Chronic Inflammation

Inflammation is how your body repairs itself after experiencing injury or infection. This response means well, with a goal to isolate the injury, stimulate tissue repair, and boost the immune system to protect the body.

When inflammation goes haywire, it can lead to opposite results. Excess inflammation or inflammation lasting longer than necessary can damage healthy cells, increase your risk of blood clots, and even boost your chances of developing a chronic illness. Hence, it’s important to keep inflammation in check, even if you’re generally healthy.

Inflammation can have multiple triggers. In the average person, inflammation most commonly happens due to physical trauma or an infection. In healthy individuals, this response tends to be short term, just until the threat, i.e., the injury or infection, has cleared.

Other potential causes of inflammation can include excess stress, intense workouts, sleep deprivation, autoimmune or metabolic disorders, or exposure to certain chemicals. Aging may also play a role in inflammation.

Whether you want to start off with just one service for now or go gung ho with multiple options from the start, we’ll be happy to clear out a spot on our schedule for you.

At Recovery Lab, we offer several services to help calm inflammation. Some of our top inflammation-taming wellness services include cryotherapy, cupping, and red light therapy. While these won’t “cure” inflammation, what they can do is help temporarily balance your inflammatory response to provide a relief of symptoms.

We recommend stacking services or setting up multi-weekly visits if you want to get the most out of our services. Opting for more than one service can also help you target more than one goal, such as reduced inflammation and quicker healing.
