Recovery Lounge opens doors to public
Recovery Lounge,
New Zealand’s first elite athlete recovery facility for
non-professional athletes, will open its doors for the first
time this morning.
The brand new, one of a kind
facility in Mount Eden’s SportsLab complex caters to both
professional and non-professional athletes that deserve easy
access to quality recovery tools. These tools are designed
to maximise training, assist in proper recovery, help avoid
injury and ultimately get better performance from hard
work.
Managing director and 2006 Commonwealth Games
1500m finalist Paul Hamblyn says recovery is a vital aspect
of training and performance.
“My vision is to
bring the most important elements of recovery to every
athlete wanting the best from their training. It’s not
just All Blacks and Olympians that need to take care of
their bodies after training, it’s everybody,” Mr Hamblyn
says.
Recovery Lounge is the first facility of its
kind to be available to the general public, not just high
performance athletes. The 24-hour facility offers the best
recovery technology used by the professionals, including the
highly coveted Normatec Pro Recovery compression boots,
therapeutic hot spa and cryotherapy pool.
“We’ve
also got free wi-fi, shower facilities, and a hot drink bar
with a communal lounge. You can become a member, drop in on
one-offs, or book as a group,” Hamblyn says
