Clinical Perspective
"The pressure we apply to the nervous system isn't just comforting; it's a measurable dampening of sympathetic arousal."
We sat down with leading somnologist Dr. Aris Thorne to discuss the physiological mechanisms behind weight modalities and their profound effect on nocturnal cortisol reduction. Dr. Thorne explains how structured environments dictate recovery efficiency.
