Equipment
Recovery
Recovery Room runs its sports physiotherapy clinic inside Compound, so you don't have to leave the building for treatment. Compound members pay $15 for an ACC appointment.
There's a sauna in each changing room, and access is included with every Compound membership. Sessions are 30 minutes, hold two people and are booked in the Compound app during staffed hours.
