Therapy - Ways to recover
Magnesium Pools - Hot and Cold Immersion Therapy
Our wet therapy consists of four pools, 2 x Ice Magnesium pools and 2 x hydrotherapy magnesium pools. These are designed for anyone with sporting/work injuries, rehabilitation, and day to day pain management. By systematically moving from a cold water pool to a hot water pool, blood flow increases which stimulates circulation. As this occurs muscles flush out inflammation mediators, accelerating the healing process and decreasing the long term effects of DOMS.

At Sports Recovery Centres Australia, hot and cold plunge pools create the ultimate conditioning, recovery and rehabilitation environment. Together with the magic mineral Magnesium, we provide you with the complete recovery experience.
Magnesium Pool Cleaning:
We work hard to ensure the right magnesium concentration is in our four magnesium pools.
We drain and refill the pools, rotating weekly to keep the water fresh and the magnesium concentration to the proper levels.
Our magnesium pool pumps and chlorinators run 18 hours daily, constantly filtering water to keep the pools clean.
Infrared Sauna
Our infrared sauna sessions are 30 minutes long, in a secluded room infused with essential oils, sound systems and salt lamps, creating a perfect environment to wind down and really enhance relaxation and recovery.
In terms of health benefits; while the hot air from a traditional steam sauna creates surface sweat, the gentle heat from infrared saunas raises the core body temperature - delivering a much deeper sweat, more intensive detoxification process and increased health benefits.

Hyperbaric Chamber
This is pure oxygen under pressure, allowing the body to get the oxygen it needs to create ATP for energy and flush out the lactic acid that causes muscle fatigue.
ATP is an energy carrying molecule found in our body cells. ATP is consumed everyday in our body all the time in daily living activities without us evening knowing, for energy processes including ion transport, muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, substrate phosphorylation, and chemical synthesis. These processes, as well as others, create a high demand for ATP.
The elevated oxygen levels help athletes increase performance and recover more quickly after a work the oxygen to build up and repair damaged blood vessels, as well as triggering collagen growth, which leads to healing. The increase in pressure can also reduce swelling, which in turn, increases blood flow and circulation.

Advanced Remedial Massage Therapy
Normatec Compression Therapy
Our dry lounge consists of reclining lounges, and Normatec Leg, Hips/Back, and Arms/Shoulder compression sleeves. Similar to a massage, Normatec compression therapy is suitable to everyone as it applies pressure on the muscles. This releases fluid retention, alleviates inflammation and lactic acid, increases blood flow, and reduces pain and soreness.
After exercise or after a long day at work either standing or sitting all day, blood tends to pool or collect in the veins. This occurs by the blood in our blood vessels expanding during prolonged exercise or a long time with our body in one position, making it difficult for it to return to the heart from the legs causing swelling and soreness.
By increasing the blood flow, the dynamic compression ensures that fluids leave the limbs after workouts. The system is also designed with distal release, which prevents back flow.
Studies show it can help relieve muscle aches and pain and increase circulation resulting in increased flexibility and range of motion, injury prevention, and accelerated recovery time. Our top of the range Compression Recovery Area will have you performing at optimum athletic potential.

Cryotherapy
Localized Cryotherapy, “Spot Treatments”, are used to reduce pain, inflammation and swelling in targeted areas .Cryotherapy treatments promote quick muscle repair, treats tissue damage, alleviates muscle tension and is a natural performance enhancer.
Cryotherapy is a form of cold therapy which exposes the body to temperatures of approx. -120 degrees Celsius. Cryotherapy produces a powerful immune system response. It causes the body to increase the production of white blood cells, which not only helps in reducing inflammation but aids in boosting the overall immune system.
It works by reducing blood flow to a particular area, which can significantly reduce inflammation and swelling that causes pain, especially around a joint or a tendon. Athletes are using cryotherapy to aid recovery and improve their athletic performance during the game.
Cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen meaning that you don’t get Wet during your treatment the air is dry.

A therapeutic dry sauna consisting of a padded vibrating bed, & dry heat which circulates through the unit over and under the bed.this stimulates exercise without putting stress on the body,
The benefits include reduced muscle tension and increased flexibility and joint movement, improved skin tone and circulation.
Cryo Facials (Frotox)
The cryo facial uses a controlled beam of vaporised liquid nitrogen to freeze the skin on the face, scalp, and neck area. it promises to tighten the skin, fill in fine lines, and reduce wrinkles.
During the procedure , liquid nitrogen is sprayed on the face skin to cool the skin surface and temperature, which causes immediate vasoconstriction ( or tightening ) of the vessels, this tightening is your skins natural reaction to maintaining body heat, which encourages collagen regrowth and cell repair.
As we age, the production of collagen diminishes, lower levels of collagen result in fine lines and wrinkles so the cryo-therapy machine helps to encourage the regrowth of your collagen for better skin.
Cryo Facial
Suitable for men and Women who wish to look younger, feel better and restore radiance. This treatment is also good for skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis and acne.
