ozone, which is injected into the water during the filtration process 24/7.When dissolved in water, ozone produces a broad spectrum biocide that destroys all bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
As an oxidizing agent it is 51% stronger than chlorine, and works over 3x as fast.
We also treat the water daily with spa grade non- toxic sanitizers that keeps our water clean and pure so you can safely enjoy your dip in the cold.
Infrared Sauna:
We take cleanliness very seriously and ensure that the suite is fully cleaned in between sessions with non-toxic cleaning supplies.Additionally, infrared heat kills 99% of bacteria, creating an inherently sterile environment.
-
You will always have a private session.
Our suite can comfortably accommodate two guests and we offer a 60 minute doubles session.
If you would like to bring a friend, please choose the doubles option while booking
