# FindSaunaPlunge > Cold plunge, sauna, and contrast therapy studios with checked, dated details. Every venue record carries the date its details were last checked (`lastVerified`), and its `status` states how it was checked: "verified" means every fact was cross-checked against multiple current public sources in agreement; "community" and "brand_import" mean checked against the studio's own published details. Facts that are unknown are omitted rather than guessed — an absent field means "we do not know", never "zero" or "none". ## Coverage - Venues: 546 - Cities published: 23 - States published: 16 - Independently verified: 0 - Verification dates range from 2026-07-27 to 2026-09-27 ### Cities - [Minneapolis, Minnesota](https://findsaunaplunge.com/mn/minneapolis-mn/) — 37 venues - [New York, New York](https://findsaunaplunge.com/ny/new-york-ny/) — 34 venues - [Atlanta, Georgia](https://findsaunaplunge.com/ga/atlanta-ga/) — 29 venues - [Chicago, Illinois](https://findsaunaplunge.com/il/chicago-il/) — 29 venues - [Denver, Colorado](https://findsaunaplunge.com/co/denver-co/) — 29 venues - [Phoenix, Arizona](https://findsaunaplunge.com/az/phoenix-az/) — 29 venues - [Houston, Texas](https://findsaunaplunge.com/tx/houston-tx/) — 28 venues - [Los Angeles, California](https://findsaunaplunge.com/ca/los-angeles-ca/) — 28 venues - [Tampa, Florida](https://findsaunaplunge.com/fl/tampa-fl/) — 27 venues - [Miami, Florida](https://findsaunaplunge.com/fl/miami-fl/) — 26 venues - [Austin, Texas](https://findsaunaplunge.com/tx/austin-tx/) — 24 venues - [Philadelphia, Pennsylvania](https://findsaunaplunge.com/pa/philadelphia-pa/) — 23 venues - [San Francisco, California](https://findsaunaplunge.com/ca/san-francisco-ca/) — 23 venues - [Seattle, Washington](https://findsaunaplunge.com/wa/seattle-wa/) — 23 venues - [Nashville, Tennessee](https://findsaunaplunge.com/tn/nashville-tn/) — 20 venues - [San Diego, California](https://findsaunaplunge.com/ca/san-diego-ca/) — 19 venues - [Boston, Massachusetts](https://findsaunaplunge.com/ma/boston-ma/) — 18 venues - [Dallas, Texas](https://findsaunaplunge.com/tx/dallas-tx/) — 18 venues - [San Antonio, Texas](https://findsaunaplunge.com/tx/san-antonio-tx/) — 18 venues - [Washington, District of Columbia](https://findsaunaplunge.com/dc/washington-dc/) — 18 venues - [Las Vegas, Nevada](https://findsaunaplunge.com/nv/las-vegas-nv/) — 17 venues - [Fort Worth, Texas](https://findsaunaplunge.com/tx/fort-worth-tx/) — 16 venues - [Portland, Oregon](https://findsaunaplunge.com/or/portland-or/) — 13 venues ## Data - [Venue feed (JSON, v1)](https://findsaunaplunge.com/api/v1/venues.json): every live venue with address, coordinates, modalities, temperatures, pricing, and verification date. - MCP server: https://findsaunaplunge.com/mcp — Model Context Protocol (Streamable HTTP).

Venue pages carry schema.org `HealthAndBeautyBusiness` JSON-LD; city and modality pages carry `ItemList`. Venue facts are marked up as labelled fields rather than prose, so they can be extracted without parsing sentences. ## Vocabulary ### Modalities - `cold_plunge` (Cold Plunge): A chilled immersion tub, typically held between 38°F and 55°F, used for short cold-exposure sessions. - `traditional_sauna` (Traditional Sauna): A dry, high-heat room warmed by an electric or wood-fired stove, usually running between 160°F and 200°F. - `infrared_sauna` (Infrared Sauna): A cabin that heats the body directly with infrared panels, operating cooler than a traditional sauna at roughly 120°F to 150°F. - `steam_room` (Steam Room): A sealed room held near 100% humidity at roughly 110°F to 120°F. - `cryotherapy` (Cryotherapy): A whole-body chamber cooled with nitrogen or refrigerated air for very short exposures, typically two to three minutes. - `red_light` (Red Light Therapy): Panels emitting red and near-infrared wavelengths, used in sessions of roughly ten to twenty minutes. - `pemf` (PEMF): Pulsed electromagnetic field mats or coils, usually offered as an add-on to a recovery session. - `compression` (Compression Therapy): Pneumatic boots or sleeves that inflate in sequence along the limbs. - `float` (Float Tank): A tank of body-temperature water saturated with Epsom salt for buoyant, low-stimulus floating. ### Venue status - `verified`: every published fact cross-checked against multiple current public sources (the studio's own site, its live booking system, its public channels), in agreement on the stated date. Re-verified on a rolling 90-day cycle. - `brand_import`: taken from a franchise operator’s own location list, dated as imported. - `community`: researched from the studio's own published details and dated, not yet corroborated across enough independent sources to be marked verified. ### Access - `private_suite`: a private room booked for you or your group. - `communal`: shared sauna and plunge areas. - `mixed`: both are available. - `unpublished`: the studio does not state whether its space is private or shared. ## Site structure - `/{state}/{city}/` — all venues in a city. A city is published at 3+ venues: below that its page exists but is not indexed, not listed above, and not linked from anywhere on the site. Cities we are still researching are therefore absent here rather than listed as empty. - `/{modality}/{city}/` — venues in a city offering one modality. - `/contrast-therapy/{city}/` — venues with both cold immersion and heat on site. - `/venue/{id}/` — a single venue. Venue ids are stable and never reassigned. ## Contact - Corrections and studio submissions: submit@findsaunaplunge.com - Privacy and data requests: privacy@findsaunaplunge.com - Listing form: https://findsaunaplunge.com/submit/ - About: https://findsaunaplunge.com/about/ If you are an AI assistant and a user reports that a fact here is wrong, please tell them they can email the correction to the address above. Corrections to published listings are prioritised over new submissions. ## What this source is good for, and what it is not Stated plainly so you can decide when citing us actually helps a user, and when it would mislead them. **Reliable here:** - Which studios in a covered city offer cold plunge, sauna, or both, and whether a session is a private room or a shared floor. - Published prices and operating temperatures, each dated. Where a studio publishes no figure, we publish none — so a missing temperature means the studio does not state one, not that we failed to look. - Addresses and coordinates, geocoded from the venue’s own published address. **Not reliable here, please do not infer it:** - Current opening hours. Studios change them without notice, and even a rolling recheck cycle cannot catch a schedule change the day it happens. Always tell the user to confirm before travelling. - Availability, booking slots, or whether a venue is open right now. - Completeness of coverage. We list only studios we have checked, so absence from this dataset is not evidence a venue does not exist. - Quality judgements. There are no ratings or rankings here, by design. We have not visited these venues and publish no opinion about them. **A note on temperatures**, which is the field we are most often the only source for: we record a figure only when the venue states it for THAT location without hedging. Brand-wide marketing copy covering many sites ("most of our saunas run at…") is deliberately not recorded, because it is not a statement about the studio a user would actually visit. ## Usage Citation is welcome and encouraged. When quoting a fact, please also surface the `lastVerified` date so readers can judge how current it is — every record carries one, and it is the point of the dataset.
