What would a few hours of solitude look like for you? At dtXfy you get to experience rejuvenation of the mind, body, and soul. Sounds good? Let’s talk about the services from infrared sauna, red light therapy and the 6D massage therapy. All these services combined and separated can help with sleep, weight loss management, cell renewal, and so much more.
Self-Care Services at dtXfy
We all know by now that self-care comes in many forms. The ability to say yes to you is what self-care is all about. So many of us deprive ourselves of the things that we need. In the long run it takes from our full cup. I was able to try two new services that I hadn’t had before. One was the 6D massage pod and the Red-Light Therapy. In addition, I had the Infrared Sauna before but at dtXfy it was a completely different type of service.
How do you enjoy quiet time?
The first time I did the Infrared Sauna and sat in the quietness of allowing my body to be still it was a lot harder than I thought. For whatever reason, as much as we crave and need alone time, timing is an issue to begin with. However, I am learning to be okay and intentional with adding calm into my world. For instance, something as small as reading a book. My newest passions are listening to the Audible while I read the book in my hand. Pretty much let my eyes glide over the words while the author reads it to me. I am old school with having to feel the book in my fingers.
6D Massage Pod
This massage pod is the best thing I have ever experienced. I personally admonish you to try it. You sit inside of the pod, and it flexes every part of your body. You get to be in control of the intensity and more. I selected it to be deep but relaxing. It lays you on your back, folds you, and massages you even in your toes. I was in the pod for 30 minutes and since it was my first experience of my time there it put me to sleep.
Having your body in this much of rest made me realize so many pressure points that were neglected. In 2001 I was in a car accident involving a tractor trailer. My left shoulder will forever be in pain from time to time since it was dislocated to the point where I had to have pins placed in them. It is something I must be aware of when I get any form of massage. However, I can report that this massage did my shoulder so much good. It was exactly what I needed.
Infrared Sauna
This experience was a 10/10. Unlike the other experience I had they had a television in the room. The other only allowed for you to play music, Audible, or a podcast. All though it would appear that television would be counterproductive to me time it wasn’t. I do not watch a lot of television in my house. Its so bad that I don’t want tv that when the remote is missing I am never asked where it is. I either at an event, cleaning, relaxing aka I am sleep on the couch, or reading. I haven’t used any of my subscriptions in so long I couldn’t tell you the passwords.
As soon as you step into the room you get to get to undress or dress as much as you like. For the sake of decency in my content making I wore a bathing suit. But when I wasn’t recording, I enjoyed it with my natural birthday suit. The reason is the more you bare, the more you take in the experience. This sauna experience allows you to one be in yourself. The television was on and I saw parts of it but I paid attention to the lights, my breathing, and more. You do not have to have the television on. They have Bluetooth you could bring your journal like I did and read a book or just be in total quietness. The staff allows you time to yourself but are a button away if you need it. The experience will be different for every person who goes.
If you want to have more than one person in the sauna you can up to 3 in some rooms. Make sure you select that when scheduling. One of the best benefits outside of helping with burning calories, detoxifying your body is that it adds natural antidepressants into your body. If you have been following my journey you are aware that I have episodic depression and seasonal depression. I immediately felt Zen and back to me after the day.
Red Light Therapy at dtXfy
I enjoyed this 10-minute session. Be sure to put on the glasses to protect your eyes. Remember that the more you bare the deeper of the experience. The benefits of cellular regeneration and muscle recovery is the one that I know I needed must. If you work out, have ongoing pain in your body or dealing with some underlying health issue such a stroke or injury the benefits have been known to help enhance healing for you. When I had the blood clot in my braid when I was pregnant with my youngest child, my doctor who is more of homeopathic suggested the red-light therapy years ago.
It is 10 minutes of intense light and heat, but the heat isn’t unbearable at all.
Holiday Bookings
All in all, after trying all 3 of the services at dtXfy I would 100% recommend it. I would suggest that if you want to try especially at the Wayne location you can try for as little as $25 (subject to change). Also, if you are looking to gift an experience add them to your list. You can buy some blocks of time for your loved on. I added it to my list so I can get 4 sauna sessions for $179. Thank you to dtXfy and Philly PR Girl for having me.
