Contrast Therapy Suite
Contrast Therapy in Tucson with Cold Plunge, Sauna, and Red Light Therapy
Greentoes North is proud to offer three new wellness services. These treatments can help improve your well-being by reducing stress, easing muscle pain, and supporting overall recovery.
Cold Plunge Therapy
A cold plunge tub maintains temperatures between 37- and 55-degrees Fahrenheit. When you enter the tub, cold water causes blood vessels to tighten. This response reduces inflammation and soreness. Most guests use the plunge for three to five minutes at a time. Cold plunge therapy is especially beneficial after physical activities or intense exercise.
*This therapy might not be suitable for people with specific health conditions such as heart issues or circulation problems. Always check with your doctor if you are uncertain.
Hot Stone Sauna
Our Hot Stone Sauna features smooth volcanic stones that gently heat the air and surroundings. Guests relax on comfortable benches while the warm stones radiate soothing dry heat, causing gentle sweating. Sweating removes toxins from the body, helps skin glow, and relaxes tense muscles.
A typical sauna session lasts between 10 and 15 minutes. Sauna use can boost circulation and promote better sleep. Greentoes ensures each guest has fresh towels and clear instructions for a safe and relaxing experience.
*People sensitive to heat or those with certain medical conditions should consult a healthcare provider before using sauna therapy.
Red Light Therapy
Red Light Therapy sessions with professional LED panels emit calming red and near-infrared light. Clients face the panel on the wall during treatments, which last between 10 and 20 minutes. The red light penetrates the skin to support cell regeneration and improve circulation.
Red Light Therapy can help reduce joint pain, enhances skin appearance, and promotes faster muscle recovery. Sessions feel pleasantly warm without discomfort. This treatment is gentle enough for most clients but ask your physician if you have health concerns.
Who Benefits from Contrast Therapy?
These therapies are ideal for athletes, runners, fitness enthusiasts, and busy professionals. People recovering from physical activity, those managing stress, or anyone interested in improving overall wellness will benefit.
Combining Therapies for a Contrast Therapy Experience
Greentoes encourages guests to combine these therapies for optimal results. A common practice is to use the sauna for about 10 minutes followed by a quick three-minute cold plunge. Alternating warm and cold stimulates circulation, accelerates muscle recovery, and leaves you feeling refreshed and invigorated.
Guests often add Red Light Therapy after the cold plunge to further enhance recovery.
