MUSCLE RECOVERY TRAINING

We are offering a new form of training: Muscle Recovery!

Muscle Recovery sessions will consist of body tempering, KT taping, Guasha and/or cupping. Participants can choose two during their 30-minute session.

Muscle Recovery is a very important aspect to a training program, building strength and muscle. Recovery after exercise will also assist in preventing future injury and muscle spasms. This type of session will consist of your choice of one or a combination of the recovery methods listed. The session will be completed by our recovery specialist, Justin Grandy.

BODY TEMPERING

Body Tempering involves rolling various parts of our bodies with metal cylinders. The cylinder’s weight helps to relieve tightness of the muscles by breaking up trigger points and muscle adhesions. It is also reported to help rid our bodies of toxins, specifically from our fascia, veins and nerves. Body Tempering also helps prevent injuries such as hernias, tears, tweaks, muscle ruptures, and protect against trauma. It also helps promote and increase individual performance by allowing our bodies to work more effectively by ironing out muscle adhesions.

  • Quads
  • Hamstrings
  • Calves
  • Chest
  • Use on metal or surgical additions to the body
  • Break apart scar tissue
  • Relieve pain from bone related or joint injury

KT Taping is used to provide extra support for muscles and joints without restricting range of motion. It helps aid with muscle recovery, prevents cramping/muscle spasms, and enhances muscle development. Our personal trainer can apply the tape in your trouble area (it can be applied almost anywhere on your body!) and it will stay on for about 3 days.

Guasha (Muscle Scraping) is a practice in which a tool is used to scrape client’s skin in order to produce light petechiae. Practitioners believe that Guasha releases unhealthy bodily matter from blood stasis within sore, tired, stiff, or injured muscle areas to stimulate new blood flow to the areas promoting cell repair, generation, healing and recovery.

Suction from cupping draws fluid into the treated area. This suction force expands and breaks open tiny blood vessels under the skin. Your body treats the cupping area like an injury. It sends more blood to the area to stimulate the natural healing process. Some people theorize that cupping clears the pores and releases toxins.

SMALL GROUP TRAINING

Small group personal training allows specific needs to be meant with a personal trainer while working out with your friends and having accountability. This consists of, but is not limited to weight loss, functional training, strength training, form training, recovery training and endurance training. It gives the opportunity to be with friends in a custom structured session with our certified personal trainers.
