Brickell · SW 9th St
The Brickell floor is set up for short private contrast blocks rather than a communal bathhouse circuit. Pause's FAQ says memberships are location-exclusive by…
Coral Gables · Palermo Ave
Choose Coral Gables when you want suite contrast without going into Brickell proper. The suite format matches Brickell, but the neighborhood framing is quieter…
Upper Buena Vista · NE 2nd Ave
Outdoor social wellness club with Miami's first Nomad Sauna plus cold plunges under open sky. More community ritual than private suite. Praxium Google mirror…

Open mapFor a private infrared suite with a real plunge, Pause Studio (Brickell and Coral Gables) and SweatHouz (Aventura) are the most bookable picks. For open-sky communal contrast, SILA Miami in Upper Buena Vista. For a classic all-day bathhouse with published 34°F plunges, Russian & Turkish Baths (Miami Beach), or Hürrem Hammam in North Miami for a Turkish hammam day. Near the bay, Healthspan and The Ice Room offer shorter Brickell sessions.
We prioritize studios with clear heat plus cold. Most live listings pair infrared, Nomad, traditional, or hammam heat with immersion plunge. Hürrem uses an ice igloo rather than a plunge tub. We do not list float-only, massage-only, or yoga-only rooms as contrast when plunge access is missing. Agni stays on the list because the Fire and Ice Lounge publishes infrared plus plunge, even though lounge access often rides class packs.
Pause, SweatHouz, and DUO are quieter private suites. SILA is outdoor and social. Russian & Turkish Baths Miami Beach and Hürrem Hammam are communal bathhouse or hammam floors. Agni is yoga-adjacent with a lounge circuit. First timers often start private; bathhouse and outdoor feel more like a ritual once you know the pace. For the Miami Beach vs North Miami head-to-head, see Russian Baths vs Hürrem Hammam.
From our studio notes: The Plunge and Sauna Method METHOD sessions ~$45 (plunge-only or sauna-only $30), Hydrology Wellness cold plunge ~$50 / infrared ~$45, DUO singles $50 (October 19, 2026 check), SweatHouz Aventura singles $70 with a $35 intro (October 9, 2026 check), Russian & Turkish Baths all-day ~$65, Hürrem day passes ~$85 to $125, SILA day passes near ~$99, and Pause Brickell and Coral Gables run on credit memberships from $159/mo Core to $479/mo VIP (October 9, 2026 check) rather than a flat drop-in dollar. Agni lounge access typically rides class packs. Confirm live rates before you book.
No. Pause uses credits, DUO sells singles and packs, SILA offers day passes, SweatHouz sells sessions plus memberships, and The Plunge and Sauna Method publishes METHOD, plunge-only, and sauna-only drop-ins. Memberships help if you go weekly, but Pause memberships bought at Brickell also redeem at Coral Gables (and the reverse), while Pause packages and gift cards stay with the studio where you bought them.
Yes at Pause Brickell and Coral Gables based on our last check. SILA, SweatHouz Aventura, DUO, and Agni were unknown for ClassPass on that same pass. Treat ClassPass as a trial channel at Pause, confirm live credits in the app, and expect to book most other sessions direct.
Every studio on this Miami list publishes immersion plunge with heat. There is no shower-only Perspire-style listing here. Still confirm tub access vs lounge rules at Agni before you assume a walk-in plunge.
Same private infrared and plunge model and shared credits. Pick Brickell for downtown towers and SW 9th access; pick Coral Gables for Palermo Ave and a quieter Gables trip. Coral Gables publishes a phone; Brickell did not on our last check.
Pause Brickell on SW 9th for downtown private suites. Pause Coral Gables on Palermo Ave for quieter Gables access and a published phone. Hydrology Wellness on S Dixie Hwy is the infrared plus plunge alternative inside a medical wellness center when you want a-la-carte sessions instead of Pause credits. Memberships are listed as cross-redeemable between the two Miami Pause rooms on the operator pages. The hub compares formats; each studio page is where you book.
SILA Upper Buena Vista is the outdoor communal Nomad sauna and plunge pick. Pause Brickell / Coral Gables and SweatHouz Aventura are locked private infrared suites with real plunges. DUO Recovery is a private infrared sauna and cold plunge suite in Miami Lakes. Agni is a MiMo / Biscayne fire-and-ice lounge format.
SweatHouz Aventura for a north-corridor private infrared + plunge suite when you do not want to drive into Brickell or Coral Gables.
Pause Brickell (or Coral Gables) for Pause credit private suites and the clearer ClassPass trial path. DUO Recovery in Miami Lakes for a $50 private suite with its own sauna and plunge, or $30 a session on the 10-pack. Both are private; pick by drive and how you want to pay.
The Plunge and Sauna Method on SW 81st for a dedicated heat and cold studio outside Brickell. Book The METHOD (~$45) or plunge-only / sauna-only ($30). Hours were not published on the operator site on our last check, so confirm open times on the site or by phone before you go.
A studio is usually a timed private or small communal contrast room. A bathhouse is a day-pass multi-room heat and cold house. A banya is a Russian or Ukrainian-style wet or dry bathhouse. A jjimjilbang is a Korean spa with heat rooms and cold pools. Confirm format on the venue site before you book.
