Contrast therapy, alternating between heat and cold, is one of the most effective recovery and wellness practices available today. When performed correctly, it supports circulation, inflammation reduction, and nervous system balance.
What Is Contrast Therapy?
Contrast therapy involves alternating exposure to:
- Heat (infrared sauna)
- Cold (cold plunge)
This cycle creates a pumping effect in the circulatory system, encouraging oxygen delivery and waste removal.
