Provider’s Statement of Service(s):
8th Element AVL has the only CVAC pod in the region. CVAC stands for Cyclic Variations in Adaptive Conditioning. As you sit comfortable in the pod, an external pump creates constant and rapid changes of pressure, simulating increases and decreases in altitude. This is not the constant pressure of a hyperbaric chamber, but rather a rhythmic stimulation that relaxes the body. The change in barometric pressure signals the body to make more red blood cells and to bring oxygen and healing to the every cell in the body. The CVAC pod reduces inflammation, reduces pain, promotes healing, reduces swelling, supports immunity, and improves mental focus.
