20 Minute Hot & Cold
Your own private pod for 20 mins. Sauna + Ice Bath + Speaker + Shower + Dressing.
Book now →Step into your own pod - sauna, ice bath, rain shower and Sonos, all to yourself. No crowds, no queue. Just heat, cold, and you.
We started Hot & Cold with one belief: contrast therapy shouldn’t mean a cold queue and a shared tub. So we built private pods in the heart of Leytonstone - each with a sauna, a refrigerated ice bath, a rain shower and your own Sonos.
Choose hot stone up to 99°C or infrared up to 70°C, then plunge into water held between 3 and 15°C. Move between the two at your own pace, put on your own music, and make the space entirely yours.

In Finland and the world’s great sauna cultures, heat is always paired with cold. The movement between intense warmth and rapid cooling is what drives adaptation - circulation strengthens, recovery accelerates, and the nervous system learns to shift between activation and calm.
Regular sauna use is linked to improved heart function and reduced cardiovascular risk.
Deep sweating helps the body eliminate toxins and supports liver and kidney function.
Heat relaxes muscles, eases soreness and improves joint mobility post-exercise.
Relaxation and stress relief lower cortisol and lift mood.
Cold plunges reduce inflammation in muscles and joints and ease chronic pain.
Cold triggers endorphins and norepinephrine, lifting mood and easing anxiety.
Constriction and release boosts blood flow and cardiovascular health over time.
Athletes use cold immersion to reduce DOMS and recover faster between sessions.
From booking your sauna or cold plunge to managing your membership and tracking progress, the Hot & Cold app keeps the whole ritual one tap away.

Your wellbeing is our priority. All guests complete a short safety waiver during booking, and every pod has an emergency alarm beside the cold plunge. Listen to your body - we advise no more than 3 minutes in the plunge at a time.
