CONTRAST THERAPY
Contrast therapy is a guided session combining a cold plunge and red light. The alternation between stimulation and relaxation can stimulate the nervous system and enhance feelings of freshness, clarity, and rejuvenation—ideal as a reset in daily life or as part of your workout routine.
Contrast therapy combines two distinct stimuli: cold to invigorate and red light to relax. It is precisely this alternation that makes the session so special. Many guests experience it as a brief but intense reset—leaving them feeling more alert, with a clearer mind, and a noticeably fresher sense of well-being.
You don't need any prior experience. We'll guide you through the process step by step and tailor the session so that it feels safe, clear, and manageable.
What exactly is contrast therapy?
A personal coach will guide you through the entire session. This program is suitable for beginners, intermediate learners, and advanced students.
Total duration: approx. 25 minutes
1 · Arrival & Check-In
To start with, we’ll briefly discuss how you’re feeling, whether you have any previous experience with cold therapy, and what we should keep in mind.
2 · Preparation & Guidance
To help you start the session feeling calm and confident, you'll receive a brief introduction.
3 · Cold Plunge
The first stimulus stimulates your circulation, breathing, and alertness. We’ll guide you through the cold phase at 3 °C or 10 °C.

High-end location & lifestyle environment

Contrast therapy works primarily through the deliberate interplay of two opposing stimuli: cold activates the body, and light subsequently supports the transition into a calmer, restorative state. The cold plunge stimulates circulation, respiration, and the autonomic nervous system, and is often perceived as invigorating, clarifying, and energizing. Following this, photobiomodulation uses red and near-infrared light within a spectrum associated with mitochondrial function and cellular energy production.
It is precisely this alternation that makes the treatment so special: first, the system is deliberately set in motion, followed by a targeted stimulus at the cellular level. Many guests experience this as a tangible reset, bringing greater freshness and clarity, along with a physical sensation that feels both invigorated and rejuvenated. The session is therefore not only an intense moment in the here and now, but can also help bring the body out of a state of vague fatigue or stress and restore a sense of presence and energy.

Contrast therapy often reaches its full potential not just as a one-time reset, but especially when it becomes a regular part of your routine. By repeatedly using cold and light, you consciously create moments of activation, regulation, and recovery in your daily life—and this is often where the real benefit lies: greater consistency, a better sense of your body, and a reliable reset you can count on.
That's why you can also book the contrast therapy as a 10-session package. It's perfect for anyone who wants to do more than just try it out—but actually incorporate it into their daily routine or workout regimen for the long term.

During a contrast therapy session, you’ll be guided by an experienced coach who will carefully and personally lead you through the process of cold plunge and red light therapy. The session combines targeted activation through cold with a subsequent phase of conscious regeneration under red and near-infrared light. This creates a clearly structured routine that’s suitable for both beginners and experienced guests. Many clients experience the session as a noticeable reset, leaving them feeling more refreshed and clear-headed, with a body that feels both energized and more balanced.
How often you can use contrast therapy depends on your personal goals and how you feel. Many guests incorporate the session into their routine 1–3 times a week, for example as a reset in their daily life, around their workouts, or for conscious recovery. Precisely because contrast therapy is short, intense, and easy to integrate into your daily routine, it’s well-suited for regular use. If you’d like to use the session more frequently, we’re happy to help you find a frequency that works for you.
For medically supervised treatments, especially when cold therapy is combined with infusions or other medical therapies, a medical consultation is required to ensure safety and effectiveness. Pure cold lung sessions in the cold chamber are carried out under the supervision of a professional coach and generally do not require prior consultation with a doctor. Nevertheless, we recommend obtaining medical clarification in advance if you have any existing illnesses or complaints.
Contrast therapy is a safe method when performed properly. Possible side effects may include an intense sensation of cold, temporary skin redness, a feeling of warmth or tingling under the light, and mild circulatory reactions. These reactions are generally normal and are minimized by the controlled duration of treatment and supervision by trained specialists. In cases of certain pre-existing conditions or for sensitive individuals, stronger reactions may occur, which is why individual consultation and, if necessary, adjustment of the session are important.
Yes, contrast therapy is also well-suited for beginners. A coach will guide you through the entire session, and you don’t need any prior experience with cold plunges or red light therapy. The pace, intensity, and duration can be customized to your needs, so you’ll feel safe and well-supported. Many guests try contrast therapy for the first time here and find the guidance particularly helpful.
The water in the Cold Plunge is tempered between 3 °C and 10 °C to provide an intensive but controlled cold stimulus. This temperature range enables an effective cold application that is suitable for both beginners and experienced users. The targeted application of cold stimulates blood circulation, promotes the supply of oxygen to the muscles and supports the body's natural regeneration process.
After the session, many guests report feeling refreshed, clear-headed, and energized. Contrast therapy is often described as physically invigorating, mentally focusing, and at the same time pleasantly balancing. The intensity of this effect varies from person to person—but many particularly appreciate the feeling of being consciously taken out of their everyday routine for a short time.
