Cold plunge pool at Lolu
Best Contrast Therapy in Nashville 2026: Lolu
Contrast therapy is a wellness wave for people with a high threshold for unease. It consists of toggling immediately between a sauna (195 degrees Fahrenheit) and a cold-plunge pool (45 degrees Fahrenheit) to vamp up your blood vessels. Or something. I don’t know — I’m not a doctor. (And doctors have noted that while it can make people feel good short-term, there’s no evidence pointing to long-term benefits.) But Lolu is a welcoming place to ease into the practice, because the staff is super patient when dealing with wimps who can’t handle extreme elements. This wimp was content to dip her face into the cold plunge pool, a mild discomfort with a high return.
