Reset Lounge
A calming space designed to help reset your nervous system using breathwork, biofeedback, and restorative therapeutic technologies—perfect for a quick refresh or as part of a more comprehensive mental health approach.
The Reset Lounge
The Reset Lounge is a dedicated space designed to help your mind and body return to a state of balance. In today’s world, the nervous system is constantly pulled into stress mode — leaving many people feeling overstimulated, anxious, tense, fatigued, or emotionally drained. This room was created as a therapeutic pause: a place where your system can exhale, regroup, and reset.
Everyone experiences stress and anxiety differently, and no single approach works the same for all. The Reset Lounge brings together a range of non-invasive, evidence-based wellness modalities that support nervous system regulation in distinct but complementary ways. Experiences within the Reset Lounge may support calm brain activity, strengthen heart–body communication, and promote recovery and restoration.
The Reset Lounge was designed to help ease anxious patterns, support more restful sleep, reduce physical tension, and help shift the body out of a prolonged fight-or-flight state — addressing both the mental and physical effects of stress. This space works beautifully for those new to discovering ways to support their nervous system, as well as for individuals seeking approaches that integrate seamlessly with their existing plan of care. Whether used occasionally or as part of a broader plan, the Reset Lounge offers a supportive environment for restoring balance and ease — allowing you to reset.

This 20 session program (~45 minutes) is designed to help retrain the nervous system through repeated exposure to calming inputs and neuromodulation. Because the nervous system learns through repetition, more frequent sessions are recommended early in the process. While scheduling is flexible, most clients complete the program over about 6 weeks, with more frequent sessions during the first two weeks to help establish regulation.

Guided Breathing
Your first Reset Lounge visit begins with a guided breathing session designed to help your nervous system shift out of stress and into a more regulated state. This practice uses slow, rhythmic breathing paired with heart-focused awareness and a positive emotional focus to support calm, balanced nervous system activity. Regular practice of this style of breathing has been shown to improve stress resilience, emotional balance, and the body’s ability to recover more quickly from everyday stressors. During this session, we’ll also orient you to the tools used throughout the Reset Lounge so you feel comfortable returning for independent sessions. The breathing technique you learn here is simple, effective, and designed to be something you can use anytime your body needs a reset.
Therapeutic Modalities
HeartMath Biofeedback provides real-time insight into how your nervous system responds to stress, empowering you to see how small, intentional shifts in breathing and focus can directly influence your body’s sense of calm. Using a simple, non-invasive sensor connected to an interactive app, this experience allows you to visually track changes in heart rate variability as you practice gentle regulation techniques. Sessions typically last 5-10 minutes and are designed to feel intuitive and grounding. Backed by a strong body of research, HeartMath supports emotional balance, resilience, and stress recovery.
Alpha-Stim is a neuromodulation device designed to help reduce anxiety and support more restful sleep, offering a gentle way to calm an overactive nervous system. Many individuals notice benefits within just a few sessions, with cumulative effects developing over time — which is why we offer an in-office program to support consistency and maximize benefit. The device works by delivering subtle low-level electrical microcurrents that encourage balanced brain activity. Alpha-Stim is FDA-approved for the treatment of anxiety and insomnia and has been utilized by respected healthcare systems, including national organizations focused on stress and trauma recovery. Since Alpha-Stim is an FDA-approved treatment, a mental health evaluation is required to ensure it’s a safe and appropriate option for you.
Far Infrared Mat Therapy provides deeply soothing warmth that penetrates muscles and tissues to help ease physical tension and support joint comfort. Using far infrared wavelengths, the mat promotes relaxation beyond the surface, encouraging the body to release held stress and soften areas of discomfort. This modality complements the nervous system–focused experiences in the Reset Lounge by pairing gentle heat with a sense of safety and ease, helping the body shift out of stress mode. Heat levels are fully adjustable, allowing each individual to find what feels most supportive and comfortable during their session.
