Founded by Katie and Andy Mant in 2017, BON CHARGE has become a leading brand in wellness, offering science-backed technology solutions designed to simplify and enhance well-being.
Australian ballerina, Benedicte Bemet, 31, a principal ballerina at The Australian Ballet, swears by the benefits of hot/cold therapy.
Using her BON CHARGE Infrared Sauna Blanket, she spends 15 minutes in the heat before following it with a cold swim, a process she repeats a couple of times.
“It increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and helps me relax and sleep better at night,” she explains.
For her, recovery isn’t just about intense treatments, it’s about maintaining a balanced and gentle approach post-season. “If I don’t move at all, I’ll often get back pain and be more ache-y in general. I stay active in a gentle way through swimming and light yoga/stretching.”
If she experiences muscle pain, she relies on Epsom salt baths and hot/cold therapy as the best ways to soothe her body.
As each ballet performance places different stresses on the body, recovery becomes tailored to the demands of the role performed.
For example, when dancing as the Sugar Plum Fairy in The Nutcracker, the lower legs bear much of the strain. To manage this, she focuses her recovery efforts on these areas. “Calf rises and stair running have been beneficial for my tendons in terms of warming up and keeping my workload consistent,” Benedicte reveals.
The professional ballerina also emphasises the importance of using her BON CHARGE Infrared Sauna Blanket for icing and hot/cold therapy to help manage lactic acid build-up and reduce swelling after such intense physical demands.
Benedicte explains that transitioning from the intense pace of a ballet season to a more relaxed post-season routine can be tricky.
She finds that the key to decompressing is reconnecting with nature and spending time with loved ones outside of work. “When we’re in season, we can spend up to 10-12 hours in the theatre each day, and it can feel all-consuming,” she explains.
She enjoys slowing down after a season by spending time near the ocean, which helps her regain balance. “I try to take each day slowly because during the season, my everyday pace can be quite fast. The ocean relaxes me, and I feel it brings me back to balance,” Benedicte says.
Shoppers have given the Infrared Sauna Blanket, a 4.9-star rating on BON CHARGE’s website.
“I take my daily nap with my sauna blanket. The results are hard to put into words. It is warm, relaxing and I get the best power naps ever,” one person said.
“Zero regrets. I am a very difficult-to-please person so me leaving a five-star review for a product is unheard of because if something isn’t working right with it, I will find it. But this blanket has changed my life,” another person added.
“This sauna blanket is amazing! It’s easy to set up, heats up quickly, and provides a deep, relaxing session,” a third person said.
