Benefits of AIR
Oxygen Therapy
In our normal breath we inhale only ~ 21% oxygen and a ton of other not as helpful gases. When dispensed through the AIR oxygen system the percent of oxygen delivered to the lungs is close to 95%. The lungs transfer the oxygen to your blood and your blood carries the oxygen to every cell in ones body causing many invigorating effects;
First, the increase oxygenation helps in reducing stress, increasing energy and alertness, lessening the effects of hangovers, headaches, and sinus problems, and generally relaxing the body. On a longer term basis, oxygen flushes impurities and toxins (Free Radicals) out of the blood which are recognized as a major factor in causing many forms of cancer. If you are young and healthy, your body does this naturally. As you age, and your normal blood oxygen level declines; you are more susceptible to the causes of cancer. Oxygen does not cure cancer, but it can prevent some forms of cancer from starting and your recovery from treatment can be greatly enhanced.
Oxygen also has an anti-inflammatory benefit which accelerates ones healing abilities. When one pumps iron, you are advised to wait a day before working out again. With oxygen, the muscles heal faster and your can work out more regularly. Many believe that oxygen will help people recovering from chemotherapy and surgery and speed their recovery.
Weight loss is another unheralded benefit of Oxygen Therapy. As we age, our metabolism slows down and we tend to gain weight. Concurrently with this aging process, our blood oxygen level declines. By raising the oxygen levels in the blood, the body burns calories more efficiently and we can reverse some of the weight gaining process that accompanies aging. If one watches his diet they can experience weight loss on a slow natural level when combined with a 10 minute weekly sessions of oxygen.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy, which literally means “cold therapy,” is a technique where the body is exposed to extremely cold temperatures for several minutes.
Cryotherapy can be delivered to just one area, or you can opt for whole-body cryotherapy. Localized cryotherapy can be administered in a number of ways, including through ice packs, ice massage, coolant sprays, ice baths, and even through probes administered into tissue.
During whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) the individual will stand in an enclosed chamber or a small enclosure that surrounds their body but has an opening for their head at the top. The enclosure will drop to between negative 100–200°F. They’ll stay in the ultra-low temperature air for between one and three minutes.
During this process, toxins are flushed from peripheral tissues and blood is enriched with oxygen, enzymes, and nutrients. The body activates all of its natural healing abilities and releases endorphins for further benefit. As the body warms up again, the enriched blood flows back through the body through a process called vasodilation. As a result, whole body cryotherapy is very effective for athletic recovery and muscle repair, reduction of chronic pain and inflammation, and an overall enhancement of health and wellness.
You can get benefits from just one session of cryotherapy, but it’s most effective when used regularly. Cryotherapy can also be an effective way to shed pounds fast!

Athletes can practice a better range of motion by reducing body weight, the legs will naturally extend farther. Practicing better alignment and technique without fear of injury.
Vascular Compression Therapy
Sequential Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (SIPC) therapy is the process of applying external pressure to the limbs to promote the circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid to and from the extremities of the body this improves blood circulation, which nourishes cells and improves waste elimination. Supports and enhances the immune system. SIPC can be used in the prevention and treatment of various vascular issues such as: lymphoedema, diabetic complications, chronic venous insufficiency, venous ulceration, lipoedema and DVT. And that, Considering the aging population of the United State, SIPC is a safe, effective use for elderly patients.

AIR Infrared Sauna
Infrared saunas are an effective tool for natural healing and prevention. Infrared light has the ability to penetrate human tissue which in turn produces a host of anti-aging health benefits making infrared saunas one of the “hottest” home therapies for overall healthier living. If you want to get yourself back into balance, the benefits of an infrared sauna may be just what you need to achieve your wellness goals.
6 Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy:
- Detoxification
Sweating is one of the body’s most natural ways to eliminate toxins, making it a crucial part of detoxification. When compared to traditional Swedish saunas, infrared saunas allow you to eliminate about seven times more toxins.
- Relaxation
Infrared sauna therapy promotes relaxation by helping to balance your body’s level of cortisol, your body’s primary stress hormone. The heat generated by the sauna will also help to relax muscles and relieve tension throughout the body, allowing you to relax and de-stress.
- Pain Relief
If you suffer from muscle aches or joint pain, infrared saunas can relieve this form of inflammation by increasing circulation and relaxing your muscles.
- Weight Loss
The heat generated by an infrared sauna will cause your core temperature to increase, which can also lead to an increased heart rate — the same increase in heart rate that you experience when exercising. When your body has to work harder to lower your core temperature or keep up with an increased heart rate, your body will burn more calories, resulting in weight loss. An article, titled Effect of Sweating, in the Journal of the American Medical Association concluded that a 30-minute infrared sauna session could burn roughly 600 calories.
- Improved Circulation
As the heat from infrared saunas increases your core body temperature, your circulation will increase along with it. Consistent infrared sauna sessions, especially in the middle-infrared level, can stimulate blood flow, improve muscle recovery, and decrease pain and inflammation after intense exercise.
- Skin Purification
Infrared sauna technology can help purify your skin by eliminating toxins from your pores and increasing circulation, resulting in clearer, softer, and healthier-looking skin.
