Compression therapy (NormaTec)

The compression therapy device (NormaTec) allows easy customisation to your recovery session through its app (Hyperice). Scan the QR code below to download the app in preparation for your visit.

Dynamic air compression increases blood flow to specific areas of the body, this encourages your body to deliver more oxygen and nutrients to those areas. This can help with recovery, pain relief and performance enhancement.

The NormaTec Recovery System gives you the choice of leg or arm compression to deeply massage the body with three different techniques:

  • Pulsing compression movements
  • Gradient levels 
  • Distal release.

You’ll be able to sit back and relax as NormaTec

  • Soothes your aches and pains
  • Reduces water retention and inflammation
  • Flushes lactic acid from your system
  • Accelerates your recovery

…all so you can get back to performing at your best, faster.

Percussive therapy (Theragun)

Percussive therapy devices provide rapid repetitive pressure to give a targeted vibration massage to reduce tension and help you move better. 

Benefits:

  • Increased circulation
  • Pain relief
  • Improved  range of motion
  • Able to precisely target tight areas
  • Activate muscles as part of your warm up pre-workout
  • Soothe and recover fatigued muscles after activity

 

Thermotherapy and Cryotherapy (BodyICE & Infinity)

Utilising Hot or Cold involves targeted methods of temperature change to affect muscle properties.

Thermotherapy uses heat on a targeted area to increase blood flow and soften collagen in the tissues to help relax muscles and reduce joint stiffness.

Cryotherapy is the use of ice and cold modalities to alter blood flow to soothe aches, minimise inflammation and reduce swelling that causes pain.

Feel at home during your recovery session and enjoy use of various foam rollers and trigger point tools to mobilise muscles and joints and ease tension.

This can be used post heat, compression or percussive therapy to compliment their effects, ease tension and improve mobility.
