FAQ Header Image (What is a contrast shower?)

A contrast shower is a process which involves taking a very cold shower for a short intermittence, followed by a brief hot shower for another short burst.

Usually, it is recommended that those indulging in a contrast shower switch the shower to the coldest temperature possible for a minute, then to a very hot temperature for a minute. Between three and five cycles are advised.

Certain digital showers will be programmable to adjust their temperature automatically within set time frames to make the contrast shower process much easier to regulate.
