Very pleasant design and atmosphere. Loved the magnesium pool, sauna & ice bath. Would have given 5 stars except for: women's showers desperately needed a clean then several dudes not showering between saunas and pools - yuck, people stretching out in saunas and leaving towels to claim spaces (uncool). But that’s just etiquette that can be learnt or taught! 😊. Oh and the app is glitchy which is really dull.

What it’s like
Sessions run a flat sixty minutes on the hour and are communal rather than private, with venue capacities between seven and twenty. Cold water varies by site: ice pools, ice baths, ice showers, a magnesium pool, and at the beach venues the ocean itself. Booking is through the studio's own app.

How these ratings work
These bars are a guide, not a score of this business. Each starts from Oria Haven’s profile of Ice bath & contrast as a kind of session, then is adjusted by facts stored on this listing: its price band, its group size and whether it welcomes beginners.
Nobody has rated this particular venue in person, and reviews are not fed in. Where we have no fact about this listing behind a bar — for example how many people share the room — we leave that bar out rather than guess.
They describe the room — how quiet, how physical, how many people — never what a session is supposed to do for you.

Sauna set to 90C and has a ladle with eucalyptus water in each of the three spacious saunas. This is a great enhancer to the experience. Hot pool set to about 37C and is very relaxing. Cold pool set to 10C warmer than expected though still decent. Actual temperature varies - obviously more bodies in there, temperature rises and gets to 11-12C however I’ve clocked it down to 8.7C during a quiet (six people) session. They could have “cold hours” where they turn the temperature down to 5-8C to cater for the more seasoned members. They could benefit from a step to assist some members getting in and out of the hot pool and ice bath as many have mentioned quite a drop for them. Overall vibe and build quality is exceptional. They certainly provide good value and top facilities for their members and casual drop ins. The staff are all excellent, helpful and provide great service. As a brand Alchemy cares about and responds to their members feedback. 👍🏽
Lovely relaxation spot. Facility is clean and staff are friendly and helpful. Three sauna rooms, and ice bath and a hot tub (also mostly sitting at less than 40 degrees) Can be abit noisy during peak times with large groups so avoid those sessions if its not your thing. Parking is somewhat difficult at times.

Makes a giftGoes well with Sleep & Recovery
Why we picked it
The simplest change to an evening is making it dark. Silk sits lightly, does not pull at the skin, and this one is shaped so the eyes are not pressed. It is also the mask sound bath and yoga nidra hosts hand out, which is a fair recommendation on its own.

Everyday useGoes well with Sleep & Recovery · Fitness & Movement
Why we picked it
A roller does not need to be clever. It needs to be firm enough to hold its shape and short enough that you actually use it. This is the plain, inexpensive one, and the 30cm length is the right size for calves, thighs and the upper back without taking over the room.
