Whether you’re a dedicated runner, a weekend warrior, or simply feeling the effects of an active lifestyle, recovery is the missing piece in many people’s wellness routines. At The Space in Fort Saskatchewan, we understand that pushing your body, whether through sports, fitness, or everyday overuse, requires just as much care and attention in recovery as it does in performance. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a new class called Recover & Recharge, which combines stretching, yoga, muscle release techniques, and red light therapy for a full-spectrum recovery experience.

Let’s break down why this combination is so powerful and why it might be exactly what your body needs.

Why Recovery Matters

Recovery isn’t just for elite athletes. It’s for runners, cyclists, yogis, weightlifters, hikers, construction workers, busy parents, and everyone in between. Over time, even everyday activity can create muscle tension, joint stiffness, and fatigue. Without proper recovery, this can lead to:

  • Decreased performance
  • Increased risk of injury
  • Chronic pain or discomfort
  • Mental burnout

Incorporating a structured routine that includes stretching, yoga, and red light therapy can help your body bounce back faster, improve mobility, and reduce the likelihood of injury.

Stretching & Yoga: The Foundation of Physical Recovery

Stretching and yoga plays a key role in maintaining flexibility, improving circulation, and reducing muscle soreness. Whether you’re cooling down after a long run or easing tightness from hours at a desk, stretching helps realign muscle fibers and release built-up tension.

In the Recover & Recharge class at The Space, you’ll be guided through intentional, deep stretches to lengthen tight muscles, improve joint range of motion, and support your body’s natural healing process.

Yoga for recovery focuses on restorative and gentle movement that calms the nervous system while promoting flexibility and blood flow.  The class is accessible for all levels, no previous experience needed, and designed to help you tune into your body’s needs in a supportive and peaceful environment.

Red Light Therapy

Red Light Therapy: Healing from the Inside Out

Red light therapy is gaining recognition in the wellness world, and for good reason. This non-invasive treatment uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to:

  • Decrease inflammation
  • Accelerate tissue repair and regeneration
  • Enhance circulation
  • Reduce joint and muscle pain
  • Boost cellular energy production

When used after a workout, sports event, or high-intensity activity, red light therapy promotes faster healing and reduces recovery time. At The Space, red light therapy is the perfect addition to your recovery toolkit, integrated directly into our the Recover & Recharge class to amplify your body’s natural ability to heal.

A Full-Spectrum Recovery Experience at The Space

Our new Recover & Recharge class brings together the healing power of yoga, stretching, muscle release, and red light therapy in one comprehensive session. Designed for athletes, runners, fitness lovers, and anyone looking to feel better in their body, this class is:

  • Gentle and restorative
  • Instructor-led and supportive
  • Suitable for all fitness levels
  • Backed by science and experience

You’ll leave each class feeling lighter, more mobile, and deeply refreshed.
