Recovery Suite - Sauna, Ice Bath

Available to book on the Team Up App, at £15 per session.

Max spent part of his Pole Vaulting career in Finland, where regular sauna sessions were normal recovery protocol. Pretty much every family had a sauna inside or outside of their house and it was used almost every evening before their family meal. From a sporting recovery purpose, the sauna was combined with intermittent submersions in the frozen lake.

The sauna boosts healing abilities by stimulating the release of heat shock proteins and increasing Human Growth Hormone levels - which helps maintain normal body structure and metabolism along with regulating blood sugar levels.

The heat causes the blood vessels to open up and then when contrast bathing in the ice bath, the blood vessels constrict, so this repeated process known as hyperthermic training acts like a full body pump, sending blood to muscles and joints that need repairing and also removing waste products, thus aiding the healing process.

You also sweat a lot which opens your pores and allows the skin to detox the body and this also burns calories which can help if you are trying to operate in a daily calorie deficit and makes the heart muscle work harder even by just sitting/lying down.

The sauna at Maximise Fitness is a wet sauna where you throw water onto the coals to feel that deep penetrative heat. You can also add your own aromatherapy oils like Olbas oil to the suspended oil dish. This will help you destress and fully relax.
