Centering Contrast Therapy
Use the body to still the mind.
At Nalu, our mission is to help clients find mental balance. While our float tanks provide a serene environment, we recognize that life’s daily challenges—anxiety, depression, or racing thoughts—can make mental stillness seem unattainable. That’s why we developed Centering Contrast Therapy.
Traditional contrast therapy alternates between sauna and cold plunge to revitalize the body. We've reimagined this practice with a gentler approach, combining an infrared sauna and intentional cold water stimulation to calm the mind.
After 20 minutes in our infrared sauna, clients then pour ice water over the arms, legs, chest, and back, embracing the invigorating contrast as a mindful, yoga-like practice. A slightly warm shower follows, preparing you for a 60-minute float.
Centering Contrast Therapy enhances the benefits of floating, and we highly recommend it to both new and experienced floaters
