Thermotherapy Recovery Week
Thermotherapy recovery week schedules heat and cold during deloads or after events—lighter doses while HRV and sleep rebound.
A thermotherapy recovery week plans heat and cold across deload or post-event windows—lighter sauna, shorter plunges, and no new extremes while HRV rebounds. Heat soothes; cold blunts soreness; both add stress if mis-timed.
Pair thermotherapy with sleep extension and volume cuts.
Common questions
-
Should you sauna during a deload?
Gentle heat can aid relaxation in deloads if hydration and sleep are strong. Skip aggressive cold and heat stacks if HRV is suppressed or illness is present.
