Thermotherapy is the intentional cycle of heat, cold, and rest. At AetherHaus, this tri-phase journey stimulates circulation, supports detoxification, and activates the nervous system in a way that boosts resilience, clarity, and peace.
We recommend listening to your body and starting slow. While there are no strict rules, many guests alternate between 10–20 minutes in the sauna and 30 seconds –3 minutes in the cold plunge. Some may do this cycle multiple times, followed by rest and tea.
