Elemental Recovery and Spa

↺ REPEAT

Heat. Cool. Rest. Then begin again.

There’s a reason contrast therapy is practiced in cycles.

Research on repeated heat and cold exposure supports its use for post-exercise recovery, with some of the strongest evidence showing reduced muscle soreness and improved recovery of muscle function compared with passive rest. Emerging research also suggests cold-water exposure may support stress reduction and sleep quality.

At Elemental, most guests move through the circuit 2–4 times — allowing each round of heat, cool and rest to build upon the last.

Heat → Cool → Rest → Repeat

A ritual for recovery to implement in your wellness routine.

POV: You finally booked the self-care moment you’ve been putting off. 🤍

You start with the hydrotherapy circuit — heat, cool, rest, repeat. ♨️❄️. Feel yourself slow down and recharge.

Then you let all the tension melt away with a massage, a facial, or both… because apparently you can make taking care of yourself the whole itinerary. ✨

Swipe through your Elemental experience, from arrival to that “I needed this” feeling on the way out.

✨ Recovery, elevated.

At Elemental, recovery doesn’t end with hydrotherapy.

Whether you’re seeking therapeutic relief, deep relaxation, or radiant skin, our treatment menu has been thoughtfully designed to complement your wellness journey.

🤍 Massage Therapy
Enjoy a personalized treatment with one of our Registered Massage Therapists. Direct billing is available with most insurance providers, and couples massage is available for those looking to share the experience with a partner, friend, or loved one.

🌿 Facial Treatments
Each facial is tailored to your unique skin type and concerns, combining results-driven skincare with deep relaxation to leave you refreshed, restored, and glowing.

As a subtle nod to the Elemental Circuit, our facials guide you through a progression of heat → cool → rest, concluding with a signature ritual that must be experienced to be fully appreciated.

✨ Couples facials are also available.


For the best experience, we recommend enjoying hydrotherapy before your treatment. Arriving warm and relaxed allows you to get the most from your massage or facial while supporting proper post-treatment care.

Recovery, relaxation, and restoration — all under one roof.

🤍 The practice of rest.

The rest phase is often the most overlooked part of hydrotherapy — yet it may be one of the most important.
Allowing the body to gradually return to its normal temperature after cold exposure may support:

• Nervous system regulation
• Improved circulation
• Recovery and resilience
• Continued thermogenesis and metabolic activity
• Reduced stress and muscle tension
• A greater sense of calm and overall wellbeing

Rather than rushing back into heat, give your body a moment to adapt, recover, and reset.

Settle into the lounge with a complimentary tea or infused water, or elevate the experience further with offerings from our lounge menu, including charcuterie, premium snacks, and organic cold-pressed beverages from Greenhouse.

Because recovery isn’t just about what happens in the sauna or cold plunge — it’s also about giving your body the time and space to respond.

Sources include peer-reviewed research published through PubMed and the National Institutes of Health examining cold exposure, thermogenesis, recovery, and autonomic nervous system regulation.

🤍 Every detail, thoughtfully considered.

At Elemental, the experience begins long before you step into the sauna, hot pool, or cold plunge.

Our change rooms have been carefully designed to feel calm, welcoming, and restorative — a place to slow down, settle in, and prepare for your time of recovery.

Enjoy rainfall showers, premium products, salon-grade hair tools, thoughtfully curated guest comforts, and secure lockers for your belongings throughout your visit.

Robes, towels, and slides are provided for every guest, allowing you to simply arrive, unwind, and focus on your wellbeing.

Because recovery isn’t just about the circuit itself — it’s about how you feel from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave.

🔥 The ritual of heat.

Sauna therapy has been studied for its potential benefits on recovery, circulation, stress regulation, and overall wellbeing.

Research has linked regular sauna use to benefits such as:
• Improved circulation and cardiovascular function
• Reduced stress and nervous system tension
• Muscle recovery and relaxation
• Temporary relief of joint and muscle soreness
• Improved sleep quality
• Increased endorphin release and feelings of wellbeing
• Support for the body’s natural detoxification processes

Some long-term studies have also associated frequent sauna use with reduced cardiovascular and all-cause mortality risk.

At Elemental, our traditional dry sauna is thoughtfully integrated into our hydrotherapy circuit alongside cold exposure, rest, and recovery — creating space to slow down, reset, and reconnect with your body.
