OxeFit Is Free All September for Every FIT LA Patient
Normally $75 a session. For the whole month of September, it’s $0 — no cap, no pack to buy, five days a week. Book each session and come use the machine.
Open to any established patient of The Fascia Institute of LA — and to new patients who book an evaluation during September.
In plain terms, with nothing buried
We publish our prices openly, so we’re going to be just as plain about giving something away. Every OxeFit session at our Beverly Hills studio is free for the month of September 2026. That is the entire promotion. There is no pack you have to buy first, no membership, no upsell at the door.
- What’s freeEvery self-guided OxeFit session, September 1–30, 2026. Regular rate is $75 per session or $600 for a 10-pack — see our published pricing.
- How manyNo cap. The studio runs five days a week and you’re welcome as often as there’s an open slot.
- One catchBook each session in advance. There’s one machine and one September. Reserving your slot is the only thing we ask.
- Who qualifiesAny established patient of The Fascia Institute of LA — plus new patients who book an evaluation with us during September.
- First visitYour first session includes an orientation and a baseline strength and left-versus-right symmetry reading, so the numbers you build on are your own.
- Not includedPhysician procedures, Fascial Mapping, PEMF, red light, shockwave, and TECAR are billed normally. This offer covers OxeFit only.
- CancellationsFree sessions still occupy a slot someone else wanted. Please give us 24 hours if plans change. Repeated no-shows may end access for the month.
- EndsMidnight, September 30, 2026. Sessions cannot be banked or rolled into October. [EDITOR: confirm Labor Day — Monday, September 7, 2026 — studio hours, or delete this note.]
Why a clinic would give away its strength equipment
Because the loading is not the extra. It’s the part that makes the rest hold.
A procedure changes the tissue. Hydrofascia Release restores glide where fascia was stuck. Dextrose prolotherapy and ProloBoost PRP ask a ligament or tendon to rebuild. But tissue only reorganizes around the demand you place on it afterward. Skip the loading and you are asking a repaired structure to hold up a body that hasn’t gotten any stronger. Progressive resistance training is not a nice-to-have bolted onto rehab — an umbrella review of eighteen systematic reviews across musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, and geriatric physical therapy found it reliably builds strength and is well tolerated as a therapy intervention.1 It’s the foundation.
For some conditions, the loading is the treatment. In chronic Achilles tendinopathy, a randomized trial found that twelve weeks of heavy, slow resistance produced good clinical improvement that held at a year — as did eccentric training.14 And in the fascial work I first published on chronic hamstring injury, the hydrodissection was always paired with a structured rehabilitation protocol afterward, never given alone.15 The procedure opens a window. What you do in that window decides what you keep.
What we kept running into is that patients agreed with all of that and still didn’t do it. Not out of laziness — out of friction. A commercial gym is intimidating after an injury, the loads are wrong, nobody is watching your form, and there is no way to know whether the side you hurt is actually catching up to the side you didn’t. So the plan we wrote quietly stopped happening somewhere between the parking lot and the front desk.
Removing the price for a month removes one of those excuses cleanly. It also gives us a real answer to a question we can only guess at right now: how many of our patients will actually load consistently if cost stops being the reason not to. We would rather find that out than keep theorizing about it. If your Fascial Mapping scores improve and then you go home and do nothing, we both wasted the visit.

What the OxeFit actually does
The OxeFit XS1 is a digital resistance platform: instead of a stack of plates, a motor generates the load, a force plate under your feet reads what each side of your body is contributing, and a screen shows you the result while you’re still holding the handles. Practically, that buys you four things a barbell can’t.
- Load you can dial inResistance is set digitally, up to 250 lb, and can change mid-rep. That means we can start absurdly light on a freshly treated area and add load in increments a plate stack doesn’t offer. Machine-based training is not a compromise, either: a meta-analysis comparing machines to free weights found equivalent gains in strength, muscle size, and power.2
- Eccentric emphasisThe system can make the lowering phase harder than the lifting phase — accentuated eccentric loading. Eccentric-emphasis training has been reviewed extensively for its effects on strength, power, and muscle-tendon adaptation.3,4 Worth an honest footnote: when researchers pooled the randomized trials, device-driven eccentric overload was not shown to beat conventional gravity-based training for raw strength.5 We use it because it’s a controllable, well-tolerated way to deliver eccentric load, not because it’s magic.
- Left-versus-right, measuredThe force plate reads each side separately and surfaces asymmetry you almost certainly cannot feel. This matters clinically: in the Delaware-Oslo ACL cohort, more symmetrical quadriceps strength before returning to sport — along with waiting long enough — was associated with substantially lower reinjury rates.6 Read honestly, though, the wider evidence is mixed: a meta-analysis found that simply passing a return-to-sport test battery has not been shown to prevent second injuries,7 and there is no validated universal cutoff for “too much” asymmetry.8 A number informs a decision. It doesn’t make one.
- Feedback while you workOutput shows on a 32-inch screen in real time. In a study of trained athletes, real-time velocity feedback and encouragement each improved in-session training output.9 That’s an acute finding in a small group, not proof of better long-term outcomes — but most people do push harder when the number is looking back at them.
Three people who should book this week
You just had a procedure
You had a Hydrofascia Release, prolotherapy, or PRP, and your clinician told you to load the area progressively once you were cleared. This is the month to actually do it — with the resistance set correctly and someone in the building who knows what you had done.
You’re hypermobile
Graded strengthening sits at the center of care for hypermobility and hEDS10,11 — and it’s also where hypermobile patients get hurt when the load is wrong or the range runs away from them. Controlled, dialed-in resistance with a hard stop at the end range is exactly the setting a bendy body wants.
You keep re-tearing the same thing
Same hamstring, same calf, same oblique, every season. Recurrence after hamstring injury is common, and eccentric loading is the most-studied thing we have to offer against it.12,13 Come find out whether the injured side is still quietly behind.
How to claim it — three steps
- 01Tell us you want in. Request your slots online or call (424) 378-3488. If you’ve been seen here before, that’s all the qualifying you need to do.
- 02Come in for the baseline. First visit, we orient you to the machine and capture your starting force and side-to-side symmetry. Ten minutes. Then you have numbers of your own to chase.
- 03Book the rest of the month. Grab your September slots while they exist. Twice a week for four weeks is a genuinely different body than twice, total.
New to us? Book an evaluation during September and the OxeFit access comes with it. If you’re not sure where to start, the honest first step for most people is a Fascial Map — a 488-point dynamic ultrasound survey that tells us what’s actually restricted before we load anything. Here’s why we start there. Longer-term, OxeFit is one of the self-guided modalities inside The Fascia Performance Program, alongside PEMF and red light.
Check with us first if…
Free doesn’t mean unsupervised judgment. Talk to us before your first session if you’re inside the restricted window after a surgery or injection, if you have an active fracture or an unhealed tear, if you have uncontrolled blood pressure or a cardiac condition that limits exertion, if you’re pregnant, or if you’re in an acute pain flare. In most of those cases the answer isn’t “no” — it’s “yes, with the load and the movements chosen for you.” That conversation takes two minutes and is the difference between a productive month and a setback.
If you’re a current patient with an active plan of care, your sessions should follow it. Ask your clinician which movements to prioritize before you start stacking free sessions.
Questions we expect
Is this really free, or is there a catch?
Really free. No card on file for the session, no pack to buy, no “introductory” rate that converts to something. The only requirement is that you book each slot in advance so the machine isn’t double-booked.
How many free sessions can I take?
There is no cap. The studio is open five days a week during September and you can book as often as there’s availability. Practically, most people get the most out of two to three sessions a week — enough to progress, with recovery in between.
I’ve never been a patient here. Can I still use it?
Yes — book an evaluation with us during September and OxeFit access is included for the rest of the month. The evaluation itself is a regular billed visit; the OxeFit sessions are not.
Do I need to know how to lift?
No. Sessions are self-guided, but your first visit includes orientation, and the on-screen programming walks you through movements with the resistance already set. If you’ve never touched a weight in your life, this is a friendlier place to start than a commercial gym.
Is it safe if I’m hypermobile?
Graded strengthening is central to managing hypermobility and hEDS.10,11 The caution isn’t strength training itself — it’s ranges that run past where you can control them, and loads that jump too fast. Digital resistance makes both of those easier to govern. Tell us you’re hypermobile at orientation and we’ll set it up accordingly.
Will the machine tell me if my injured side is behind?
It will show you a side-to-side comparison, which is real and useful information. What it can’t do is hand you a verdict. Symmetry testing informs a return-to-activity decision; it doesn’t make one, and the published evidence that passing a test battery prevents reinjury is weaker than most marketing suggests.7,8 Bring the number to your clinician.
What happens on October 1?
Regular pricing resumes: $75 per session or $600 for a 10-pack, per our published rates. Unused September sessions don’t roll over — there’s nothing to roll, since nothing was purchased.
Where exactly are you?
415 North Crescent Drive, Suite 130, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 — in the Golden Triangle, roughly five to ten minutes from Century City.
The gains from your care are worth protecting.
September is a clean thirty days to load consistently, watch a real number move, and find out what your body does when the friction is gone. Then decide whether it’s worth keeping.

Loading after fascia care isn’t a Los Angeles idea — it’s how the whole practice works. Our New Orleans flagship, The Fascia Institute, pairs procedural care with the strength and rehab work at FIT Therapeutics, where OxeFit sits alongside AlterG and hands-on fascial therapy. Read more about our founder, Dr. Jacques Courseault, MD, or see how we handle soft-tissue injury on the Gulf Coast.
If loading has always been the part that flares you up, hypermobility may be the reason. Our dedicated Hypermobility & Ehlers-Danlos Clinic and its EDS blog cover graded strengthening for bendy bodies in depth. In Los Angeles, start at our hypermobility & EDS pathway or with FIT GPS genomic screening if recovery has always been the bottleneck.
