When you put your all into your favorite sport, you’re also putting a ton of strain on your body. Not only are your muscles impacted by heavy exertion, but your skin, joints, and other organs tend to feel the effects just as much. At Ohm, our spa treatments aren’t only designed for relaxation – we have a collection of services that target bodily recovery and revitalization so you can perform, feel, and look your best.
Let’s review the best wellness services Ohm has to offer to athletes in the Wolfeboro, NH area!
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
For athletes, adequate oxygen intake is everything for healing and muscle recovery. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy uses a pressurized chamber to help deliver oxygen throughout the body. In this chamber, the air pressure is higher than normal air pressure, which helps oxygen dissolve more efficiently in your blood while enhancing oxygen delivery throughout your bodily tissues.
Since athletes tend to endure more than their fair share of inflammation and muscle strain, this treatment can be effective and useful both during the off-season to promote recovery and while actively training and playing. For older athletes, HBOT can be especially beneficial, as it has anti-aging benefits, such as increasing collagen production, a process that tends to slow down as you get older.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Core strength is necessary for most sports and athletic endeavors. A strong pelvic floor helps maintain a strong core and can even help your overall coordination, improving the stability of your spine and therefore lowering your chance of experiencing injury.
Many people who choose pelvic floor therapy will attend sessions about once a week for anywhere between one to three months. However, the frequency of your sessions will depend on your individual needs. At Ohm, we’ll work together to decide what schedule works best for you!
Plason Facial Treatments
As an athlete, you’re likely focused on relieving pain and finding treatments that target muscle and tissue healing. However, keeping your skin healthy is essential to your overall wellness! When you work out, train, and play a sport, constant sweating and wearing tight, compressive clothing can contribute to acne flare-ups, worsen inflammation, and dry out your skin.
Plason facial treatments are a powerful option for addressing stubborn acne, hyperpigmentation, and even wrinkles, all while infusing the skin with the hydration it needs to remain supple. One of the best parts about Plason treatments is that they are one of the most long-lasting facial treatments available. In just a couple of sessions, you’ll receive noticeable results, and with proper upkeep and care, you can maintain these results no matter how hard you work and play.
Float Room Sessions
Even though you love your sport, it can truly take a toll on your mind and body. You deserve an opportunity to unwind from the stress of athletic success and high performance with amenities that aim to help you become more centered and mindful.
A float room uses body-temperature water and a ton of Epsom salt to relieve tension in the body, allowing you to float weightlessly in a cozy room with soft lighting and no noise, all without the confines and pressure of gravity. Any pressure on your joints and muscles is relieved by floating – with regular float sessions, you’ll be able to recover from tough training sessions much more easily and expand your performance ability.
For athletes, this is the perfect time to clear your mind and meditate. This de-stressing treatment can help lower your cortisol levels, which can, in turn, help promote a more functional immune system.
PRX Treatments
PRX treatments are a multi-use service that focuses on skin renewal. This topical treatment addresses the outer skin layers first before penetrating the dermis, working to tighten and smooth the skin for a more toned, youthful appearance. Routine, tough exercise can exacerbate the skin, stretching and stressing it with each session. Since excessive UV exposure can inhibit proper collagen production, athletes who play outdoor sports like soccer and football may find PRX treatments to be just what they need to restore their skin from sun-related acne, inflammation, and deterioration.
