Everything You Need To Know

What to expect so you can arrive confident and ready to recover

What Is The R3 Flow?

The R3 Flow is a guided, one hour recovery sequence that combines compression, heat, cold, and light in a specific order. Each session follows the same structure to support circulation, nervous system regulation, and full body recovery without guesswork.

Do I choose my treatments during a session?

No. Every visit follows the full R3 Flow. The order and timing are intentional and designed to work together. You do not need to decide what to do or how long to stay. We guide the entire experience.

Is R3 only for athletes?

No. R3 is built for anyone who wants to feel better, think clearly, and recover efficiently. Our members include athletes, professionals, and people managing daily stress who want a structured recovery routine.

How often should I do the R3 Flow?

Most people feel benefits after their first session. Long term results come from consistency. Weekly or multi weekly visits allow recovery to become a routine rather than a reset, which is why memberships and packs are designed to support repeat visits.

What should I bring or wear?

Swimsuits, swim trunks, or bathing suits are required in all plunge pools. No pants, t-shirts, or workout gear are allowed in the tubs. Please remove lotions, oils, and tanning products before your session. Towels, water, changing rooms and guidance are all provided.

Do I need experience with cold plunges or saunas?

No. The R3 Flow is guided from start to finish. Our team helps you move through each phase safely and comfortably, even if it is your first time.

What is the difference between the 3 Day Trial, Single Session, Session Packs, and Unlimited Membership?

The 3 Day Trial is designed for new guests to experience the R3 Flow on consecutive days and feel the impact of consistent recovery. A Single Session is a one time R3 Flow experience that introduces the full recovery sequence. Session Packs offer multiple R3 Flow sessions to use on your own schedule without a monthly commitment. Unlimited Membership is for those who want recovery fully integrated into their lifestyle, with ongoing access and priority scheduling so recovery becomes a ritual, not an occasional visit.

How do I book my first session?

First time guests will be prompted to create a Mindbody profile when booking. This makes scheduling faster and smoother for future visits. You can also call us directly to book. Once scheduled, you will receive a reminder text before your session.

Went in today for the first time after a big swim in the ocean just looking for a sauna , this facility is really badass and they had quite a bit more . Sammy at the front desk was very nice and friendly and explained everything to me and my buddy and brought us through the whole wellness routine from compression to sauna to cold plunge hot tub to red light room. Left feeling like I had just hit a speedball , totally relaxed but also refreshed and energized for the day. In the zone 100%. . Will be returning for sure . Not even a review guy typically but was such an excellent experience I felt I had to leave one .

This place is hands-down the best investment I can make. It relaxes me so much and gets me ready for my busy day. Sammy at the front desk is so helpful and nice, And very knowledgeable about all the different modalities. They offer compression on hips, arms, and legs (I recommend legs and arms at the same time, feels so good!) And then you go to the sauna, then cold plunge (There are two cold plunges one is colder than the other, but both are very cold still) And finish with medical grade red light therapy. The facilities are immaculate and beautifully designed. Highly recommend!

Such an amazing way to spend my birthday. The recovery studio was clean, calming, and so well set up with the sauna, hot tub, and cold plunges. Natalie was incredibly helpful walking me through everything and making the experience feel easy and welcoming. Left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and already excited to come back.

R3 Recovery Center is where it’s at! Living in a restless, fast paced society, rest and recovery are a huge component in having a balanced life and thriving in it. I love the structure and the entire experience at R3, the staff is so friendly and made sure I was comfortable. If you aren’t resting and recovering, you gotta start here at R3, they have every healing modality from compression, sauna, cold plunge, jacuzzi and red light therapy. The eye cream and moisturizers were a nice touch! Thank you Kara, Sami and team!

My new favorite recovery spot! The owners Jason and Kara did an amazing job creating a holistic wellness routine with a lot of thought and work put into creating a unique experience. As a health care profession I am always looking for ways to optimize my health - R3 recovery has all the tools you need to help your body heal and energize your mitochondria! Thank you again couldn’t recommend R3 more!!

had an amazing recovery session at R3! I left feeling relaxed, re-centered, and glowing! The owner, Jason was very kind and knowledgeable about all the equipment. The wellness center is beautifully curated and the equipment is top of the line! Can’t wait to be back!

This studio is amazing. Very clean, staff is super friendly and professional. It is a great way to recover. I was a little concerned about the cold plunge but Kara coached me through it and now I am hooked. Such a great feeling! Definitely leave feeling lighter and ready for the next workout. Pro tip: this is also a great way to prepare for a long flight. I did this before leaving for a business trip to Europe and felt great! If only they had on in Heathrow for my layover!

R3 is such a gem! I came here after getting back from a girls trip to Mexico and this was the exact reset I needed after traveling. I started my flow with the compression boots, then sauna, cold plunge, hot tub, cold plunge again and ended with red light therapy. I love that they have two cold plunges at different temperatures, so you can choose your level of intensity or alternate between the two like I did.

The space itself is absolutely beautiful and tranquil, every detail feels intentional and calming. The location is also great and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. This has quickly become one of my favorite wellness spots in San Diego!
