As the founder of Rejuvenation Stations at the Branch and a licensed professional counselor, I truly believe in self-love, self-care, and self-awareness as being key ingredients to a more productive, high-quality lifestyle. Self-care is a vital practice that promotes overall well-being and encompasses nurturing your mind, body, and soul. It is a lifelong experience and an ongoing commitment to yourself that allows for a fulfilling life. In a fast-paced world filled with responsibilities and demands, self-care acts as an essential tool to maintain balance and rejuvenation.

Self-care is crucial for your mind. In the midst of daily stressors and challenges, it provides you an opportunity to unwind and recharge. Engaging in activities that bring you joy, such as practicing mindfulness or pursuing creative outlets, allows the mind to relax. Taking regular breaks and engaging in activities that promote mental well-being, such as meditation, reading, or journaling, can reduce anxiety and enhance clarity of thought. By prioritizing self-care for the mind, you can improve your cognitive abilities, enhance focus, and promote emotional stability.

Self-care is also essential for physical health. Engaging in regular movement and exercise, maintaining a balanced diet, and getting adequate sleep are all important components of self-care for the full-body approach. Exercise not only strengthens your body, but also releases mood boosting endorphins and reduces stress and brain fatigue. A nutritious diet fuels the body with essential nutrients, contributing to your overall well-being. Plenty of sleep is equally important as it allows your body and mind to rest and repair. By prioritizing self-care for the body, your energy levels and physical strength will enhance while the risk of health concerns can decline.

Lastly, self-care nurtures our soul. This involves connecting with our values, beliefs, and practices. Engaging in activities that align with our passions and values, such as spending time in nature, practicing gratitude, or engaging in meaningful friendships or relationships, promotes a sense of purpose and fulfillment into daily life. Taking time to self-reflect allows us to explore our inner selves, gain clarity about our goals, and develop a deeper understanding of our purpose in life.By nurturing the soul through self-care, you can experience a profound sense of contentment, inner peace, personal growth, and take care of yourself through total body wellness.

Self-care requires consistency and adaptability. Just as our needs and circumstances change over time, self-care practices need to evolve as well. Regularly reassessing ourself-care routines and adjusting them to suit changing needs ensures that our well-being remains a priority. It is an ongoing process of self love, self-compassion, and self-improvement.All in all, self-care is one of the best ways to prioritize our minds, body, and soul. By dedicating time and attention to ourselves, we can create a space for growth and rejuvenation.

At Rejuvenation Stations at the Branch, we provide an inviting environment for anyone looking to enhance their own self-care journey with three devices to improve self-care:

1. Far Infrared Sauna

Infrared saunas create an environment that allows radiant heat energy to be absorbed into the human body. Benefits include: better sleep, relaxation, detoxification, weight loss, muscle and joint pain relief, clear and tighter skin, improved circulation, and chronic fatigue syndrome relief.

2. BEMER (Bio Electromagnetic Energy Regulation)

Take an 8-minute rest on the electromagnetic pulsed B-Body Pad designed to help treat: stress, migraine headaches, arthritis pain, back pain, sports injuries, sprains, pain from fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis fatigue, and insomnia.

3. Inverted Massage Chair

The Inverted Massage chair can increase the production of serotonin, the happy hormone, while reducing cortisol, the stress hormone. Additionally, it can lead to reduced neck, shoulder, and back pain, while improving blood flow and metabolism, boosting the immune system, treating headaches, increasing bone density, and relaxing the muscles.

The Rejuvenation Stations experience provides multiple physical, mental, and emotional health benefits in just an hour. Stress is the enemy and it weakens the immune system one day at a time. Mindfully and consistently taking time to unplug from our daily stress and reboot from the inside out should be the standard. Rejuvenation Stations at the Branch helps you achieve this personal goal over and over again.

Rejuvenation Stations at the Branch

Rejuvenation Stations is designed to allow you to fully de-stress, while simultaneously gaining health and immunity benefits, through the use of an infrared sauna, BEMER, and a full-body vibration and compression massage chair. The experience is designed for you to manage things independently for 60 minutes — 20 minutes in our infrared sauna, 8 minutes on our BEMER, and 20 minutes in our inverted massage chair.Each station is established in a specific order to work on the inside of your body (detoxing cells, micro-circulating blood flow, and vibrating/com-pressing muscles) while tapping into your mind and emotional state. The process is relaxing from head to toe. Benefits from completing the stations are geared to last for days after each experience, leaving you feeling rejuvenated and gratified with the time you set aside for self-care.
