How Do You Prepare Your Body?
To get the most out of your experience and ensure your safety, we recommend arriving hydrated and lightly fed. This will help your body better handle the contrasting temperatures during your session.
What Is the Best Attire to Wear to Garden Sauna Denver?
For the best experience, we suggest arriving in a bathing suit. This way, you can easily change into your robe, step into the sauna, and enjoy the outdoor cold plunge with ease.
What Do You Need to Bring with You to Garden Sauna Denver?
We recommend bringing a swimsuit, a water bottle, a towel, and indoor sandals or flip-flops for use in the sauna area. This will help you feel comfortable and prepared for your session.
How Do I Maximize the Use of My Hour-Long Session of Contrast Therapy at Garden Sauna Denver?
To make the most of your hour-long session, listen to your body and alternate between the wood-fired sauna and outdoor cold plunge as you feel comfortable. Many customers begin with the sauna (heat therapy) for 15-20 minutes, then rinse off in the shower before starting their cold plunge (cold therapy). The cold plunge typically lasts between 30 seconds to 3 minutes at a time. We suggest building your tolerance to the cold gradually, focusing on counting your breaths rather than the seconds in the plunge.
How Do I Build a Tolerance for Cold Plunging?
We encourage our community to embrace breathing techniques that can be applied to various areas of life, including cold plunging and sauna use. One such technique is the Wim Hof Method, which is often shared by our community as an effective way to build tolerance for cold exposure.
How Do I Know When I’ve Completed My Contrast Therapy Session at Garden Sauna Denver?
As you listen to your body, you’ll recognize when it’s time to take a break, hydrate, or regulate your temperature with another plunge. You may also sense when you’ve had enough heat. "Sauna brain" is real, so it's essential not to overdo it. If you feel lightheaded or uncomfortable, it's a sign to step away and take a break.
How Can I Support My Body After a Garden Sauna Denver Contrast Therapy Session?
To help your body recover, we recommend refilling your water bottle with our filtered water system before leaving to stay hydrated. Additionally, consider consuming salt-based foods or adding salts or minerals to your water to support hydration and replenish electrolytes.
