Frequently asked questions
Can I bring a friend?
Yes you can bring a friend. Both of our contrast therapy rooms can accommodate up to two people. We charge an additional $40 per person per session.
What is contrast therapy?
Contrast therapy is the alternating of extremes of hot and cold temperatures. At Hana this involves going between an infrared sauna set at around 70 degrees C, and an ice bath set around 6 degrees C.
What is the difference between concessions and memberships?
- Concessions come in packs of 5, 10 or 20 sessions are a great option if you want to save money and need flexibility with how often you use the treatments. They have fixed expiry dates of 3, 6 and 12 months respectively.
- Memberships are our most cost effective option but require a minimum 3 month commitment to come every week. If you are working on a specific health goal, memberships are recommended.
Who should be careful using a sauna & ice bath?
If you have cardiovascular issues, please consult your doctor before using our contrast therapy treatments. Contrast therapy is also unsuitable in pregnancy.
What should I wear?
Our contrast therapy rooms are private so you can wear whatever you feel most comfortable in, whether that is a swimsuit or nothing at all.
How is the ice bath cleaned?
Our two ice baths have different sanitising systems. For our cedar wrapped tub, we use a dead sea mineral mix and the tub has a self-sanitising system. For our large ice bath, we use hydrogen peroxide.
How long should I spend in the sauna?
We recommend spending 15 to 20 minutes in the sauna, before showering and plunging into the ice bath. Then repeat! You have the session for a total of 60 minutes so play around with what feels best for you.
How long should I spend in the ice bath?
It is up to you how long you spend in the ice bath. We recommend between 1 and 5 minutes, before drying off and hopping back into the sauna.
