RECOVERY
What is Contrast Therapy?
Contrast Therapy alternates between heat and cold exposure via cold plunge inversions and red light infrared saunas in order to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and support muscle recovery. This traditional practice offers a wide range of benefits for both the body and mind. We recommend spending 30min alternating between these two techniques, spending 10 to 15 minutes in the sauna and 2 to 3 minutes in cold plunges.
Benefits:
Benefits:
- Enhances concentration, mental calm, and body renewal.
- Reduces stiffness and pain before rehabilitation and exercise.
- Increases blood flow and stimulates vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) and vasoconstriction (narrowing of blood vessels).
- Cleanses tissues and reduces edema.
- Mobilizes and stimulates the autonomic nervous system.
What is the correct order for Contrast Therapy, heat or cold?
You can adjust the order based on your preferences. For optimal recovery, begin with a 5-minute guided breathwork session to calm your nervous system. Then, move on to the sauna for 10-15 minutes, followed by a 2-3 minute cold plunge.
Throughout both the sauna and cold plunge, focus on slow nasal breathing, ensuring your exhale is longer than your inhale to activate your parasympathetic nervous system. Afterward, take at least 5 minutes to sit quietly, breathe deeply, and reflect on your session.

Can I do the circuit if I am pregnant?
We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before participating. While certain elements of the circuit may be suitable, adjustments might be necessary to ensure your safety and comfort.
Is it recommended for people with injuries or heart problems?
If you have an injury or a heart condition, it’s essential to seek medical advice before starting The Wellness Circuit. Certain components may need to be avoided or modified.
Can I do only recovery or only Pilates?
Of course! While we recommend participating in the full wellness circuit to ensure you get the most out of the benefits of "moving mindfully and recovering consciously"—our motto—the choice is yours. The full journey allows you to experience the synergy of a sharper body and mind. However, if you prefer, you’re welcome to focus solely on recovery or Pilates. Both are designed to provide incredible benefits on their own.
What is conscious recovery?
Conscious recovery is a key approach to caring for our holistic well-being, going beyond simply stretching after a workout. Rather than being a response to an injury, recovery consciously aims to prevent them, optimizing health and quality of life. It involves taking the necessary time to listen to the body, recognize its needs, and allow it to recover intentionally, connecting body and mind. At Olimpia, we understand that conscious recovery is just as essential as exercise itself, as it helps integrate physical activity and achieve a state of calm and balance, preventing injuries and enhancing overall well-being.
Do I need to bring anything for my Recovery session?
Yes! For your comfort and hygiene, we ask that you bring flip-flops and a bathing suit for the Recovery session. We provide towels, robes, and all other essentials to ensure you have a seamless and relaxing experience.
If you’d like to hydrate before or after, we have a water station where you can refill your own bottle, and we also sell bottled water and other refreshing beverages at reception.
