Repose Space
BEST FOR HEALTH OPTIMISATION
This Kensington clinic is a one-stop shop to overhaul your wellbeing. Sign up for an electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) session, which uses electrical currents to heighten the contractions in your muscles to supercharge your workout – a 20-minute session is equivalent to 90 minutes in the gym. When it comes to wellness, kickstart muscle recovery in a cryotherapy chamber or melt away tension in the infrared sauna. For those recovering from an injury or training for an event, check out the photobiomodulation bed, a sunbed-style device that stimulates ATP production to enhance cell renewal and decrease inflammation. You’ll also find some of the capital’s top practitioners offering facials, massage and osteopathy – no stone is left unturned.
