Our Story
Our Story
Island Recovery is a family business started by a 16-year-old footballer from Launceston. Training hard every week, the recovery options available locally were either non-existent, overpriced, or built for people who'd never played a sport in their life.
The idea was simple: build the recovery space he wished existed — premium equipment, private space, at a price that doesn't punish you for using it regularly. Something he could use with his teammates, his family, and his friends without it costing a fortune every time.
That's Island Recovery. Built by an athlete, run by a family, made for anyone who takes their body seriously.

The Studio
Our barrel sauna reaches deep into muscle tissue, accelerating repair and flushing metabolic waste. 50 minutes of heat that actually works.
Cold water immersion at controlled temperatures. Reduces inflammation, sharpens focus, and builds the mental edge that separates good athletes from great ones.
Sequential compression boots that flush lactic acid and restore circulation. The same technology used by elite sports teams worldwide.
Foam rollers, massage guns, resistance bands, and a private shower — everything you need to complete your recovery session in one place.
How We Operate
Started by a footballer who needed it himself. Every decision — the equipment, the pricing, the booking model — was made with real athletes in mind.
This isn't a corporate wellness chain. It's a family business from Launceston. You're supporting local every time you book.
Premium recovery shouldn't cost a week's wages. We built the pricing so you can actually come back regularly — not just for a special occasion.
