“As I prepared for my first marathon, the 2024 Chicago Marathon, I had no idea how physically demanding the training would be. Contrast Hot + Cold has truly been a game changer in my recovery and performance.
The contrast therapy sessions have significantly accelerated my recovery, helping both my body and mind stay strong and resilient. This allowed me to train consistently while maintaining peak performance. Beyond the physical benefits, I’ve also found a supportive community of like-minded individuals with similar goals, which has been incredibly motivating.
Contrast Hot + Cold has been essential to my training success and well-being.”
“Running the Chicago Marathon 4 years in a row has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. After a challenging six-month injury, I knew I needed to rethink my training, and that’s when I discovered contrast therapy. It’s been a game-changer for both my recovery and performance.The routine of 20 minutes in the sauna followed by three minutes in cold baths has helped my body recover. I no longer just push through pain; I nurture my body.
A highlight of this journey has been the community at Contrast.
Braxton has created a space where like-minded runners support each other. Our Monday run club,
“6 Before 7,” has become my favorite way to start the week”
“As a group fitness coach training for the Chicago Marathon, my days have involved a lot of movement and strain on my body. Incorporating a few sessions per week at Contrast Hot + Cold into my routine during this training period has been instrumental in helping my body recover and bounce back, allowing me to perform strongly during my training sessions. I’ve noticed not only physical improvements but also measurable gains in sleep quality and overall mindset.
Additionally, the Contrast team is always friendly and takes the time to get to know me during my sessions. Because of this, it’s no surprise that they’ve built a tight-knit community of people who are supportive and promote growth in many areas of life.”
“I’ve been consistently visiting Contrast for the past six months since it opened, and the impact on both my stress levels and recovery time has been remarkable. As the owner of a marketing agency and a fitness instructor, my schedule is demanding, so having a space and a community that helps me achieve a better balance has been invaluable.
My first cold plunge was challenging, but over time, I’ve come to appreciate it as an opportunity to practice mindfulness and refine my breathing techniques. Contrast has truly become an essential part of my routine for improving both my physical and mental well-being.”
