Your first sauna and cold plunge session

Two experiences, one private space

Contrast therapy brings warmth and cold into the same session. In our rooms, that means an infrared sauna alongside a cold plunge, with time to move between the two.

The setting is deliberately simple: a private room and a pause from the pace of the day. You don’t need to know a particular routine before you arrive. Let us know it’s your first visit and we’ll introduce you to the room and equipment.

Find the right appointment in our calendar

For a room with both sauna and cold plunge, open our booking calendar and choose “Infrared Sauna + Cold Plunge”. That is the booking name for our contrast experience. You’ll also see “Infrared Sauna” as a separate option for a sauna appointment.

Take a moment to check the service name before choosing your time. Red light therapy and body composition scans have their own appointment options; they aren’t included simply because you’ve opened the same calendar. If you’re deciding between experiences, our treatment pages give you a closer look at each space.

Check your booking before you finish

Choose an available appointment and review the date, time, service and total shown before completing the booking. If you have a pack or existing credit, check how it applies to the appointment you’ve selected. Buying a pack and reserving a time are separate steps.

Keep your appointment confirmation handy. If the screen is unclear, or you’re unsure whether a booking or payment went through, pause and contact us before trying again. Call us on 021 784 988 and tell us which appointment you were trying to reserve. We’ll help you check the next step.

Give yourself room to arrive

You’ll find us inside Twenty Two Mokoia at 22 Mokoia Road, Birkenhead. Check your route before leaving and allow a little breathing room around your appointment so you can arrive without rushing. Our visiting guide brings the location and parking information together.

Bring swimwear or light activewear, plus a change of clothes if you’d like one. We provide fresh towels and shower facilities. Read the preparation details in your confirmation, and bring any questions about the room with you.

If you’re unsure whether heat or cold exposure is suitable for you, speak with your healthcare professional before booking. You can also contact us with questions about our space and equipment.

Settle in at your own pace

We’ll introduce you to the equipment and explain how to reach us during your visit. Your appointment is time in the room; it isn’t a target for continuous time in the sauna or plunge. Leave space to pause, get comfortable and follow the guidance we give you.

The plunge is your choice. You’re welcome to enjoy the sauna without stepping into the cold water. There’s no expectation to complete a set number of rounds or stay in the water for a particular time. Follow the guidance for our room rather than a routine you’ve seen online.

Coming with someone? Speak with us first

A shared visit can be a lovely way to make time together. Before reserving, ask us about the room and guest option for the people coming with you. We’ll help you choose the right booking.

Check that your confirmation reflects the visit you arranged. Give yourselves time afterwards to change and gather your things, so this part of the day can end as calmly as it began.

A simple first-visit checklist

Choose “Infrared Sauna + Cold Plunge” for a contrast appointment. Review the service, date, time and total before finishing. Keep your appointment confirmation, even if you already have a pack or credit.

Bring your swimwear or light activewear and anything you’d like to change into. Find us at 22 Mokoia Road, and let us know when you arrive that it’s your first visit. We’ll take you through the space from there.

When you’re ready, explore our contrast therapy page and find a time in the calendar. We look forward to welcoming you.
