Recovery Room
Head straight to the Elite Fitness Centre Recovery Room post match, after a grueling workout or tough training session. The new facility is equipped with state of the art sport recovery products designed to speed up recovery and lead to better performance.
Why we've introduced our new recovery equipment
IMPROVE BLOOD CIRCULATION
Our technology improves regional blood flow in the target area and helps remove lactic acid and waste products, thus significantly speeding up recovery time.
REDUCE SWELLING AND INFLAMMATION
Compression therapy has been shown to reduce tissue swelling and inflammation whilst boosting oxygen distribution so you can train more and harder.
IMPROVES PAIN THRESHOLD
Pneumatic pulse dynamic compression has been shown to enhance an athletes pain-to-pressure threshold, so you can train your muscles harder for longer.
REDUCE FATIGUE AND INJURY RISK
Intermittent pneumatic compression removes waste products and helps to reduce injury risk and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
TRAIN HARDER AND MORE
Regular compression therapy after training has been shown to significantly increase performance in both sport and everyday fitness.
RECOVER FASTER
Reduce lactic acid build-up and boost oxygen distribution to significantly speed up recovery times.
Equipment Specifications
Leg Recovery System
The dynamic compression system with boots, have various chambers which inflate and deflate with air pumped by the compressor such that the chamber of the garment applies direct pressure to the muscle area shown in the diagrams below. The compression temporarily restricts blood circulation to the area and upon release, nutrient-rich blood rushes through the muscle tissue. The compression technique improves blood circulation, promotes lymphatic fluid movement, helps remove lactic acid, reduces inflammation, soreness, stiffness and improves flexibility thus stimulating recovery and enhancing performance. The system has been designed around the athlete's performance and their recovery, based on scientific studies.
Theragun Massage Gun
This device provides a powerful deep muscle treatment to help ease discomfort, soothe tightness and tension and recover faster. The key to any deep muscle treatment is a higher amplitude – and these devices stand apart with a 16mm amplitude that reaches 60% deeper into muscle than average massagers. Most low-amplitude, high-speed massagers rapidly vibrate and desensitize the skin. These devices travel 60% deeper, then actually come off of the surface of the skin at precisely 40 times per second, targeting a localised area without the brain acclimating to the stimulation.
