Whole body cryotherapy is the exposure of a persons skin temperatures of -130 to -170 degrees Celsius for a period of three minutes or less. When exposed to this temperature, it activates the body's response to extreme cold. The skin responds by increasing collagen production, regaining elasticity and vasoconstriction to keep the core temperature even. After the procedure, vasodilation occurs resulting in a systemic flush of toxins and stored deposits. With regular use, cryotherapy can aid in decreasing inflammation, improving chronic skin conditions, and much more!
Red Light Therapy or Infrared Light Therapy also known as Photo-biomodulation uses frequencies of red light waves that work with the mitochondria, giving your cells a boost of energy allowing them to do their work more efficiently including but not limited to repairing the skin, boosting new cell growth, enhancing skin rejuvenation, reducing inflammation, aiding in muscle recovery by temporarily increasing blood circulation and relaxing muscles.
An effective red light therapy sessions lasts between 10 and 20 minutes, as often as every day. The lights are gently warming and very bright. Eye protection is not necessary but is available for you to use if you prefer. The lights are not able to penetrate clothing or fabrics, therefore you must uncover the areas of your body you want treated by the lights.The Normatec Pulse Recovery System is a dynamic compression device designed for recovery and rehab. The system uses compression to condense blood into localized areas for seconds at a time. This causes higher levels of oxygen into individual muscles in the arms, legs, and hip area which speeds up muscle recovery. Overall lymph drainage is boosted, along with a boost in circulation, which flushes lactic acid out of the arms, legs and hip area.
Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field (PEMF) therapy uses magnetic fields to heal and energize the body. PEMF therapy differs from other electrotherapies in that it is non-contact. Meaning there are no electrodes or pads making direct contact with the body. Here at The Wellness and Recovery Lounge, we have two PEMF therapy options. The HU=GO and the Bemer.
The HU=GO is a high intensity PEMF therapy that induces electrical changes within and around the cells, which influences the cell behavior. This results in improved circulation and oxygenation, better transport of nutrients and more energy, PEMF also accelerates the healing process by stimulating the body to repair damaged tissue, while significantly reducing pain. PEMFs also induce reflexology and acupuncture-like actions in the body.
HU=GO sessions run 12 minutes in duration. For your session, you may choose between 1 body mat, sandwiched between 2 body mats or 1 body mat and a targeted coil. The HU=GO can be used for beauty and aging, increase performance and endurance, enhanced muscle function, faster recovery after exercise, accelerate healing of injuries, strengthen the cardiovascular system, reduce pain, boost your immune system, increase energy, improve the functionality of your neurological system, endocrine system, and metabolism, for healing and regeneration, and to improve your mental health.The Bemer is a low intensity PEMF therapy that increases blood flow and circulation getting better oxygenated blood into extremities and injured muscles, tissues, and bones. Blood is the body's universal means of transport. Oxygen, nutrients, chemical messengers (hormones), immune cells, etc are all transported through our blood. Only when all of our body's cells, tissues, and organs are adequately nourished and all metabolic waste products removed, can we be healthy and productive and our body function properly. The optimal regulation of circulation is a prerequisite for ensuring good levels of health and fitness.
The oxygen bar is coupled with aromatherapy to provide stress reduction, relaxation, boost immunity, increase energy and alertness, among many other benefits. Our atmospheres oxygen concentration is approximately 21%. The oxygen bar provides a boost of approximately 98% oxygen concentration and is recommended to be used for up to 20 minutes a day. We offer a variety of aromatherapy options to choose from to better customize your session and meet your needs.
T-shock therapy uses a wand to apply alternating warm and cold temperatures to the skin. The rapid switching between temperatures shocks the cells, which can improve blood circulation, reduce swelling and relieve pain from arthritis, injuries, muscle strains, and tendonitis.
