About R13 Recovery club

---

Firstly, we would like to welcome you to our website! We are Dale and Matty, co-owners of R13 Recovery Club. 

R13 has been an idea of ours since November 2021, and after extensive property searches all over Greater Manchester, we have landed here in Lees, Oldham. We believe this is what the area lacks; there are so many local people who access gyms and sporting teams and uptake personal health goals within our local community; however, there are no actual facilities we know of to uphold the demand for recovery and mental well-being. Everyone in the sports industry knows that recovery is as important as the physical workout process itself. Working out, specifically weightlifting and body weight exercises, create micro-tears in your muscles. If you don't allow your body adequate time to heal through recovery and rest, the tears grow, and the muscles feel inflamed, swollen, and exhausted; this can lead to decreased performance, exhaustion and chronic pain. Recovery isn't just for the body and the physical benefits but also for the mental well-being benefits. Mental health plays a big part in recovery; when a person gets injured, most are not accustomed to showing weakness. Many try to fight through their feelings or push them aside if they are sad or upset. R13 can help change this culture by letting people know it's ok if they are struggling emotionally. It's not fun, but complex emotions are a normal part of getting injured and just life itself. R13 Recovery Club is here for everyone and will now play a big part in your recovery and mental health well-being. Get booked in with us today using our online booking system. 

Coming from business backgrounds, we are both founders of our own limited companies, utterly different from anything around recovery and wellness. Matt is the founder of My Ability Ltd, which is a domiciliary support service covering all over greater Manchester providing support for children and adults living with a disability. Dale is the founder of D.Lowe Decorators Ltd, this is a painting, decorating and spraying specialists for all commercial, industrial and domestic jobs including interior and exterior. Matt has played professional Rugby League for five years now, and Dale has both played and coached for various sporting teams. This is where our drive to open up the recovery centre has come from, as we know the difference it will make to everyone around us.
