DOM x Re Place London

We have visited Re Place in Notting Hill in London, which is a wellness and recovery studio. We believe in the importance of moving and creating a balance in your everyday life, which then also means recovery for both the body and the brain.

How to recover your body in the best possible way
At Re Place they offer a body and mind experience to restore and recover both the body and mind, which we had the opportunity to try. We started by testing Body Rollers, which combine massage techniques that are both lymphatic draining and myofascial releasing, which means that the whole body can be treated. We were allowed to go to the room downstairs free from the sight of the streets of Notting Hill. Body Rollers are scattered around the room but are surrounded by curtains so you can have a private session if you want or if you want to share the experience with a friend. It suited us perfectly as a group as it is a fun activity to do together. You have full control over the pressure and speed of the massage machine and it is a quick and uncomplicated experience that does not require changing or showering afterward. We had to settle down at each Body Roller and its rotating wooden beads that promote lymphatic drainage began to rotate. The shape of the beads helps the body and one's system to start working and recover. It feels soft on the body and the infrared therapy warms the body to a comfortable temperature, you really feel how the body recovers and that the muscles relax. At each roller, there is a screen that shows how long you have left in each position and that you can regulate the speed and control the heat of the infrared therapy. The technology in these Body Rollers instantly makes you feel lighter, softer, and lifted, which we agree with.

The world's first meditation pod - Somadome
Somadome is the world's first technology-enabled meditation pod. You can put on a pair of headphones and settle down in the small dome. It uses LED light therapy and healing magnets, leading to deep relaxation and calm throughout the body. It's like a normal meditation, but the pod helps you relax faster and easier than normal meditation. Most people get into a meditative state within minutes of using the pod, something that can be very difficult to get into with regular meditation on your own. It was very relaxing, and we agree that you get into the meditative state much faster than with regular traditional mediation.
