Welcome to Recovery Central

Welcome to NormaTec Compression Therapy at Recovery Central, where we're thrilled to

introduce you to the many benefits of this innovative therapy. Whether you're an athlete,

fitness enthusiast, or on a wellness journey, NormaTec Systems offer a range of advantages:

 

- Reducing swelling, inflammation, and fluid accumulation

- Eliminating toxins through the lymphatic system

- Improving range of motion

- Enhancing circulation

- Speeding up recovery time

 

NormaTec compression boots are designed to aid recovery and circulation using patented technology that applies compressed air to massage your limbs, mobilize fluid, and accelerate recovery, akin to a professional massage but with advanced technology for superior recovery and performance.

 

NormaTec compression therapy employs Sequential Pulse Technology, combining pulsing, gradients, and distal release. The pulsing action mimics muscle-pumping during exercise, moving fluid out of the limbs, while gradient technology prevents fluid backflow and distal release optimizes pressure. This process enhances blood flow, removes waste, reduces inflammation and muscle soreness, and speeds up recovery.

 

For athletes and fitness enthusiasts, NormaTec improves performance by rejuvenating muscle tissue, increasing flexibility, reducing soreness and fatigue, maintaining muscle elasticity, and promoting healthy circulation, thus helping prevent injuries.

Welcome to the world of infrared sauna therapy at Recovery Central. Whether you're an elite athlete,

a wellness enthusiast, or simply curious about this beneficial practice, we're excited to have you in

studioand enjoy the many advantages this service provides.

 

The benefits of infrared sauna therapy encompass:

 

- Reduction of stress and fatigue

- Boosting metabolism and aiding in weight loss

- Alleviating muscle pain and easing joint stiffness

- Detoxifying the body and enhancing skin health

- Improving the appearance of cellulite

 

In contrast to traditional saunas that warm the air to heat the body, infrared saunas utilise infrared light to directly heat your body. This light, though unseen by the human eye, penetrates deeper into the skin, raising your core body temperature while providing a comfortable and soothing experience.

 

The physiological benefits of infrared sauna therapy are extensive and significant. The deep heat penetration enhances circulation, mimicking the effects of a light cardiovascular workout. This improved blood flow facilitates better delivery of oxygen and nutrients to all parts of your body, aiding in recovery, reducing inflammation, and promoting overall well-being.

 

The heat generated by the infrared sauna induces sweating, aiding in the detoxification process. By helping eliminate toxins, infrared saunas contribute to maintaining a robust immune system and enhancing skin health.

 

From a performance standpoint, regular infrared sauna sessions can assist in muscle recovery, alleviate post-workout soreness, and enhance flexibility. They may also lead to improved endurance as heat adaptation improves your body's temperature regulation efficiency, a crucial element in athletic performance.

 

In addition to its physical benefits, infrared sauna therapy offers numerous psychological advantages. The soothing heat promotes deep relaxation and stress relief, enhances mood, and supports better sleep. Consistent sauna use can serve as a mental health booster, providing a serene environment to unwind and recharge.

 

Furthermore, the routine of regular sauna sessions can cultivate mindfulness. This dedicated self-care time can evolve into a meditative practice, fostering greater self-awareness and encouraging a mindful lifestyle.

Introducing Contrast Therapy, also known as hot and cold therapy pools, which harnesses

the body’s innate healing abilities to alleviate symptoms of various medical conditions and

promote overall health and wellness. Our large hot and cold plunge pools, equipped with

cutting-edge technology including touch screen features and precise cooling systems,

are designed to be used individually or in combination as part of your wellness regimen.

​

The benefits of hot and cold therapy are numerous:

 

- Reduces inflammation

- Improves lymphatic, circulatory, and digestive systems

- Relieves fatigue and pain

- Increases recovery times and mobility

 

Hot and cold water contrast therapy involves alternating immersions in hot and cold water, with the cold water occasionally substituted with an ice bath. This alternating temperature exposure stimulates vasodilation and vasoconstriction, enhancing blood flow and nutrient delivery to muscles for faster recovery and repair.

 

Scientifically, this therapy mechanism is well-supported. Hot water expands blood vessels, increasing blood flow and heat transfer, while cold water constricts vessels, redirecting blood to vital organs. This 'pumping' action aids in flushing out metabolic waste and replenishing muscles with oxygenated blood, benefiting athletic performance and recovery.

 

Beyond its physical advantages, contrast therapy also offers psychological benefits. The heat induces relaxation, while cold water invigorates, reducing stress and enhancing mood. Engaging in this therapy cultivates mindfulness, requiring focus during transitions and promoting mental resilience and presence in the moment.
