Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy combines increased concentrations of oxygen with elevated levels of pressure inside a comfortable and relaxing hyperbaric chamber. The combination of oxygen and pressure is therapeutic and can assist the natural healing of the body. HBOT is often used to assist in the treatment of many conditions that respond to the availability of more oxygen. HBOT fights infection, reduces inflammation, optimizes cellular function, and accelerates healing from sports injury, accident, stroke, mild traumatic brain injury, concussion, diabetes, ischemia, and a range of autoimmune conditions.
Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy
Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy is a “next wave” health modality providing an alternative pathway to wellness and complements traditional and conventional medicine. PEMF is a drug-free, non-invasive, pain-relief treatment that promotes accelerated healing for ailments and injuries. It can assist with sleep, circulation, blood oxygenation, inflammation, detoxification, and heals and rejuvenates bone and tissue. PEMF is used for the treatment of a range of acute and chronic conditions from pain and short-term injury to immune compromised health concerns. If you wish to know more about this exciting health system and how it can assist you, call us today.
NEUROFEEDBACK Therapy
Neurofeedback therapy (NFT) is an evidence-based treatment that trains the brain to become balanced and regulated. A balanced brain processes information efficiently and effectively, and results in stable thoughts and feelings. NFT corrects neural dysregulation leading to better brain function and less side effects; and works well in combination with other psychological therapies. NFT is often utilized in the assessment and treatment of a range of conditions including ADHD, ASD, OCD, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, sleep disorders, and sports and optimal business performance.
MASSAGE: Remedial, Sports, Deep Tissue, Relaxation
Massage is therapeutic and assists in stimulating the blood supply, mobilizing joints, and repairing damaged tissue. Regular massage can help in managing the recurrence or prevention of injury, increase relaxation, and improve sense of well-being. Sports massage can reduce cramps and spasms, relax strained muscles, and increase range of motion. Many acute and chronic conditions can be assisted or relieved by incorporating the therapeutic effects of remedial massage. Talk with our therapists and choose the massage best for you.
