Health Optimisation in Upminster : Cryotherapy, HBOT, Red Light Therapy, Compression Boost at BE SUPERHUMAN If you live in Upminster, you already know the trade-off that comes with it. You get the leafy streets, a proper town centre rather than another strip of chain shops, and genuinely good transport links considering how far east you are. What a lot of people don’t realise is that you don’t need to travel into central London for serious recovery and health optimisation treatment either. BE SUPERHUMAN has been part of Upminster for years, offering the same standard of care you’d find at any of our central London clinics, without the commute. This is a proper guide to everything available at our Upminster clinic, for anyone in Havering, Hornchurch, Cranham, Emerson Park or further out into Essex who hasn’t made the trip in yet. A Bit About Upminster Itself Upminster has always had its own character. Sitting at the eastern terminus of the District line, with c2c services running into Fenchurch Street in around twenty minutes, it’s well connected without feeling like a typical commuter suburb. The town grew out of a genuinely rural Essex village rather than being built from scratch as a satellite of London, and there’s history here to prove it, the Upminster Windmill has stood since 1803, right in the middle of what’s now a busy, well-established town centre. A lot of residents here commute daily into the City or Canary Wharf, which means dealing with exactly the same fatigue, desk-bound stiffness and general depletion as everyone else working in central London, just with a longer journey home at the end of the day. That’s exactly the gap our Upminster clinic exists to close. Cryotherapy We offer three distinct types of cryotherapy at our Upminster clinic, each suited to a different need. Whole Body Cryotherapy involves stepping into our cold chamber for 3.5 to 6 minutes of dry, sub-zero air, designed to deliver a fast, full-body reset. Protective gloves, socks and slippers are provided throughout. It’s our most popular cryotherapy option, well suited to invigorating the nervous system, supporting circulation, and giving your energy a genuine lift, whether that’s before a long day or after an intense workout. Local Cryotherapy targets one specific area rather than your whole body. A trained therapist directs a focused stream of cold air onto a stiff joint, tight shoulder, or sore muscle for 5 to 10 minutes, ideal for anyone managing a specific ache from training, running, or a desk-bound job. Cryotherapy Facial applies a gentle, controlled cooling breeze across the face and neck for 10 to 15 minutes, designed to ease puffiness, support natural circulation, and leave your skin looking brighter, with zero downtime. It’s an easy one to fit into a lunch break. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Our Upminster clinic offers three tiers of HBOT, so there’s an option suited to wherever you’re starting from. Silver Tank is a comfortable, soft-shell chamber running at a gentle 1.3 ATA, with sessions lasting around 60 minutes. It’s the most accessible entry point, well suited to everyday recovery and general wellbeing, particularly if you’ve never tried HBOT before. Gold Tank is a firmer, hard-shell chamber running at 1.5 ATA, with sessions typically lasting 60 to 90 minutes. This tends to suit more seriously active clients wanting deeper recovery support after intense training. Platinum Deluxe Tank offers flexible pressure settings between 1.5 and 2.0 ATA in a spacious hard-shell chamber, with a built-in screen if you’d rather watch something than simply rest. Sessions run 60 to 90 minutes and it’s our most thorough HBOT option. Red Light Therapy A full-body red light therapy session uses targeted red and near-infrared wavelengths to support cellular energy production and your body’s natural repair processes. Sessions last around 15 minutes, with zero downtime afterwards, making it easy to fit around a working day. It’s commonly used to support skin vitality, muscle recovery, and general cellular energy. Compression Therapy Dynamic compression therapy uses full-leg garments divided into chambers that inflate and deflate in sequence, starting at your feet and working upward, mimicking your body’s natural muscle pump. Sessions run between 30 and 60 minutes, and it’s especially popular with anyone dealing with heavy, tired legs, whether that’s from a long commute, a physically demanding job, or regular training. IV Nutritional Therapy Our IV therapy delivers hydration and nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing digestion entirely for faster, more complete absorption. This includes general hydration and vitamin support, as well as NAD+ IV therapy, which is prescribed by a doctor following a full medical consultation. It’s a popular option for anyone who’s struggled to keep up with hydration through drinking alone, or who wants a more direct route to topping up after a demanding week. Built the Same Way as Our Central London Clinics Nothing about the Upminster experience is a scaled-down version of what’s available elsewhere. Every visit starts with a proper conversation about what you’re actually trying to achieve, whether that’s managing the fatigue of a long commute, recovering better after training, or simply wanting to feel more like yourself day to day. From there, we build a routine around your goals rather than putting you through a generic package. Who We See at Our Upminster Clinic It’s a genuine mix of people. Commuters looking for a proper reset before or after the trip into the City. Local runners and gym-goers who’d otherwise have to travel into London for decent recovery facilities. People simply looking to build a bit more proactive care into their week without adding another hour onto an already long day.
