RECOVERY TOOLS
THERAGUN
Whether you’re treating yourself or treating someone else, TheraGun’s effect on a body in pain is profound. With 33 individual vertebrae and 640 muscles in the human body, we are more alike than we think, and we all suffer from the same nagging aches and pains that just keep cramping our style.
HOT & COLD WATER CONTRAST THERAPY
Gone are the days athletes plunge in an ice tub for recovery. Contrast therapy creates vasodilation (opening) and vasoconstriction (closing) of vessels in the body. Combine the tubs as a sequence and create circulation to increase blood flow for powerful recovery.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork geared towards athletes and those who workout hard and often. Using various techniques, a massage therapist is able to achieve a specific goal when working on the athlete. Massage is often used to help prevent injury, prepare the body for athletic activities, maintain optimal condition, and/or help athletes recover. This style specifically targets the release of tight muscles and will help improve flexibility, reduce pain and increase the range of motion in restricted areas.

DRY NEEDLING
Dry needling is an invasive procedure in which a solid filament needle is inserted into the skin and muscle, directly at a myofascial trigger point. A myofascial trigger point consists of multiple contraction knots which are related to the production and maintenance of the pain cycle and general muscle function.

INFRARED SAUNA
Finish your recovery session at GTXSR with the infrared sauna. This sauna is one of our most valuable players as it stimulates cell metabolism via infrared light. Evidence indicates cells absorb photons from light and transform to adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the form of energy that cells utilize. While you sit, your cells are repairing and regenerating. The benefits do not stop at pain control and tissue repair. Other uses include weight loss, detox, relaxation, and improved circulation.
CUPPING
Cupping is a therapeutic suction technique used across many practices to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, and relaxation and well-being. For our athletes, this modality is helpful for tendinitis, tight muscles, tight fascia, and increasing blood flow to an area. We manipulate the cups in a variety of ways such as keeping the cup still and moving the body part, moving the cup while the body part is still, or keeping the cup still while the athlete moves their own body part.
SPORTS MASSAGE
Sports massage is a form of bodywork geared toward participants in athletics. It is used to help prevent injuries, to prepare the body for athletic activity and maintain it in optimal condition, and to help athletes recover from workouts and injuries. Sports massage has three basic forms: pre-event massage, post-event massage, and maintenance massage.
