Barnard College: Pioneering Stress Relief and Wellness
The Francine A. LeFrak Foundation Center of Well-being at Barnard College is breaking new ground as the first to integrate REJen, an innovative focused on enhancing physical and mental health. This first-of-its-kind healing space, made possible by the generous support of philanthropist and wellness innovator jennifer carolyn king , offers the Barnard unique opportunities to regenerate, reset, and alleviate stress.
ReJen features three advanced modalities: the Apple Vision Pro Goggles, The Sensate , and The Shiftwave Chair. The ShiftWave Chair, a zero-gravity recliner, utilizes pulsed pressure waves to stimulate the nervous system, boost circulation, and encourage muscle recovery, providing both immediate and long-term health benefits.
Our heartfelt goes to Jennifer Carolyn King, Tim Fredel, and the Rugged Elegance Foundation for their incredible generosity, which has made this initiative possible.
