Thermotherapy health and safety.

  • Before engaging in the thermal cycle, especially if you have any pre-existing health conditions, are pregnant, or have concerns about your cardiovascular health, consult with your healthcare provider. They can offer personalized advice and confirm that the thermal cycle is suitable for you.

  • Staying well-hydrated is crucial when participating in the thermal cycle. Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your session to help your body regulate temperature and prevent dehydration.

  • To avoid overheating or sudden temperature changes, limit your time in the hot and cold areas according to your comfort level. Generally, it is recommended to stay in the hot area for 5-20 minutes and in the cold area for 1-2 minutes. Adjust these times based on how you feel.

  • Pay attention to how your body responds to each phase of the thermal cycle. If you feel lightheaded, dizzy, or uncomfortable, exit the hot or cold area immediately and move to a resting area. Always prioritize your comfort and well-being.

  • The rest period is essential for allowing your body to return to a normal temperature and recover. Take this time to relax and rejuvenate in a calm environment. Ensure you are fully rested before beginning another cycle.

  • Refrain from consuming alcohol or heavy meals before participating in the thermal cycle. These can affect your body’s ability to handle temperature changes and may lead to discomfort or health issues.
