At Newmarket Health & Wellness Center, we’re committed to pioneering innovative health solutions for athletes aiming for peak performance and recovery. Following the success of our session with pro soccer player Julian Dunn, we’re thrilled to spotlight the HBOT experience of Alana Cook, a professional MMA fighter, UBC professor, dedicated Métis matriarch-in-training and an inspiring figure both in and out of the ring.
Alana, known for her resilience in the ring and her work with @walkinglikewarriors – culturally safe self-defense programs for Indigenous youth and women – recently explored the benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at our center. An enthusiast of both the discipline required in mixed martial arts and the joy of Corgi companionship, Alana’s journey into HBOT was driven by a desire to enhance her recovery processes and improve her athletic performance.
After her first HBOT session, Alana shared her immediate feedback, which was overwhelmingly positive. “Omg Sonia, I slept so good!” she exclaimed, noting significant improvements in her physical well-being. “My back and neck kept cracking every time I turned over, so I think I was relaxed. My knee felt so good today, and I performed very well in sparring!”
Alana’s HBOT journey is a powerful endorsement of how innovative therapies like HBOT can significantly impact an athlete’s recovery and performance capabilities.
Her story, alongside Julian Dunn’s, highlights the diverse benefits of HBOT for athletes from various disciplines, reinforcing our commitment to health and wellness.
As we continue to support champions like Alana and Julian, stay tuned for more insights into how Newmarket Health & Wellness Center is revolutionizing athletic recovery and performance.
