Infrared sauna uses radiant heat, and cold plunge uses cold-water immersion. Used together as contrast therapy, they are a popular recovery routine. At SD Body they sit alongside physician-led care.

What people use it for

  • Recovery and relaxation routines
  • Contrast therapy (heat then cold)
  • A complement to a broader wellness plan

Where it’s available

Infrared sauna and cold plunge are available at both our Mission Hills and La Jolla clinics.

Physician-informed, not a stand-alone promise

This practice is run by real medical doctors. Wellness and recovery services are offered alongside a physician-led evaluation, so they fit into a plan rather than replace one. See recovery and longevity care.
