wellness & recovery collection
the Wellness & Recovery Collection is designed and curated to help you optimize your body for performance, stress tolerance and overall resilience.
we think of the modalities in this collection as either "guided" or "self-guided". a guided modality is with a practitioner, either a PT or a massage therapist, with you during the session. a self-guided modality is one where you are given guidance and then you move through the modality independently.
whichever option you choose, please give us a call to schedule.
guided modalities

self-guided modalities
guidance given if needed, then you move through independently
self-guided modalities
our cells, which are our body’s building blocks, are constantly going through processes of growth and decay; too much of either is not a good thing, which can lead to dysfunction and disease. the more we give to our bodies the better our bodies function. the Wellness & Recovery Collection is curated to help you optimize your body for performance, stress tolerance and overall resilience using the below modalities.
Finnish sauna
hot, dry or steam, cedar sauna: used as part of the cold/heat shock protocol or on its own. customized to your ideal temperature.
cold plunge
therapeutic temperature cold plunge pool. used as part of the hot/cold protocol. kept at your ideal temperature for maximum therapeutic benefit.
recovery compression
circulation is the active recovery gold standard. lymphatic drainage, and recovery assistance when engaged in repetative activities or edema. circulation aided by the compression boots relieve the affects of fluid retention in the body. retrain the body to perform at its best.

FAQs
what is cold/heat shock protocol?
the ultimate goal is to increase our internal temperature to activate and up-regulate the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs). heat shock proteins are the chaperones and housekeepers to all cellular processes in our body to help protect our cell from various kinds of damage. our cells, which are our body’s building blocks, are constantly going through processes of growth and decay; too much of either is not a good thing, which can lead to dysfunction and disease. heat shock proteins, when active, help to maintain cellular homeostasis and regular cell metabolism. they do this through many complex processes, but in short chaperone the processes so that they are completed and followed through as planned, as well as housekeep and cleanup the break down and regeneration of our cells.
HSP’s have been studied to have positive effects on cancer therapy, neuro-degenerative disease, cerebral and myocardia ischemia, and inflammation (to name a few).
so, how does the heat/cold protocol look in practice?
we provoke this by providing you a cold plunge tub and a hot Finnish Sauna to alternate between. by alternating between the two, the body reacts to these elevated temperatures by regulating core temperature to return to homeostasis.
how does this relate to PT?
supporting services to compliment your overall physical therapy and performance practice.
