LED LIGHTSTIM FULL BODY BED In the wake of the opioid misuse epidemic, LED Light Stimulation, or photobiomodulation therapy, is FDA cleared to temporarily increase blood circulation and reduce inflammation naturally and without side effects to relieve chronic pain and speed healing. Hundreds of studies have shown that this therapy can also increase the body’s ability to replace ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) and Nitric Oxide, which improves post-exercise recovery and muscle regeneration and has been shown to enhance athletic performance. Lisa adds, “We have clients who are athletes, individuals recovering from cancer or others who are in chronic pain. They all use our red-light therapy for their specific needs.” Fred is fond of saying, “It is the Mother of all Beds, and as with all of our services, all that is required is to lay down and relax, take a nap, or meditate, which is helpful for the mind.” FLOTATION THERAPY Housing the largest flotation device around, the oversized 7’ x 6’ x 7’ flotation suite is a one-hour session of GLORIOUS. With 150 gallons of water maintained at a constant temperature of 93.5 degrees (the temperature of your skin) and 1,800 pounds of Epson Salt, it allows the body to experience anti-gravity while floating effortlessly. The suite is equipped with lights, music and an internal intercom, which can all be controlled by the user. Fred explains, “We wanted to provide everyone with an opportunity to experience floating, so we went out and got the largest unit available with all the options.” If you are new to floating and want to ease your way in, the suite is roomy and comfortable, cutting back on the claustrophobic effect of float pods. Old-school meditation folks can cut the lights and music and go totally dark providing one of the most conducive environments for meditation. The physical effect is an hour of total recovery for joints and muscles as well as relief from headaches, migraines and concussions. Recent studies show it also can help with autism and/or ADHD. And the suite is large enough to accommodate two adults for that special “couples float.” HIMALAYAN SALT THERAPY The Himalayan salt therapy is provided in a 15’ x 15’ x 8’, 6-seat room with over 1,400 genuine Himalayan salt bricks on the walls and over 2 tons of ground Himalayan salt on the floor. Fashioned to resemble a salt mine, the room is powered by a Global Halotherapy Solutions HALOFX halogenerator that fills the room with dry salt aerosol, an odorless, colorless dust application. “The respiratory and dermatological benefits of salt is centuries old,” says Lisa. “Eastern cultures have been using this therapy for centuries to provide temporary relief from sinus issues, allergies, sore throat, lung disorders such as COPD and asthma as well as skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis or seborrhea. Fred has suffered from COPD and eczema for years and uses the room every morning to meditate, the proverbial 1-2-3 punch.” Ultimately, the duo did extensive research to ensure their clients are provided a welcoming, calm, and safe environment to enjoy. “We looked at every aspect of the business, taking all things into consideration. You really must experience it to get the full effect and we’re sure you won’t be disappointed,” Fred says.
