Wellness Services for Joint Pain

For widespread or whole-body joint discomfort, cryotherapy is a popular wellness option. This method utilizes low temperatures that may help calm overactive nerves, support a healthy inflammation response, and relax tight muscles which can contribute to pain in the joints. Clients enter a cryotherapy chamber for a few minutes each session.

For those experiencing joint point in a certain area, localized cryotherapy is another service Recovery Lab offers, which is applied directly to the affected region only. Localized cryotherapy is a little longer than cryotherapy but still generally lasts under 30 minutes a session.

HBOT is a popular wellness service for those experiencing ongoing joint discomfort. Clients receiving this service enter a pressurized chamber filled with pure oxygen. The goal of this service is to increase the amount of oxygen the client intakes, which plays a critical role in the body’s natural recovery processes.

Breathing in the high levels of oxygen in a HBOT chamber may help calm nerve irritation, support blood circulation, support the body’s natural repair processes around the joints, and ease feelings of joint swelling and discomfort.

Red light therapy uses a certain frequency of red light and near-infrared light as a form of wellness support. During a session, this light gets absorbed through the skin, which can have a direct impact on the body’s various tissues like muscles and joints.

For those experiencing frequent or ongoing joint pain, red light therapy may help boost blood flow, support cellular repair, soothe inflammation, ease stiffness, and calm overstimulated nerve receptors.

Cupping, which involves suctioning special cups onto the skin to encourage circulation, has been practiced for thousands of years. This option may be a helpful part of a routine for both occasional and long-term joint discomfort.

Cupping therapy may help ease joint discomfort thanks to its potential to increase circulation, reduce muscle tension near joints, and ease swelling, which in turn may support joint motion and comfort.

Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization or simply known as blading involves a Recovery Specialist scraping a special tool against soft tissue to help ease muscle or joint stiffness and discomfort. Blading may help ease joint discomfort by breaking up surrounding muscle tension, increasing blood flow to the area, and supporting a healthy inflammation response.

Blading may be a good fit for those dealing with joint pain in their wrists, knees, elbows, or shoulders. It may support comfort for many kinds of joint tension, such as repetitive strain from frequent athletic activities; if you have had a recent surgery or an osteoarthritis diagnosis, check with your healthcare provider first.
