Resistance Training Indoors

In The Gym

Resistance training is a central component of not only rehabilitation and high performance, but of every day life. 


People with higher measured muscle strength decrease   risk of osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, dementia, cardiac, and vascular diseases. 


Structural integrity and stability are dependent on  ideal  postural  alignment,  neurological  efficiency ,  and  sound  musculoskeletal  function.  Applying  resistance  throughout  the  entire  range  of  movement promotes   quality  and  control  of all  available movement.


A purposely designed resistance training program is  central  to  maintaining a healthy body and mind throughout your  entire life.

Utilising outdoor equipment from fences and railings to steps and park equipment can turn your local surrounds into a fresh air gymnasium. 


For those with a passion for running we also offer  run  coaching  to improve technique,  performance,   and reduce post  training  soreness  and  injury  risk.


A  natural environment, reduces stress and promotes  natural  endorphins  improving mental  health  and immune  function.

Hydrotherapy/Pool Therapy

Water Therapies

Water based therapy removes the compressive load of your body weight allowing your joints to perform  desired  movements  and  tasks  without  exacerbating  symptoms  like  pain  and  swelling. 


It also improves the quality of movement  by  adding  the  resistance of water broadening  its  applications  from  rehab  right  through  to  specific  high  performance  conditioning. 


From  orthopaedic  and cardiac cases  to  elite  sprinters  and  combat  athletes, hydrotherapy  remains  one  of  the  most  effective  treatment  &  conditioning  modalities  we  know.

Proprioception Training

Balance Exercises

The concept of proprioception (balance) training is to have  an  awareness  of  body  position  in  space  and  the  relative  position  of  your  joints  and  limbs.


Equipment like the BOSU   and  wobble  board  challenge  the  feedback  loops  which  exist  between   your  central  nervous  system and  the  nerve  end  organs (proprioceptors)  of  your  limbs.  By  increasing  the  efficiency  of  this  loop  you  can strengthen  &  heal injured areas like ankles and  knees,  regaining  stability,  mobility,  &  performance.


The  feedback loop between  your central nervous system and  muscluloskeletal  structures  involves  thousands  of  messages  per  second  adjusting  and  re-adjusting  firing  sequences  to  improve  functional  efficiency  in  every  possible  environmental  permutation.

These  variables  must  be  explored  by  training  variation.  

Physical  and  mental  rehearsal are also vital.


Proprioceptive  training improves not only your balance, but your efficiency  and  therefore  overall strength and stability.  It  is  not  only  rehab,  but  high  performance  and  quality  of  life.


Posture Correction Therapy

Gait Correction

Walking  and  running,  along  with  sitting,  standing, and  sleeping  are  among  the  everyday  activities most  of  us  do  poorly  which  decrease  our  efficency  and  increase  unnecessary  effort,  fatigue  and  pain  in  this  life.  

Just  walking  differently  can  decrease  your  pain  and  fatigue,  while  increasing  your  ”energy  levels” , productivity,  and  performance.

From video gait analysis to exercise prescription and programming, your posture and gait can be improved within  a  matter  of  weeks  and  continued  for  the  rest  of  your  life,  continually  adjusting  and  honing  so  you  can  get  the  most  out  of even the  simple everyday  activities  in  this  life.

Pain Management

It Don't Half Hurt!

Pain  is  not  an  annoyance  to  be  be  masked  pharmaceutically  until  it  is  too  late  late  to  heal  the  cause.

It  is  a  physiological  alarm  bell  designed  to  gain  your  attention  and  change  your  behaviour  away  from  the  cause  of  the  pain  allowing  your  body  to  heal


Many  people  ignore  the  warning  sings  or  “niggles”  for  years  or  even  decades  only  to  be  forced  to  have  surgery  and/or  surrender  the  activities  that  gave  them  joy  in  this  life.  


Our  clients  have  completed  successful  pain management for every body part including feet, hands, knees, hips , fingers, wrists,  shoulders, and of  course,   back pain.

Back pain, particularly lower back pain, is so  often  unnecessary. 


Whether  through  direct traumatic injury  or  poor  lifestyle &  posture, all  the  contributing  factors  can  be  addressed  and  decreased ultimately  decreasing  your  pain  and  dependence on  drugs  to   mask  that pain.

Ka HUNA THERAPY

A HEALING SYSTEM

 Ka Huna literally translated means the sacred, or the secret. It also pertains to royalty. 

The ancient polynesians developed a shamanic system of ministering healing to their fellow man by recognising their connection to themselves, each other, and the planet upon which they rely for life itself. They were so cognitively developed that they were able to map the Pacific Ocean using nothing more than stick maps on the beach and their own spacial awareness knowing where they were on the ocean in any conditions without any land mass references. They may not have developed our level of technology but in most ways they were far more cognitively and neurologically developed than we are.

KaHuna, though referred to as the Rolls Royce of massage, is an holistic approach to gaining neurological and vascular (energy) flow. The long flowing techniques are stimulating, relaxing, and draining of the lymph.

KaHuna can be delivered as floor technique, bone and joint therapy, and/or the popular oil massage. 

We use MCT and standard coconut oil but this can be varied according to individual sensitivities and preferences.

Kahuna sessions typically last 90-120 minutes at a cost of $150.

FAQ'S

Can I claim my sessions ?

If you have a diagnosed medical issue or injury for which exercise is a prescribed management modality, you may be eligible to claim your sessions through your health insurance, depending on our level of cover. We also see NDIS clients who are assessed on an individual basis. 

How long will I have to commit to a program with Recovery?

Results will vary depending on the issue you have or the goal you desire. Our results are generally based on a minimum 3 to 6 month program. At the end of this period, and with our guidance, you will decide to either continue your program indefinitely (as most of our clients do), set up an intermittent training schedule (that is, a return to us every 3 to 6 months for a refresher or additional rehab/training work), or to finish your program and use what you have learned from us to maintain your own regime.

What if I miss a session?

No problem. All you need to do is make sure you communicate with us beforehand so that someone else can be fitted into that time slot. You can always re-schedule.
