Fall is coming. The temperatures start dropping, it’s dark by 7:30 instead of 9, and suddenly it can feel a little harder to keep moving.
For many people, cooler weather also seems to bring more stiffness, achy joints, lower energy, or simply less motivation to get up and go.
Staying active is one of the best gifts you can give your body.
“Who do you serve here? Is it people who have gotten on in their years?”
This is a question we often get, and love the opportunity to clarify something important.
While many of our services are suitable for a wide range of ages – we welcome ALL of you! One of the driving factors for bringing this center to the Midwest was to provide innovative ways for those who refuse to let ‘age’ become their limiting factor.
Are you that person? Have you sought solutions for chronic pain/stiffness, fatigue or
low energy, dizziness, mood changes, sleep issues, and been told:
Regardless of where you may currently ‘feel’ aging happening. We want to help you stay or get back to those activities that light you up. Whether you are:
One of the ways to do that is to use our LED bed. And you may be thinking, “yeah, I know about red light therapy.”
You’re not wrong…but it goes a bit further.
What’s interesting is this type of technology is not new, and it’s not just used in wellness centers. More and more college and professional athletic programs are incorporating light therapy into their recovery protocols to help athletes heal faster and stay in the game.
In fact, A 2016 pilot study on university athletes found that 830 nm LED phototherapy reduced average return-to-play time from about 19 days to 9.6 days across a range of injuries, nearly cutting recovery time in half. Perhaps that’s why the U of I top athletes spend so much time in the University’s recovery center!
Most of us aren’t training for the next championship, yet if this level of support is trusted for high-performing athletes, why wouldn’t you use it to support your everyday strength, energy, and recovery, right here in your own backyard?
AND even more important…our LED bed is designed to allow your body to benefit from multiple layers of support working together at the same time. Rather than isolating one type of light, your body is supported by red, blue, and far infrared simultaneously, each working in its own way, but together creating an environment your body can use to recover, restore, and function at a higher level.
And from there, you can personalize your session even further by layering in specific frequency settings based on what your body may need most that day.
Working together, these lights support your body on multiple levels at once, helping create the kind of environment where recovery and restoration can happen more naturally.
Frequency Options too!?
Layering in a frequency during your session allows you to personalize the experience even further based on what your body may need most that day.
Some of the most common reasons people choose specific frequencies include support for:
Combining light and frequency supports your body in a way that goes beyond what you can consciously “try” to fix.
Many people leave their session feeling lighter, more relaxed, and more like themselves again.
And sometimes, we hear clients talking about feedback they get “You’re walking taller.”
Hormonal issues affect both men and women, but they often show up differently due to the primary hormones involved (testosterone for men, estrogen/progesterone for women) and life stages. Symptoms can overlap such as fatigue, mood changes, low energy, brain fog, sleep issues, weight shifts, but the patterns and “classic” signs vary.
Many men attribute these symptoms to stress, work or simply aging, but it’s often the body’s signal for support.
These types of changes can feel like a ‘rollercoaster’ – overwhelming and disruptive, especially when tied to cycle changes or life transitions.
Here we understand you, both men and women’s bodies communicate through these challenges a little bit differently, but our natural tools can help restore and regulate through these seasons.
We all know that sleep is essential, but did you know it’s more than just a time to rest? Sleep is critical for:
While we sleep, our bodies are given the time to repair and regenerate which boosts the immune system, improving cognitive function, and balancing stress hormones.
Sleep impacts everything—from our energy levels and emotional stability to our ability to focus and process information. And The National Sleep Foundation recommends that adults between 18 and 64 years old get seven to nine hours of sleep per night. However, the stark reality is that insomnia affects many with up to 32.8 percent of adults reporting they do not get enough sleep.
There are some simple things that you can do to maximize your opportunity to get your best sleep:
