Understanding cocoon fitness pod.
01
What the Cocoon pod is
The Cocoon is a wellness pod that pairs infrared warmth with easy, low-impact movement. You get a gentle workout and a natural sweat in one session, without it feeling like a gym. At Exhale, a session lasts 30 minutes and works for any fitness level. Ask us about the pod's settings when you book, and we will tailor them to you.
02
How a session works
Before your first session, we show you how the pod works and set it up for you. Then you move gently inside the warmth and work up a natural sweat at your own pace. Nothing about it should feel like a hard gym workout. Afterward you cool down, rehydrate and rest before heading out. We explain everything first, so you know exactly what to expect.
03
What heat does to your body
Heat sessions ask a lot of your body, even when you are lying still. Research on dry saunas shows your skin warms within minutes and you can lose about a pint of sweat. Your pulse can climb by 30 percent or more. Most healthy people handle this well. It is also why water, a slow cool down and listening to your body matter so much.
04
Getting ready and aftercare
Wear comfortable clothes you can move in. Drink water before you arrive, and drink more afterward, since one Harvard Health guide suggests two to four glasses of cool water after heat. Skip alcohol before and after your session. Do not use the pod if you feel ill. If you feel unwell during the session, stop, and let us know right away.

FAQ
Cocoon Fitness Pod, answered.
How much does cocoon fitness pod cost at Exhale?
Cocoon Fitness Pod, 30 minutes: $30. Prices as listed on Exhale's Square booking page, October 2026. Check Square for current prices.
Is the Cocoon Fitness Pod hard to use?
No, the Cocoon Fitness Pod is easy to use. It suits every fitness level, from very active guests to people just starting out. Before your first session, we walk you through how the pod works and set it up for you. The movement is gentle and low impact, and you go at your own pace. If anything feels too warm, let us know.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothes you can move in. You will be gently active in a warm space, so expect to sweat. Choose clothes you are happy to get a little damp, and plan to drink water afterward. If you have questions about anything else to bring, ask us when you book or call 727-641-1731.
How long is a session?
A Cocoon Fitness Pod session at Exhale is 30 minutes and costs $30. It is also part of our Self Care Day package. That visit includes a 60 minute massage, a Cocoon session, a 30 minute mineral float and tea, for $275. We ask for 24 hours notice if you need to change or cancel a booking.
Is it safe if I have a heart condition or take medication?
Check with your doctor first if you have heart disease, high blood pressure that is not controlled, or take regular medicine. Heat makes your heart work harder, and some medicines change how you sweat or handle heat. Examples include some blood pressure pills, water pills, antidepressants and antihistamines. Once your doctor says it is fine, we are glad to book you in.
Can I use the pod while pregnant?
Talk to your doctor or midwife before using the pod while pregnant. Raising your core body temperature in early pregnancy has been linked to a higher risk of neural tube defects. Health guidance for pregnancy suggests keeping heat sessions short and leaving if you feel too hot. Call us at 727-641-1731 once your provider has given you their advice.
Can I combine it with other services?
Yes, the Cocoon pod pairs well with other services at Exhale. It pairs well with the Full Spectrum Sauna, the Cold Plunge or HOCATT. You can also book it inside our Self Care Day with a massage, a float and tea. Ask us when you book, and we will help you plan the order of your visit.
