This guide explains what to expect at Melt Saunas & Cold Plunge, from the facilities and session format to prices, getting there and similar venues close by, so you can decide whether it suits you before you book.

Melt Saunas & Cold Plunge has a traditional sauna: a timber room heated by a stove and stones rather than infrared panels. Temperatures in traditional saunas usually sit between 70 and 90°C, and the heat surrounds you rather than warming you from one direction. Short rounds of around 10 minutes, followed by a cool-down, are the usual way to use it.

Melt Saunas & Cold Plunge pairs its heat with a cold plunge. Moving from sauna to cold water is the core of contrast therapy, and most people find a plunge in the 8–15°C range bracing but manageable. Step in rather than jumping, keep your breathing slow, and follow it with a few minutes of rest before your next round.

Melt Saunas & Cold Plunge is set up for contrast therapy: heat, then cold, then rest, repeated. Many recovery studios offer guided sessions or suggested protocols, such as around 15 minutes of sauna, a minute or two in an ice bath or cold plunge, and a short rest, repeated two or three times. Some also have compression boots, red-light panels or breathwork. Sessions are booked by time slot, and memberships are common for regulars.
