COLD PLUNGE
A cold plunge or ice bath is a well-documented method for reducing inflammation, easing sore muscles, strengthening the immune system, and enhancing mental clarity. At the same time, it builds resilience – the body’s and mind’s ability to handle stress and maintain focus.
Our baths are designed for a deeper, sharper, and more refined recovery experience, resetting both body and mind in just a few minutes.
Space for three people. A minimalist, aesthetic design that fits seamlessly into THEGYM’s calm surroundings. The water is continuously purified through advanced pump systems and always meets the highest hygiene and quality standards, comparable to a swimming pool.
The temperature is set between 7–9°C to ensure an optimal effect for both men and women.
BENEFITS OF COLD PLUNGE / ICE BATH
- Efficient recovery: reduce inflammation, relieve sore muscles, and accelerate your training results.
- Stronger immune system: cold exposure activates the body’s natural defense mechanisms.
- Improved mood & mental clarity: the cold shock releases endorphins and helps clear the mind.
- Resilience training: build mental strength by mastering breath and focus in the cold.

BIO SAUNA
Would you like to experience a whole new dimension of relaxation and aromatic wellbeing? Then you should try our bio sauna.
The bio sauna is a modern interpretation of the sauna experience, combining the traditional heat of classic saunas with innovative elements to create a unique and gentler heat experience.
The sauna is heated to approximately 60–65°C, compared to the traditional Finnish sauna which reaches up to 85–90°C. The bio sauna therefore offers a milder environment, where we combine temperature variations and essential oils to create an exceptional sensory experience.
A WORLD OF AROMATIC WELL-BEING
While our Finnish sauna only has essential oils under gus, the bio sauna has permanent essential oils. Here you can truly immerse yourself in a world of well-being and enjoy the aromatic scents at any time.
BENEFITS OF BIO SAUNA
- Milder Heat: The lower temperature in the bio sauna allows you to stay longer and enjoy the heat without discomfort.
- Aromatherapy: Continuous diffusion of essential oils enriches the air with soothing aromas that promote mental and physical relaxation and overall well-being.
- Restorative Properties: The Biosauna is designed to promote healing and recovery by combining therapeutic essential oils and a pleasant heat, making it ideal after exercise to promote muscle relaxation and reduce stress.
INFRARED SAUNA
Have you been recommended to use an infrared sauna before? It’s being recommended more and more often by physiotherapists, both as an extension of training and treatment – and there’s a reason for that!
You get comfortable warmth and well-being without overheating when you use the infrared sauna. The sauna does not feel hot like traditional saunas. The infrared rays heat your body, joints and muscles from the inside, so you’ll experience a gradually increasing and comfortable warmth.
RECOMMENDED BY PHYSIOTHERAPISTS
Many physiotherapists recommend this type of sauna for this very reason, as it provides a consistent and even heating of the body and joints, which is beneficial both before and after training and treatment. Muscles and joints relax while you increase your metabolism and get rid of waste products in the body. The infrared light stimulates recovery, pain relief and has a cleansing effect on both body and mind.
BENEFITS OF THE INFRARED SAUNA
- Comfortable heat: Infrared saunas provide a gentler, more comfortable heat that warms the body from within without overheating the room. This is ideal for those with low heat tolerance and for anyone seeking a more pleasant sauna experience.
- Therapeutic Effects: The infrared heat helps relieve muscle pain and joint stiffness, and is therefore particularly useful before and after physical activity to improve flexibility and reduce the risk of injury.
- Body detoxification: The deep heat helps stimulate sweating and detoxification. With regular use, it supports the body in eliminating toxins that can build up from everyday stress and environmental exposure.
- Stimulates Recovery and Pain Relief: Infrared light stimulates blood circulation and accelerates the body's natural healing processes, which is ideal for both physical recovery and general well-being.
