Biohack your body at the R+R Revive Room
What is biohacking and why should we care about it? Well, the Mighty Forbes tells us that biohacking is "a DIY biology aimed at improving performance, health, and wellbeing through strategic interventions." And while the fancy term might seem new to some, many are already biohacking through simple practices like meditation and sweat therapy.
At Restore + Revive, we’ve taken it up a notch with the Revive Room, offering state-of-the-art treatments that promote wellbeing at a cellular level and aim to reduce stress, improve sleep and enhance the recipient’s overall quality of life. Want to hear more? We thought so!
FEATURES OF THE REVIVE ROOM
Zero gravity relaxation lounge chairs whose patented design induces relaxation. Imagine the feeling of weightlessness in chairs so large they are also called tables.
Infrared PEMF Mats created to ground you in earth’s magnetic field for a full body reset. These mats utilize infrared’s deeply penetrating heat to intensify the healing and recovery benefits by sending low-level frequency throughout the body to recharge cells, expedite recovery, and calm the central nervous system. PEMF has been scientifically proven to improve chronic pain conditions, lessen inflammation, and improve immune response. When heated, the 20lbs of crystals within the mat produce negative ions, which are like antioxidants in the air. These ions neutralize free radicals and can improve your mood by directly impacting your serotonin levels. Pretty cool, huh?
LED Light Shield Masks shown to improve skin by speeding healing, boosting anti-aging properties, and killing bacteria. The LED masks are available in three colors, each with their own healing benefits.
Blue Light Therapy: Used for its antibacterial benefits and therefore used in acne treatment. This specific wavelength stimulates the production of oxygen radicals that kill P. Acnes bacteria (the acne-causing bacteria), without damaging the skin.
Amber Light Therapy: Used to flush waste from the skin, boost lymphatic flow and increase cellular growth, aiding in cell-turnover, or production of new skin cells.
Red Light Therapy: Used for its anti-aging benefits because of its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Also believed to reduce cytokines, which cause inflammation.
NuCalm masks guaranteed to have a calming effect on the brain, resulting in profound rest and relaxation. Using patented technology, NuCalm masks offer six patented channels to give you complete control over your brain’s operating frequency range. Feeling off? Sluggish? Slow? Need a reset? With their one-of-a-kind bio signal processing discs applied to your wrists and the NuCalm App provided through noise-canceling, low-EMF headphones, this technology gently tunes your brain’s frequency down, changing your corresponding mental state. NuCalm's oscillating frequency algorithm is smarter than your brain’s powerful pattern recognition and keeps you in this deeply restful state for as long as you choose, without distraction or interruption.
Organic weighted blankets shown to reduce stress and anxiety and calm the nervous system as well as aromatherapy are also provided with every session.
The best thing about the Revive Room is you can come every day! We recommend wearing comfortable clothes to promote relaxation and healing of the mind and body. Individuals with pacemakers, insulin pumps, or other electrical implants, and pregnancy should not use the PEMF mats but can partake in all other interventions. The Revive Room is offered in 40-minute increments and prices start at just $79.

Dabney's 2023 vacation travel tips
Are you stressing about your upcoming summer vacation? I know the feeling. You are so excited to spend quality time with your family and make precious memories, but your brain is also racing with a million thoughts.
"Do I need to buy a swimsuit for my daughter?"
"Will those hiking boots from last year still fit?"
"Do I have enough time to unpack when we get home?
Being prepared for a vacation doesn’t end with what’s inside your suitcase. What’s inside your body can take your trip from “oh, no” to “let’s go!” As a Family Nurse Practitioner and type 1 diabetic, I know taking care of yourself away from home can be challenging. I recommend having a plan in place to help keep you feeling your best. Here is a list to help you prepare before, during and after your next vacation.
Before
IV Therapy. I highly recommend an immune boost before you take to the skies. The Immune Boost Drip IV helps kick any colds that might be festering before they begin. It’s also a great way to calm allergies. IV Therapy is your answer to improve performance and recovery, rehydrate, or simply restore depleted vitamins.
During
Magnesium. The benefits of magnesium are plentiful, but you will especially appreciate the extra energy and better sleep it can deliver during your travels.
Hydration. Travel can take a toll on your hydration levels. Support your system with LMNT to replenish those vitamins and electrolytes. Restore + Revive sells several delicious flavors in a variety pack ($20) or as individual sticks ($2).
Soaps and washes. Just because it must pass TSA regulations doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your health. Fill up any silicone travel size containers with your favorite Oway hair products and Aleavia Body Wash to avoid using products with harmful ingredients (which are often stocked in hotel bathrooms!) Stock up on Branch Basics Travel Kit complete with mini-all-purpose, mini–foaming wash and mini concentrate for refilling. Great for washing hands, clothes and more on the go.
I also recommend incorporating ways to move your body, such as walks or other outdoor family activities (my family loves pickleball) as well as packing your own stainless steel water bottle. Another pro travel tip that will help you stick to clean eating is research restaurant menus before you go out to eat.
After
After your trip, the fatigue is guaranteed to set in. Don’t worry. Here are some pointers to help you battle the post-vacation woes.
Detox with Sauna. They say sweat cures all, and there’s a reason for that. Sweat is the body’s natural way to detoxify and stay healthy. Infrared Saunas offer this healing process in a therapeutic and enjoyable way that is not unbearably hot.
Cold Plunge. Benefits of cold immersion have been shown to include pain relief, improved mood and increased energy … to name a few. Just what the doctor ordered.
Foot Soak. Relax the mind and body while purifying through the soles of your feet. The detox foot soak cleansing method works by submerging feet in a specified combination of warm, high-quality water + Himalayan salts + negative ions to gently draw out the positively charged toxins in the body through the bottom of your feet. Detox foot soak therapy supports the purging of heavy metals and detoxification of the liver and kidneys, as well as many other health benefits.
Dermashape. Great way to detox, reset, and decrease any inflammation caused from travel. This treatment uses a holistic approach to stimulate and improve lymphatic drainage to drain excess fluid and toxins from the body.
In addition, sleep and hydration are two of the most important things we can do to maintain our health and wellbeing. Prioritize these two things when you get back and you will be back into your regular routine in no time.
Restore + Revive is open Monday – Wednesday: 9am-5pm; Thursday: 9am-7pm; and Friday & Saturday: 9am-2pm. To book any of these services, visit www.restoreandrevivefw.com/book-now or call 817-720-6220.
