DHDC's Inception Reset Station Opening To the Public Spring 2025

In 1975, Dr. Herbert Benson, an American medical doctor, brought the importance of relaxation to the forefront as a helpful way to bring the body back to pre-stress levels.

Dr. Benson stated when we relax, the flow of blood increases around our body giving us more energy. Relaxation also helps us have a calmer and clearer mind that aids in positive thinking, concentration, memory, and decision making.

At Inception we acknowledge that people experience many types of physical and emotional challenges and address the stress response by:

  • Providing several researched-based modalities that work to bring both brain and body into balance, release tension and provide a relaxing and healing experience.
  • Inviting the brain and central nervous system to shift out of fight/flight or freeze.
  • Enabling the mind and body to thoroughly rest with the zero-gravity approach.
  • Helping the body to reduce inflammation, ease pain, and maintain healthy levels of cortisol.
