Nordic countries have been doing contrast therapy, and doing it well, for ages, but, unfortunately, not everyone has a fjord or ice-cold river right out of their back door. The only option for those of us not living near the Arctic circle was to find a gym or fitness club with a sauna and a cold plunge tub. This has all changed in the past few years, with dozens of brands popping up, offering at-homesaunasand ice baths that willtransform your backyardinto the Nordic haven you deserve.

One brand at the forefront of the movement isPlunge, whose founders, after growing tired of throwing 50 pounds of ice into a stock tank every time they wanted a recovery sesh, developed a premium fiberglass tub with all the bells and whistles. Soon after their cold plunges took off, they launched electric-powered saunas designed for home use. The only problem is this: artificially recreating the power of an Arctic body of water and a wood-burning sauna is very expensive. This month, though, Plunge is offering one of the biggest sales we’ve ever seen, with savings of up to $4,500 on saunas and $2,500 on cold plunges, plus 50 percent off the three-year extended warranty.

Plunge All-In Gen 2 with Heater (25% off)

The Plunge Holiday Sale is the best time to pull the trigger on a new sauna or cold plunge (or one of their bundles). You’ll save 25 percent on all cold plunges, including theAll-In, which has an optional heater that turns your cold plunge into a hot tub by heating the water up to 104°.

Plunge The Sauna (20% off)

Can’t choose between hot and cold? Go for both, with up to $7,500 offcontrast bundlesthat let you hop back and forth like the Nordics do. Plus, you can save 50 percent on Plunge Protect, the brand’s extended warranty against any electrical or mechanical failures.

The sale is currently running and will last through December 10th, so you don’t have to decide today, but believe me, it’s never too early to start channeling your innerWim Hof.
