DADAR //

Dadar's clinical recovery centre.

R3BOOT sits on Swami Gyan Jivandas Marg in Dadar East, minutes from Dadar station on both Central and Western lines. If you live or train in Dadar, Shivaji Park, Matunga, or Parel, contrast therapy is not a cross-city trip. It is local.

Sessions alternate infrared sauna and supervised ice bath. Your physiotherapist selects a Day Cycle (ends cold, energises) or Night Cycle (ends hot, deep recovery and sleep) based on your schedule, runs a health intake, and teaches breathing before cold immersion.

HOW IT WORKS //

What contrast therapy does to your body

When you alternate between heat and cold, your body responds at a vascular level. Repeating the cycle two to three times creates a pumping action that clears metabolic waste at a rate passive rest cannot match.

68°C
6–10°C
CYCLE
01

Heat phase at 68°C

Blood vessels dilate. Blood flow to muscles increases. Oxygen and nutrients reach damaged tissue. Muscle tension decreases.

02

Cold phase at 6–10°C

Blood vessels constrict. Blood and metabolic waste - lactic acid, inflammatory cytokines - are forced away from muscles. Swelling reduces.

03

The alternation effect

Repeating the cycle creates a vascular pumping action. Research shows contrast therapy reduces perceived muscle soreness significantly more than cold immersion alone.

COMPARISON //

Contrast Therapy delivers more than cold alone.

Ice baths have their place. But alternating heat and cold creates a vascular pumping effect that clears more waste, reduces soreness and supports better performance.
