NuCalm Stress Management System: Master Your Recovery
The Second Active Recovery Tool Offered At Chain Effect is the Only Patented System of Its Kind!
The science behind NuCalm is robust. NuCalm is the only system patented and proven to shift users into parasympathetic system dominance. With this shift, it unlocks your body’s naturally restorative processes and shifts your brain’s wave patterns from stress-oriented Beta waves to Zen-like Alpha brain waves.
You Have Access to So Many NuCalm Programs at Chain Effect!
DeepestSleep+:
Use DeepestSleep+ if you have trouble staying asleep. This NuCalm program is especially good for people who tend to wake up in the middle of the night. Although you probably won’t be sleeping over at our 24/7 fitness center, you are encouraged to try it.
Rescue:
Rescue shifts users into PS dominance (deep theta range), a state where your body is deeply relaxed and in a restorative state. Chain Effect’s typical recommendation is 40-60 minutes, although the program can range from anywhere between 20-120 minutes.
PowerNap:
PowerNap is a quick, 20-minute experience to help boost energy for when you are short on time. Who doesn’t have 20 minutes to spare to make themselves feel more productive?
FlowState:
Use FlowState to reduce stress and improve focus and productivity. The experts at chain effect recommend 10-40 minutes, which is great for getting over mid-day lulls.
Through these programs of NuCalm offered at Chain Effect, your brain wave frequency will be lowered to a state associated with active recovery. The NuCalm programs are designed to hold you there, like a car idling.
What are you waiting for?
Do Both at Chain Effect & Find Complete Active Recovery
To get the complete experience, the Physical Therapists and expert personal trainers at Chain Effect in Raleigh encourage clients to combine postural relaxation through our state-of-the-art zero-gravity recliners with NuCalm program technology, offering the ultimate relaxation experience unlike any other.
Active Recovery is More Than Just Relaxation
Not all stress is bad… Stress is essential for personal and physical growth, but controlling your response to stress is what separates peak performers from everyone else. With NuCalm, you’re developing that control. Whether you’re:
- An elite athlete trying to get in the “zone” or “flow”
- An executive or business partner under crushing deadlines
- A parent feeling overwhelmed by a lack of time
- A student feeling spread too thin
Chain Effect’s NuCalm can change everything, helping you deal with stress in an active way. Book NuCalm at Chain Effect.
Is NuCalm Right for You?
We believe NuCalm is right for everyone, but if you aren’t sure, you can ask yourself:
- Have you ever brought stress and emotional baggage from work into your home, redirecting it negatively at loved ones? (Honestley, who hasnt! We’re human afterall…)
- Do you feel so overwhelmed with projects or tasks that you can’t even begin breaking them down into actionable steps? (This paralization is more prominent than you might think…)
These are signs of an over-stimulated, over-stressed mind existing in sympathetic “fight-or-flight” dominance, making it nearly impossible to calm down because your entire body is responding to the situation.
Mindfulness and Active Recovery training isn’t just about managing your current situation—it’s about arming you with tools for unforeseen challenges ahead.
