Most of us are aware of the health benefits of warm water hydrotherapy for muscles and relaxation, but what about cold water therapy?
Simplifying and Maximizing Immune Health
As we know, our bodies require light, water and nutrients for energy. Our intelligent body knows how to convert each of these into exactly what it needs in order to heal. When we give ourselves the building blocks for optimal health, our body knows exactly what to do with them. Red light therapy is a powerful technology in that it concentrates the naturally occurring wavelengths of red and near infrared light, to optimize bodily functions.

PEMF Therapy: What is it?
PEMF or Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields use electricity to support the body in a natural recovery process as it essentially treats our cells like batteries and “charges them up”. A common misconception is that these electromagnetic waves (EMFs) are dangerous, but they are not the same as EMFs from things like microwaves or x-ray machines, as they differ in how quickly the wavelength of electricity moves (the frequency) and how long the waves are exposed to the body (duration), making them healing instead of harmful. Just like wavelengths of electricity in nature, PEMF works at a low and slow rate, in short bursts.
InBody Analyzer
The InBody Analyzer uses safe, low-level electrical currents that run through hand and foot electrodes to measure body composition which gives us a lot more information that just measuring your weight, or even measuring your BMI using your height, weight and age. The more information you have, the better. The simple difference between weight and body composition is that weight is a measure of muscle, fat, and bones in the body, but body composition gives you the percentage of each which gives us much more information.

The Science of Compression Therapy
Compression therapy uses consistent pressure created by air inflating the Normatec Device to apply pressure to the arms, legs or hips, depending on the device used. The Normatec segmentally compresses from the hands or legs, up to the torso to increase the flow of blood and lymph to heart.
An Introduction to Cold Therapy
In today’s world, cold therapy has gained increasing interest with athletes, doctors, health nuts, and general society due to its various benefits, and yes the science does live up to the hype! Not only does cold therapy support the basic foundational needs of the body, such as reducing inflammation, detoxing the body and flushing out cellular waste, but it also supports in reducing stress, improving mood and overall alertness.

Benjamin Button Effect
The Benjamin Button effect. A 2008 movie featuring actor Brad Pitt is born looking like a 70-year-old man as he grows old in years, his body becomes younger. There is a lot more to the movie with a very intriguing sequence of events but ultimately let’s focus on the idea of growing older and our body becoming younger. The title is catchy and hopefully it enticed you to stop, click and listen.
