Recovery Services

Brand Store

At the HPI’s Recovery Area, our primary aim is to accelerate the biological recovery process, helping you bounce back faster from training, competition or injury by targeting the neural, muscular, cellular/metabolic, psychological and hormonal systems.

What we focus on

  • Neural recovery – optimizing nervous system function, reducing overload, enhancing motor control and neural efficiency.
  • Muscular recovery – alleviating micro-trauma, restoring muscle function, improving strength and range of motion.
  • Substrate recovery – supporting cellular repair, mitochondrial health, tissue regeneration and connective-tissue integrity.
  • Psychological & hormonal recovery – reducing stress, managing fatigue, supporting balance of key recovery-hormones and the mind-body link.
  • Trigger-point therapy within recovery – manual techniques and advanced tools (massage guns, targeted intervention) to release muscle knots, relieve tension and improve functional recovery.

 

Services offered in our Recovery Area

  • Compression Therapy – dynamic compression systems to promote circulation, reduce swelling and accelerate muscle recovery.
  • Cryotherapy – cold-exposure sessions to reduce inflammation, improve recovery time and refresh the nervous system.
  • Anti-gravity (AlterG) Treadmill – walk or run at reduced body weight to move earlier, with less impact, accelerating load-progression while protecting tissues.
  • Oxygen Therapy (Mild Hyperbaric Chamber – MHBOT) – increased oxygen at elevated pressure supports tissue repair, reduce fatigue, enhances endurance and offers relief in chronic pain conditions.
  • Massages / Massage Guns – skilled manual therapies and modern tools to release trigger points, improve circulation, ease neural tension and support recovery.
  • Cold Bath / Warm Bath – protocols alternating temperature to stimulate circulation, remove metabolic waste, reduce muscle soreness and support substrate recovery.
  • Sauna / Steam Room – heat-based therapies to facilitate circulation, promote hormonal balance, support recovery of connective tissue, and improve psychological relaxation.

Why these services matter

  • The Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (MHBOT) chamber boosts tissue oxygenation, supports collagen production, stimulates new capillary growth and reduces inflammation—key for faster cellular repair.
  • The AlterG treadmill allows earlier movement with lower joint impact: by reducing body-weight load during walking/running, it enables safe cardiovascular and muscular activation even in recovery phases.
  • Combining temperature therapies (cold bath / warm bath / sauna / steam) and compression supports the circulatory and metabolic systems, helping the body clear metabolic by-products, reduce swelling and restore homeostasis.
  • Manual and advanced trigger-point therapies release neural and muscular tension, assist in normalizing muscle function, and support the neural-muscular system as part of the broader recovery network.

NWU HPI, we believe recovery is not just rest, but an active, multi-system approach. Let us help you recover smarter — faster, safer and stronger.
