Is it best to work out before or after my treatment?

It is best to complete any scheduled strenuous workouts prior to your session to achieve optimal results. If this is not possible with your athletic training schedule, be sure to discuss this detail prior to treatment so that the session can be modified so as not to impede your performance later.

 

How close can my treatment be to my competition day?

INTEGRATIVE HEALING:  This is best decided after a couple of treatments so that you know how your body responds to each modality.  If you are in a health crisis and  in close proximity to a competition day, then special circumstances may apply.  Discuss your situationbefore the treatment so that it can be modified to suit your needs.

BODYTALK ENERGY MEDICINE:  Since BodyTalk is a “Do no harm” technique, it can be initiated anytime, even moments before you compete.  If your body has no BodyTalk priority, the session will not occur.  There are actually even indications within the BodyTalk Protocol for the demands of athletic competition before, during and afterwards, all of which can be put in place from minutes to weeks in advance.

FAR INFRARED SAUNA:  The Far Infrared Sauna can be used up until the day before a competition and should be regularly used after athletic training or competition.

 

Is the Far Infrared Sauna beneficial for competitive athletes?

YES!  In fact they have been gaining popularity with athletes in the recovery from training and the rehabilitation of sport injury since they were used at the Olympics in Salt Lake City in 2002.  For more information please see the content and links on the Far Infrared Sauna page.

I’ve looked at the Glutathione promoting supplements and I think they may help my recovery and performance as a competitive athlete.  Do they contain any banned substances?

To meet the growing demands of athletes, coaches and all those concerned about banned substances in sports supplements, NSF International created the new NSF Certified for Sport® Program. This new NSF program is a focused solution designed to minimize the risk that a dietary supplement or sports nutrition product contains banned substances. You can view the certification for MaxGXL Sport.

 

Is there a difference in the effectiveness between MaxGXL and MaxGXL Sport?

No.  The contents of the capsules is identical. The differences between the two products are simply:

• MaxGXL Sport is a vegetarian capsule where the original MaxGXL is not.
• MaxGXL Sport has passed the stringent testing by the NSF Certified for Sport® Program for banned substances.
• MaxGXL Sport is packaged in a bottle where the original MaxGXL is packaged in convient 3-capsule single serving cello packs.
