The Challenge

As part of their commitment to providing premier amenities for their members, The Arbutus Club recognized the increasing importance of recovery within the health, wellness and fitness landscape. With recovery solutions becoming a staple rather than a luxury among highly reputable and wellness-focused private clubs, The Arbutus Club wanted to implement world class recovery products. The challenge was finding products that are intuitive, effective, and aligned with the high standards expected at a premium facility—all while ensuring staff could confidently support its integration and member usage.

The Solution

360 Athletics partnered with The Arbutus Club to support and deliver a recovery experience centered around simplicity, performance, and member accessibility. The club received 8 Normatec Full Body dynamic air compression packages, which includes the Normatec Legs, Arms and Hips attachments which allows the club to have several different recovery spaces located on the property. Through educational support from 360 Athletics, all fitness and wellness staff are empowered to assist members with proper usage and recovery techniques to contribute to their overall fitness and recovery journey.

The Result

The Normatec dynamic air compression recovery products are now a core offering at several different areas at The Arbutus Club, giving members easy access to professional-grade recovery solutions as part of their daily routine. Staff confidence and engagement have increased, creating a more supportive and educated environment for members exploring recovery tools. The addition of Normatec’s has elevated the overall member experience and solidified The Arbutus Club’s position as a premium private club when it comes to innovation and recovery.
