ELEMENTAL SOCIAL WELLNESS CLUB
About Us
WHERE COLD,
HEAT, BREATH, AND INTENTION MEET
At Elemental, we create an environment of excellence that fosters transformation through cold, heat, breathwork, conscious conversation, and innovative wellness technology.
Our mission is to cultivate a community that supports personal growth and a state of biocoherence—where body, mind, and energy are fully aligned. By embracing discomfort, we guide our members to unlock their full physical, mental, and emotional potential.
Elemental is a space for building resilience, practicing mindfulness, and deepening our sense of interconnectedness.
MORE THAN A COLD PLUNGE STUDIO
At Elemental, we’re redefining what a cold plunge studio can be. In addition to our cutting-edge technologies, we also offer a unique approach to wellness and mindfulness.
​​
Open Concept: Our studio is rooted in community. All of our contrast therapy experiences are held in shared, open spaces to promote connection and safety.
​
Expert Guides: Our team has rich expertise and experience. Elemental guides are certified through the Søberg Institute in the Thermalist Method®, a science-backed protocol for cold and heat exposure.
​
Collaborative Wellness: We don't stop at cold and heat exposure. Our studio showcases a variety of biohacking technology to expand wellness offerings to include red light bed, hydrogen bath, and other practices that transform mind, body, and energy.
MEET OUR FOUNDER, ELISE
It started with one plunge.
On December 18, 2022, Elise Free took her first cold plunge. What began as a simple experiment quickly became a daily practice. The clarity, resilience, and vitality she experienced were undeniable—and she never stopped.
At first, Elise shared the practice with a few friends. Then neighbors. Soon strangers were asking to try it too. What started with a single plunge organically grew into a community of people discovering the power of intentional heat, cold, breath, and recovery.
Today, Elise is expanding that vision through Elemental Social Wellness Club, bringing a new kind of wellness experience to Cleveland—one rooted in both science and connection.
Elise is deeply committed to ongoing education in the world of health optimization and recovery. She regularly attends leading biohacking conferences and studies emerging research around longevity and resilience. At Elemental, she brings these modern tools together with the ancient practices she has studied for years, including meditation, energy work, and mindset training.
Her vision is simple: to create a space where people can reset their nervous systems, reconnect with themselves, and experience the power of community.
What began with one cold plunge has grown into something much bigger—and Elise is proud to share it with Cleveland.
