All the research shows us that fitness occurs during recovery, so we've got lots of options to help athletes make the most of their training by giving their muscles and cardiovascular systems the best chance to adapt and improve. Read on for all that the Playtri Performance Center "Recovery Zone" has to offer - and don't forget to check out our wide range of athletic compression products the next time you're visiting the Playtri Pro Shop!
Cryosauna - Millenium Ice
One of the best recovery tools we've found yet, the Cryosauna is available during regular business hours and before and after group and one-on-one classes. We always recommend scheduling in advance to ensure your appointment time - in general, appointments take 15-20 minutes. To schedule, give us a call at (214) 370-9010.
The Cryosauna consists of an open chamber that lowers the athletes exterior skin temperature from 90.5 to 30-32 degrees Fahrenheit, before rising to approximately 95 degrees, then returning to normal. This results in increased blood flow to both the muscles and internal organs, sending extra oxygen and nutrients to both, and promoting quicker recovery time.
Alter G Treadmill
The most advanced treadmill for enhanced sports performance and physical therapy can now be found at the Playtri Performance Center. The Alter G Treadmill uses a pressure controlled chamber to "unweight" an athlete and allow them to enhance their performance while minimizing the impact on their body. Volume and intensity can be increased without increasing the risk of stress related injuries. Even runners coming back from injury can retain more of their fitness during their rehabilitation. Multiple cameras offer athletes and coaches the ability to analyze form and running mechanics in real-time. Come in and talk to one of our expert coaches about how the Alter G can make you better today.
