When Men's Journal sent contributor Joseph Hooper to investigate where high-performing athletes were going to recover, regenerate, and push human performance further than training alone could take them, he came to Ascent. The resulting feature — Building the New Super Athlete — named our facility "the gym of the future" and put the CVAC technology Heather Hiniker built her practice around in front of a national audience.

More than a decade later, the recognition still defines what Ascent stands for: a place where the technology actually does the work, the science is real, and the outcomes are measurable.
