The Vibe:
Let's face it - the sauna is the new pub. Only here, you leave with clear skin and regulated cortisol instead of regret and a kebab. XtraClubs Green Square flips the script on how Sydney socialises think ice baths over beers, infrared over IPAs.
Housed in a converted warehouse just 100 metres from Green Square Station, this place is pure architectural exhale: crazy-pave travertine underfoot, soaring windows, and light-drenched zones designed to make your nervous system unclench on sight. You’ll find two Finnish saunas (including a dedicated no-talking zone), four infrared pods, six industrial-strength ice baths, and a steam room that’s basically a social club in disguise.
But what really puts Xtra on the map? The membership model. Starting at $27.95 a week, you’re getting access to the kind of wellness rituals that usually cost $50 a pop, including daily off-peak visits and weekly peak sessions.
It works because the regulars actually come back. Thrive members get unlimited everything, plus towel service and full bragging rights. Open 6am to 11pm, seven days a week, it’s recovery on your schedule - not your physio’s.
What They Do:
This is sweat equity in your future self. Whether you’re biohacking, cold plunging, or just trying to shake off office burnout, XtraClubs blends tradition with tech. Think thermal cycling, sauna protocols, group chill zones, and that elusive thing we call peace and quiet.

The Diagnostics Game Changer:
The sauna isn’t just hot, it’s social engineering. Silent zones if you're vibing solo. Sweat socials if you're ready to network half-naked. You don’t just recover here. You reset, reconnect, and recalibrate, whether it’s 6am before work or 10:59pm after your third existential crisis of the day.
