For a Body Roll session, you must be in proper rolling attire. You’ll need: full length yoga pants, long sleeves & socks (all free of metal, buttons, and zippers).

Prior to rolling, jewelry must be removed and all long hair must be tied back.

post treatment

Keeping your body hydrated before, during, and after class is key. Make sure that you arrive to each class with water or you can purchase one in our studio.

Drinking throughout your body roll will help your body eliminate residues more easily, regulate body temperature and transport nutrients to give you energy so your body can perform at its highest level. 

disclaimers

The speed on Body Roll machines can be increased/decreased based off of your bodies needs. During rolling, it is common to experience an itching sensation from the blood vessels expanding due to the infrared light.

Additionally, light bruising, soreness or redness is common after rolling, especially after your first few sessions. To reduce intensity, put less body pressure onto machine while rolling.
