You made it. The set high is still present, but as you fly home you recognize the intensity of the last few months and its toll on your body. You need to recover. Another project is hitting in 3 months and you need to be at 100% again. All you want to do is curl up and hide away in your home cave…
What if I told you that you can do both, at once – hibernate and recover?
Yep. I’ve got you. Let’s break this down. Keep it simple. Keep it at home. And rebirth your body for resilience.
Top 3 Therapies for Quick Recovery
My specialty is stacking and using your time efficiently. We can activate healing, multiple layers at once, and we will do it. Let’s look at my top 3 recommendations.
#1 Hyperbaric Chamber
This is the most powerful reset available to you. I refer to it as the healing nap. You lay or sit in a well-spaced chamber and rest or sleep while breathing pure oxygen under increased air pressure. It feels very similar to flying in a plane cabin. If you tend towards claustrophobia like me, we will set you up with a larger chamber, so you feel at peace. The options on the market are incredible right now, so we can find you the perfect match. I am a connoisseur of chambers.
The impact of spending time in a hyperbaric chamber is systemic – meaning it affects your entire body in one fell swoop – and initiates a massive reset and recovery of your stress-handling organs. Your soft tissue organs, like your brain (think hypothalamus and pituitary), adrenals, and thyroid gland, absorb the potent oxygen you’re breathing at a heightened rate due to the cabin pressure. This pure oxygen is like heavy luscious rain for your organ’s dehydrated crispy soil, it soaks, nourishes and revitalizes instantly at the cellular level – a deeply powerful experience for the body.
Chambers can be rented and delivered to your home between shoots or if you love it as much as I think you will, you can invest in your own chamber to use at home whenever you want. I love doing home visits or virtual tours to match clients with their best fit.
It’s vitally important to move through this therapy with an understanding of your body’s starting state. If you have chronic symptoms or labels like Lyme, MCAS or any autoimmune condition, please work with me to create a custom schedule to prevent healing reactions. If you’re simply fatigued and wanting to revitalize yourself, follow my general recommendation below to start!

Ideally space these out with 1-2 days in between for your body to utilize the cellular jumpstart it received during the session.
1st week: 60 min 3x a week
2nd week: 90 min 3x a week
3rd week: 90-120 min 2x a week
4th/5th week: 120 min 3x a week
6-8th week: 120 min 4x a week
9-12th week: 90 min 3x a week
#2 PEMF, Light & Infrared Heat Stack
Revive your skin, reset your energy, and deepen your natural sleep recovery in one quick pre-bed session. This stack is like getting a hug from the most-motherly human in your life, leaving you soul settled, your body grounded, and your mind refreshed. You will emerge reborn!
I recommend enjoying this stack 2-3 hours after eating dinner and 1 hour before bed. Shower and climb under your fresh sheets right after this therapy for the most powerful impact. Your body will use this gift of support throughout your overnight rest and after a few weeks you will wake up each morning feeling like a new human. Just writing about this makes me want to do it right now! It’s hard to top this feeling…
There are a couple of ways to create this combo of tools. You can have multiple tools or use a system that includes all of them in one – my preference. I have my favorites that are very easy to keep in your home and even have an aesthetic appeal if you find you keep leaving it out for convenience.
Bonus Note: If you were exposed to any kind of toxin while shooting, mold, for instance, then you will want to add in the correct binders to enhance clearance. See me for this customization.
This Marriage of Modalities Can Provide:
Nervous system regulation with the power of PEMF frequencies
Activation of your cells’ engines to promote clearance and regeneration
Lymphatic movement to detoxify and enhance immune system recovery
Common Results:
Glowing skin
Toxin clearance
Bounding energy
Restorative sleep
Toned and sculpted body
Sharper mind
Immune resilience
Fast recovery

#3 Focused Nutrient Rebuild
We can’t skip the necessary step of re-nourishing your vessel post-shoot! Often, the extreme places you go to embody your role and express the story drain you deeply. Your brain and nervous system don’t know the difference between reality and your imagination. In other words, your body thinks it just went through the highs and lows of the world you and the crew created. So… your recovery should match the level of intensity and depth of this. At times, I would even say this is PTSD-level work.
Obviously, every shoot varies, but often clients return from a shoot and their labs show massive deficiencies simply because they lived in full survival mode for the entire 4-6 months. The late nights and early mornings, subpar food, extreme temperatures, heavy makeup turnover and olympic-level brain requirements all take a toll on the body. If you do not enter the shoot with robust nutrient stores, you will be dragging your war-torn body home.
My approach is not just about recovery, it’s also about preparation and prevention. Just as you prepare for a role mentally and emotionally, so you can prepare for it physically. Capacity is everything when it comes to resilience in this industry. As you recover from your last shoot, you are also rebuilding to enter your next, ready for game time.
The last thing you want is to get an opportunity you’ve dreamt about and not be able to give it your all because you’re depleted and not functioning at full tilt. Please don’t find yourself here.
When we’re considering nutrient levels, we want to keep it succinct and potent, so that you’re not taking a hoard of random filler supplements or navigating a complicated diet regimen. We do this by incorporating a custom powerful morning cupper and targeted nutrient protocol, based on lab testing and your innate areas of vulnerability within the body. I use advanced personalized labs and astrological mapping to uncover your nuanced needs. The supplements are therapeutic and in forms that hit the body almost instantly, meaning we’re able to shift you quickly and profoundly. I am a supplement savant. I love this work.
