Wellness is thriving in Wodonga, thanks to local business Recovery Lab, where helping the community feel better and move better is at the heart of what they do.
Opening in August 2024, Brock Murray and Taylor Donelan say they're impressed by the welcome they have received from the community already.
"We're still fairly new but we have already built a really solid community since opening," they revealed.
But in that short time, the local duo has already made a name for themselves by creating a space where locals can unwind, recharge and take care of both their bodies and minds.
"We love supporting our community not only with their physical health but their mental health day to day," the pair shared.
Focused on helping make recovery a ritual, Recovery Lab's most popular services include infrared saunas, ice baths, compression boots and contrast therapy.
"People love the vibe at Recovery Lab - it's calm, welcoming and not intimidating," Taylor revealed.
Bringing a business of this calibre to Wodonga was an easy decision for the pair, who saw an untapped need for holistic recovery options in the area.
"We saw a gap for proper recovery services in the area and felt the border community would really benefit from it," Brock explained. "There's a huge sporting scene here, plus a lot of busy workers who deal with stress and soreness."
When it comes to what customers love most about the business, Brock and Taylor say it's their personal touch of getting to know each person who steps through the door.
"People appreciate that we take the time to chat, help them get the most out of each session and make recovery easy to understand… Seeing people feel better after a session is always the best part."
"Whether someone's dealing with pain, stress or they're training hard, it's nice knowing we can play a small role in helping them out," Taylor added.
Beyond the treatments themselves, it is the sense of genuine care and connection that keeps locals coming back.
Open seven days a week with flexible hours to suit those with a busy lifestyle, Recovery Lab is located at 79A Thomas Mitchell Drive, Wodonga.
With a plan to continue building a space that people love, Recovery Lab is fast becoming a popular local destination for relaxation, recovery and performance.
