Where do I start! This place has been such a blessing to my husband and his health. He has ALS and there is absolutely no treatment for this horrible illness. We stumbled into Ascent by an article of someone who had ALS and was getting. Good results with the treatments in Ascent so we decided to give it a try and have been regulars ever since. We go twice a week and my husband does the CVAC and SCENAR therapy. He does PEMF. once a week. He also gets an IV (vitamin B and Meyers Cocktail) once a month and has been getting NAD once a week via injection. We truly feels these treatments are helping stay as strong as he possibly can. But besides the great treatments the staff is just amazing. Danielle who does the SCENAR therapy is amazing and has been our guardian angel. She has so much experience and knowledge! We HIGHLY recommend her and her work. Heather (the owner), Olivia, Cynthia, Violet, and Yvette (the girls that work the rest of the treatments) are just as amazing. They are kind, helpful, supportive and treat us like family! This is the kind of care everyone who is ill should get and we are so appreciative of everyone here at Ascent. I have done their Red light therapy and love it! I also take both my girls to Yvette for her NuEnerChi/Sports therapy treatments when they have a sports injury or need a good massage. Overall, this place is the real deal! I call it our saving grace! read more

I was diagnosed 18 months ago with a horrible, terminal illness. This condition takes your life in 24 months on average and it always wins. My team of doctors are encouraging, but they merely measure my decline. I met a young man through a pickleball friend of mine with the same disease. We were diagnosed at the same time. He told me all about Ascent and everything they do. I literally started their full treatment recommendations the very next day. Today, 16 months later, my friend and I are the only two people that our doctors know of that are just barely progressing. We are at Ascent 3X a week for the CVAC, BioModulator w/Recharge, NanoVi and Pulse PEMF. Both me and my friend have only declined a minimal amount. Probably a 15% total decline so far. My doctors are amazed and want to learn more about what exactly we're doing. The entire team at Ascent is wonderful. Heather, Olivia, Cynthia, Violette, Ivette and Jordyn take GREAT care of us and all of their clients. We're hoping to stretch out our battle for another 10 years if possible. We are grateful for all of their amazing treatments and everyone on their team. read more

Having recently had knee surgery I am experiencing an increase in swelling in my leg, and after hearing the great work Heather and her team have done to help rehab others I had to try it out. Firstly they put me in the Ballancer Pro which is designed to help with massaging out the extra fluid in the legs and that paired with the Bemer PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) which helps increase blood flow to the injured area helped decrease the inflammation and increase range of motion in my knee. After the lymphatic massage Heather then put me into a space capsule looking thing called a CVAC pod which induces blood flow which can help relieve the inflammation. In addition to bringing fresh oxygen and nutrients to the injured area and help flush out the toxins. I would strongly recommend going to see the crew at Ascent if you are recovering from an Injury, an operation, over training or just the stress that life throws at us, that and they are an amazing team. I can't thank you guys enough! read more

What an amazing team.....and such expansive knowledge of many different wellness modalities! Ascent has the latest health and wellness technology so you can achieve optimal health. The CVAC Pod has helped me increase my endurance and helps me with recovery after workouts. I'm 58 and I push myself pretty hard, so it's awesome to have products like the CVAC Pod and Lightstim to help me recover and optimize my natural body healing mechanisms! Recently, I had a pretty bad hamstring pull.... using the BEMER mat (PEMF Therapy), LightStim and CVAC, cut my recovery time in half! People tell me I look younger too....haha...not my goal, but I'll take it. Great equipment doesn't mean much without a great team to advise their clients...The Ascent Team I give an A+++++++++++++ read more

Ascent - P in the pod! CVAC POD that is.. Great to be back! - Physical Therapy Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Being a very active weekend warrior from jiu jitsu, SUP, surfing, motorcycle racing, swimming etc.. I was looking for something to help me with those sometimes never ending recovery times, and something to help push me to the next level. Then I had heard about Ascent. I read up on it and figured what the heck I gotta try this out! From the moment I started the staff at Ascent is always helpful, friendly and attentive. After about a month of doing the session I really started to notice a huge difference in my ability to breath more clearly. I have always had sinus issues and they seem to have completely cleared up! Next I noticed a huge difference in my cardio at jiu jitsu. I have been able to keep rolling and not "gas out" as early as before. and lastly it has really started to help with my recovery times. cutting them down to almost a day or so. CVAC was the only thing i changed in my workout routine. Im blown away by the results. Once I really started to see the benefits of CVAC this place started blowing up!! I saw on instagram some of my favorite MMA fighters using Ascent CVAC, then later I heard Ian McCall on the joe rogan experience talking about it also! They were even in Mens Journal in an article called "building the super athlete." With all this new media coverage the staff has maintained the friendliness and attentiveness that really sold me in the first place. read more

I love Ascent! I went there to try out the Bemer therapy before deciding if I would purchase one. Everyone there is so amazing! After going five days a week for two weeks, I felt like family! I was also introduced to X39 patches and an excellent protein drink! They also have red light therapy, the bed looks amazing though I didn't try it, and hypobaric pods. I am so glad I found this place! read more

I tried Bemer for an ankle injury and I was sold! For the first time in many years I've been pain free for an entire day. I was able to go for a walk on the beach later that day and yet go to sleep later without my usual discomfort after exercising! Thank you Heather for taking the time to go over the process and what to expect. I will definitely be back to sign up for a complete program! read more

I was a skeptic and I am still generally averse to alternative health treatments. An acquaintance turned me on to this place knowing of my health situation. As I was rather distressed from my headaches and fatigue, I stepped on my doubt and went. I can say that it has really helped with energizing me and after my sessions I usually leave feeling motivated and encouraged. I've been going to this place for a few years now (at least once a week). It has become a regular part of my routine. If youre looking for a boost to your performance, whatever your baseline may be, give this place a try. Also Heather and the ladies are very pleasant and accommodating. read more

The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Heather the owner (and all her staff) are passionate about health and wellness. They offer a wide variety of services like to promote healing within I personally the CVAC for my Iron Man training however they also have an infrared bed, and two Beamers. read more

Ascent - Physical Therapy Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

We stumbled across Ascent back in 2016 while vacationing in Newport. My kids are athletes, and my daughter had been struggling with RA. We live 4 hours away and had tried several other places similar to Ascent. I will say, it's well worth the 4 hour drive! The knowledge Heather has is absolutely amazing! We first started with the CVAC pod, and lightstim after a recent wrist surgery my son had. After 1 session we were blown away with the movement he had back in his wrist. We since have added Ballancer Pro, Bemer (PEMF therapy) and BioCharger. The modalities, knowledge and the entire Ascent team is far from Amazing. My daughter's RA is now at bay!!! Can't thank them enough for everything they have done to gain our health back. read more

Wanted to give a shout out to ASCENT- Adaptation and Regeneration Center in Newport Beach. I am in awe of the cutting-edge technology Ascent uses to achieve optimal health and wellness for their clients. Each device targets a different system in the body on the cellular level. I'm most familiar with BEMER and their red light therapy (Lightstim LED) bed. Both of these technologies incorporate a red light function that have been proven to rebuild collagen/elastin and slow down the aging process. I consider them rejuvenating! I love that they have not only help my pain go away, but as an added bonus decreased the appearance of my wrinkles! I've been using the BEMER (PEMF therapy) device for the last 2.5 years. I loved it so much I bought one for my home. Now my whole family benefits . It helps me with my aches and pains + boosts my immune system . I'm an active 51-year-old mother of 4 with a degenerative disc who loves yoga and living life to the fullest. Sometimes I push myself physically. BEMER helps balance me out, especially hormonally since I'm at the perimenopausal stage. I noticed my vision has also improved and my two little skin tags on my eyelid have disappeared completely! The staff Is warm, welcoming and so knowledgeable! I have so much respect & admiration for Heather Hiniker, Ascent's CEO & president. She clearly articulates exactly what each device does and can explain it so that anybody can understand. Ascent is definitely Orange County's one stop shop for longevity, bio-hacking and Human Performance. I've yet to find another facility that compares read more

BEMER therapy has been so helpful to me!! I have been dealing with sesamoiditis on my left foot and it has been very painful walking and applying any kind of pressure on my foot. I was referred to Ascent by a friend to try out a treatment and see if it would help me out. Best thing ever!! I was given a post-op boot by my doctor along with ibuprofen for the pain and swelling and was told to stay off of my foot as much as possible. If the boot wasn't going to help, then the next option would be a steroid shot and even surgery. After one week of BEMER on my foot, I have been boot-free and pain-free for months!! I can wear heels, exercise, and spend long periods of time on my feet and there is no pain! I now go regularly just to avoid going back to being in any pain. Along with helping my foot, I have had more energy, I sleep better at night, I can focus better, and the list just goes on and on. Heather and all staff at Ascent are amazing! You are greeted right away and made to feel like you truly matter and everyone cares for you. They make sure to ask many questions about what is bothering you to better help direct you to the best fit machine. They remember who you are and it just makes the difference in the world! HIGHLY recommended. read more

I found out about Ascent through a good friend and MMA fighter, Orlando Sanchez. I called them and asked them a few questions and it was just the place I was looking for. I completely regularly as a cyclist and a jiu jitsu fighter and after speaking to Heather on the phone, I knew this place was for me. The facility is large and clean and the staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Sitting in a CVAC pod is interesting and requires a bit of training to get used to the process. After a few visits I noticed that I started recovering from rides quicker than usual. After a few weeks I noticed that my cardio has improved quite a bit.l I'm hooked on this place! If you're a competitive athlete looking for a bit of an edge you need to check out Ascent! read more

I'm writing from inside my CVAC pod ... Heather and Kristin are two of the most amazing people I know! They are caring, knowledgable, and make sure each client is given the most appropriate treatment protocol. I've been going here for a year, and YES - this really does help with conditioning and recovery! It's helped me through two surgeries and multiple obstacle races. The change in my stamina and recovery time is amazing and I would recommend Ascent to anyone in a second. read more

I came to Ascent to use the BEMER. It was my first experience. I wanted to stop taking drugs and find alternative natural therapies to help with asthma and hearth health issues. I had researched a lot about it and wanted to give it a try. I was welcomed most kindly by the staff. They patiently explained everything an always with a smile and an eagerness to help. After my first therapy, I felt calm and peaceful. Later in the day, I noticed an increase in energy and clarity. I continued going and am currently still going to Ascent. I have an increased general well-being and increased health throughout. Most importantly, this was confirmed by results of various tests ordered by my doctor which showed increased blood oxygen and circulation. I'm an active, retired athlete and happy with the increased stamina and energy that is no longer inhibited by health issues. I would highly recommend Ascent for their dedication and professionalism and their desire to help people. They offer other services a well and will help you decide what is best for your needs. read more

Ascent is the only place I've been to where I feel immediate improvement and walk out healthier than when I arrived. I have injuries that stem back years of sports and military. Injuries that I just dealt with are now finally being healed. The staff is the best. They make you feel like family and make sure you're the most comfortable you can be. Give Ascent a try. Guarantee you'll agree with this review. read more

Heather and Kristin are an absolutely dynamic duo who make Ascent a truly phenomenal facility. I first heard of CVAC while experiencing cryotherapy at the Icelab just a few miles away. Coincidentally I ran into Heather, the owner while she was getting her own session a few weeks later. After asking her a few questions, and finding myself quite intrigued I set up an appointment for a few days later! I met with Kristin and she was an absolute sweet heart. She has a way of making you feel at ease while fully explaining everything I needed to know! I initially started Cvac to speed up my metabolism, and help me out of a plateau I had been struggling with. I was quite skeptical but I thought I'd give it a shot. It has now been 6 months since I've begun and I feel excellent. It's amazing the progress I've made! My weight loss has kicked back into gear, my stamina in my workouts has increased 10 fold, my skin has quite the glow and truthfully I haven't felt this good in ages. Over the holidays I had to take a few weeks off due to my crazy schedule and definitely noticed my body craving those sessions in the pod. I am very blessed to have found Ascent and urge anyone who is interested in CVAC to schedule an appointment. read more

If you are lucky enough to live close enough to try Ascent you are blessed! They can't tell you the many things it helps due to FDA and other laws - but I can. Chronic fatigue, Cfs, Fibromyalgia, inflammatory conditions like arthritis, injuries, old injuries - conditioning - these are all helped in ways not possible by other treatment methods. The people who run this place are first rate and make the experience wonderful! read more

Ascent - Physical Therapy Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I love Ascent! I'd say I'm a pretty healthy person but I wanted to take it up a notch. Talk around the gym said cvac was the cool new thing. I decided to try it out. Wow! It was an amazing experience! My recovery time was the first thing I noticed. I can work out and not get as tired, I'll only be sore for half the time, and I sleep like a baby every night! I signed up for the membership and it was the best decision. I feel at the top of my game! Thanks to the ladies there! read more

As a Traditional Naturopath I can share that the CVAC at Ascent is a very powerful tool. I have experienced this first hand and share the the CVAC system can not only enhance your performance overall, but can also be very impactful for those with chronic illness. It is truly an amazing tool all around. Add to this is my opinion that the team at Ascent of Heather and Christine are two amazing people in and by themselves. Thank you Ascent! read more

I loved my time doing CVC in Orange county. I did several sessions when I lived in Southern California. CVAC is a life empowering treatment. It improved my lung capacity, gave me more energy, and took away inflammation in my body. When you do CVAC, you go inside this small glass capsule. The machine takes you through various altitudes which brings more oxygen into your body. Its way better than the hyperbaric chamber because CVAC does variations in altitude wheras hyperbaric stays constant. Its the variations that makes CVAC superior to hyperbaric. After a few sessions, I went back on the sports field and restarted my participation in soccer and ultimate frisbee. I was running faster, my cardiovascular endurance immediately improved, my aches were gone. I felt like I was 15 years old again! Heather and Christine are kind, caring and supportive. As soon as I met them, they both had a very calming demeanor. I highly recommend Ascent CVAC if you want to get more out of your body. read more

CVAC and BEMER have helped me tremendously with my health. Ame and Heather are awesome to work with and I appreciate their care and concern. They are very tuned in to your health needs and work with you to maximize your sessions. read more

I have very little cartilage left in one knee from arthritis a skiing accident, and I play tennis 5 days a week. I was skeptical, but I thought I'd give Bemer therapy a try for the complementary eight minutes session. Even after one session I did feel less pain, so I bought a 10 pack - it works out to $19 per session. After the third session my knee felt great- no pain, after constant soreness and I had tried everything -Cortizone injections, physical therapy, Chiropractic, acupuncture, topical, ice, hydrotherapy, etc.. It also helped my shoulder pain and my whole body felt rejuvenated and energized.Bemer therapy has also really helped my husband's chronic back pain, by increasing the circulation and getting Rid of the bad cells. I've referred so many friends from my tennis club And anyone who is fatigued or needs help recovering from exercise or suffers from bad circulation.I'm a real believer now! read more

My hubby has been fighting a rare form of cancer called GIST for over three years. The first year and a half he responded well to his chemo treatments. However, his tumors mutated and the specific chemo he was on stopped working. Long story short he is now on the third FDA approved drug for his type of cancer and it has only kept a portion of his tumors stable for the past year. Meanwhile multiple tumors in the liver have continued to grow and he has been undergoing a special type of radiation called the Y90. I have followed Heather and the amazing advanced technological therapies that she offers at Ascent for several years now. We unfortunately never really considered alternative care until recently because my hubby had been doing ok. He started CVAC and Bemer therapy the week before Thanksgiving this year and let me tell you... What a difference it has made! We instantly saw color change, increased energy, and his posture greatly improved due to the decrease in pain/inflammation. After a week of CVAC and Bemer, his urine changed from Copper to light yellow (his urine has been Copper since diagnosis even after drinking a galling of water daily). Following a month of CVAC and Bemer we received fabulous news that my hubby's tumors were completely stable. This was miraculous news as his liver tumors have not been stable for over a year. We completely attribute this new found stability with CVAC/Bemer as his chemo has not been successful in keeping his tumors stable. We are continuing CVAC/Bemer therapies three times a week indefinitely. We look forward to seeing both Heathers and Ame during our visits and we feel so blessed that we were introduced to these treatment options. read more

A little over 6 weeks ago I was in an accident that, if I'm honest, was the most terrifying experience of my life. Physically I came out of it with multiple injuries and thankfully my life but it left me in a state of truly feeling like I had nothing left. I've always been the person to try to minimize pain or discomfort in myself in order to never be an "inconvenience" towards others because God forbid I ever need help, but Heather, the owner, saw right through that and I'm so incredibly appreciative that she did. She invited me to take the steps I needed to get myself back on track at her amazing facility. She had me in the CVAC, LightStim, BallancerPro and between that and the microcurrent/frequency therapies I'm about 80% recovered already with injuries that normally would take months! Considering I am just now getting approved for seeing an ortho and PT through my insurance I'm thanking my lucky stars that there are alternative therapies out there because I would absolutely not be where I'm at if there weren't. It's obvious that the team at care deeply about those they help and that care begins with their CEO, Heather. read more

Ascent has been a total bright light in my wellness journey. Heather and Ame have bent over backwards to help me feel better and perform at the highest level. From the moment I met their team they have made me feel like family and they do everything and anything they can to help their clients along a healthier path. Heather and Ame are constantly searching for new innovative programs to bring to their clients as well. All in all, I couldn't be luckier to have found them and highly recommend visiting their wellness center! read more

I started to go to Ascent post surgery... after two weeks of CVAC and BEMER treatments, my doctor reported that I was healing twice as fast as the average person. The facility is amazing, and both Heathers and Ame are caring, knowledgeable, and beautiful inside and out! read more

The other reviews cover the training/fitness aspect, which I have also experienced. But my reason for starting was more health related though they make no claims in this area (there is current research being done in the health area however). My sinuses have been a mess for years, and though it's not an over night change or a quick fix, I am experiencing improvement and intend to continue. It also seems to be helping my joints It's also an amazing way to unwind and relax. Heather and Kristin are amazing, and I always feel nurtured and taken well care of. Also, the clients are an interesting group of people and you'll also learn a lot and enjoy meeting them as well! read more
