💆‍♀️ What We’re Really Talking About:

When we say “recovery,” we’re not talking about spa days and luxury treatments. We’re talking about tools and practices that preserve your energy, reduce inflammation, and help your body heal — things like:

    🔴 Red light therapy🔥 Infrared saunas❄️ Cold plunges💨 Cryotherapy🦵 Leg compressions

🧠 Why Recovery Isn’t Just for Athletes

Maybe you’ve thought:

“Who has time for that?”
 “That’s for professional athletes.”
 “It sounds like pampering.”

But recovery is actually preventative health. It supports longevity, hormone balance, and stress resilience. It’s how we protect our health, not just treat it.

Even better? You don’t need a huge budget to start.
 💡 Did you know Planet Fitness offers red light therapy for their Black Card members?
There are affordable, accessible options to bring recovery into your weekly routine.

🌿 The Mindset Shift: From Pampering to Preservation

When we change the narrative around recovery, it becomes part of our wellness strategy, not a guilty pleasure.

    It’s not about indulgence — it’s about intention.It’s not about perfection — it’s about preservation.
