Progress often comes with a price, and few things illustrate this better than the rise of forever chemicals in our environment. At first, products like non-stick cookware, fire retardants, and everyday packaging seemed like brilliant innovations—convenient, durable, and built to last. But beneath the surface, their chemical composition has led to staggering consequences for our health and ecosystems. While global efforts are underway to reduce their impact, it’s crucial for individuals to understand what these chemicals are and how to minimize their presence in daily life.
PFAS (Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances), also known as the Forever Chemicals, are a large chemical family of over 10,000 highly persistent chemicals that don’t occur in nature. What does it mean that they are persistent? Basically, they spread, for example from soil to water, and they are very difficult to break down.
Regulations on forever chemicals are finally gaining traction, but these toxic compounds are still lurking in countless everyday products across the U.S., posing serious health risks. The big question is—how can we protect ourselves? One key step is reducing exposure by making smarter choices about what we buy and use. Another crucial approach is supporting the body’s natural detoxification processes, helping to counteract the impact of these persistent chemicals.
Detoxification plays a vital role in overall health, whether it’s through exercise, sweating, or innovative bio-hacks designed to speed up the process. At Reset, there are plenty of options to support your detox journey. But before diving in, it’s essential to prepare your body properly. Using binders can help ensure toxins are effectively eliminated rather than just stirred up and recirculated—making detoxing both safer and more effective.
The HOCATT Ozone Sauna is a powerful tool for detoxification, combining multiple therapies into one session to maximize results. This innovative system works by:
By integrating these cutting-edge therapies, the HOCATT provides a comprehensive detox experience, making it a highly effective way to support your body’s natural cleansing process.
The HOCATT sauna utilizes far infrared technology to enhance detoxification and overall wellness. Meanwhile, our infrared sauna incorporates near, mid, and far infrared wavelengths, offering a broader range of benefits. Functional medicine doctors have long recommended infrared therapy for its ability to support detoxification, boost circulation, and promote recovery. Dr. Will Cole explores these benefits in-depth—his article is a great resource for learning more.
Movement is a powerful tool for detoxification. Exercise increases circulation, stimulates the lymphatic system, and promotes sweating—one of the body’s natural ways to flush out toxins. At Reset, we offer options to support your fitness journey, whether you're just getting started or looking to take your routine to the next level. Our Revive Pilates sessions combine controlled movement with breathwork to strengthen the body while enhancing detoxification, helping you feel stronger, balanced, and refreshed.
The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in detoxification, helping the body flush out toxins and maintain overall health. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump, meaning it relies on movement to keep things flowing. Vibration therapy provides an efficient way to stimulate lymph drainage, supporting detoxification while also strengthening the immune system. This gentle yet powerful modality helps kick-start the process, making it easier for your body to eliminate waste and function at its best.
While we can’t completely avoid exposure to forever chemicals, we can take steps to minimize their impact on our health. Supporting the body’s natural detoxification process is key—helping it eliminate toxins more efficiently and reducing the burden these chemicals place on our systems. From the deep-cleansing power of the HOCATT ozone sauna to the targeted benefits of infrared therapy, vibration therapy, and pilates, these modalities work together to enhance detoxification, boost circulation, and support overall well-being. The reality is, forever chemicals aren’t going away anytime soon, but by making intentional choices about how we care for our bodies, we can help protect ourselves and optimize our health.
