Recovery & Wellness Marbella
Infrared Sauna. Ice Baths.
A private recovery suite built into the gym — infrared sauna and ice baths on hand the moment you finish training. Because how quickly you recover decides how often you can train, and how often you train decides your result.
The half of training most people skip.
Recovery is the training
Training is the stimulus. Recovery is when your body adapts to it — sleep, heat and cold simply help you get there faster and train hard again sooner.
Built for a full diary
The suite sits inside the gym, not across town. Twenty minutes after your session and you're done — no second appointment, no second commute.
Contrast, done properly
Sauna then ice, in sequence, is the protocol worth your time. A coach will walk you through timings and how to fit it around your training week.
Quiet and private
A calm, discreet space away from the main floor. No queue, no audience, no one filming.
Heat that works deeper.
Infrared warms the body directly rather than superheating the air around it, so you get the full effect at a temperature you can actually sit in — and stay in long enough for it to matter. It is the gentler, more usable end of heat therapy, and the one people stick with.
- Deep, penetrating heat that relaxes muscle tissue and eases post-session stiffness
- Increased circulation and blood flow to working muscles, so you turn up fresher
- A measurable drop in stress load — heat exposure is one of the simplest ways to shift out of fight-or-flight
- Better sleep quality on the nights you use it, which is where the real adaptation happens
- Twenty quiet minutes with no phone, no meetings and nobody asking you for anything
Cold that resets you.
Two to four minutes in cold water is one of the most reliable tools we have for cutting soreness, shortening the gap between hard sessions and clearing your head before the rest of the day. Most people find the mental effect as valuable as the physical one.
- Rapid reduction in inflammation and soreness after heavy or high-intensity work
- Faster turnaround between sessions — train four times a week without accumulating fatigue
- A sharp, clean lift in alertness, focus and mood that lasts hours
- Deliberate discomfort you control — the same discipline that carries into everything else
- Supports resilience and immune function through consistent cold exposure
How we use it
A typical protocol: 15–20 minutes in the infrared sauna, then 2–4 minutes in the ice, repeated once if you have time. Post-session on hard days, or as a standalone reset on rest days and after travel. Your coach will set the timings around your training week rather than leaving you to guess.
When your time is expensive.
Most of our members are running businesses, travelling constantly or competing — often all three. They do not have six days a week to train, and they cannot afford to spend three of those days sore, flat or half-recovered from the last one.
That is the real argument for the recovery suite. It protects the quality of every session you do manage to get in, it shortens the recovery window so four focused hours a week are genuinely enough, and it gives you back energy, sleep and clarity outside the gym — which is what you were actually training for.
Infrared sauna and ice bath access are included with every Elements membership. No add-on fee, no separate booking, no other appointment in the diary.

Get Coached
By ApplicationTraining built for every stage of life.
Two discounted memberships that sit outside the standard tiers — limited in number and offered by application so every member gets the attention they need.
Elements Senior
Stay strong. Stay independent.
Marbella life is meant to be lived — long lunches, golf, tennis, padel, walking the paseo with the grandchildren. None of that survives lost muscle, stiff joints and a fear of falling. Elements Senior is built to protect exactly that: strength, balance, mobility and confidence, coached at a pace that respects your body and your history.
- Quiet daytime access when the floor is calm and every machine is free
- A guided induction with a coach who screens joints, balance and posture first
- Strength and mobility work proven to protect bone density and independence
- Sauna and recovery facilities to keep you moving between sessions
- A discounted rate, offered by application
Elements Junior
The right start, with the right people.
Most teenagers learn to train from a phone screen — bad form, worse advice and a body that pays for it years later. Elements Junior gives them a safe, supervised, genuinely supportive room instead: real coaching on technique, sensible programming for a growing body, and an ethos of discipline and respect they carry into everything else.
- Supervised access with coaches who teach technique before load
- Age-appropriate programming built around growth, sport and school schedules
- A controlled, respectful environment — no egos, no bad habits
- Confidence, discipline and routine that transfer well beyond the gym
- Parent consultation included before any teenager starts
Train hard. Recover properly.
Come and see the recovery suite for yourself. Arrange a private visit at a time that suits you and a coach will show you round and explain how to use it around your week.
