Trying to decide between Framework’s two Nashville studios? Both offer traditional sauna and cold plunge contrast therapy, but the experience is different. Flagship is a full indoor-outdoor space with more amenities, while Backyard is a simpler, fully outdoor option with a lower price point and more casual feel.

Contrast therapy teaches the body through change: heat to cold, expansion to contraction, effort to rest. At Framework, guided sauna and cold classes have always reflected that principle. This month, yoga returns as another way to move through the cycle.

Winter pulls us indoors, but your biology still expects light, air, and environmental variation. Peer-reviewed research shows that even brief outdoor exposure supports circadian rhythm, metabolic flexibility, and nervous system regulation. Here’s why Framework keeps the outdoors at the center of the experience, even in winter.
