Metawell We do health. We do wellness. We do recovery.

Isometric training has long been a staple in Biokinetics…and for good reason.

By activating muscles without movement, we create strength, joint stability, and neuromuscular control in a safe, low-load environment. It’s especially valuable in early-phase rehab, pain management and when precision matters more than power.

In her 2011 study, “The effect of short-term isometric handgrip training on blood pressure in middle-aged females,” Jolene Mortimer demonstrated that even minimal isometric input can shift cardiovascular markers - showing just how much happens beneath the surface.

Stillness, when intentional, is anything but passive.
We use it on purpose, and with purpose.

As the sun rises, so do you.

Join us for a guided breathwork journey set to a live DJ set, followed by Normatec leg compression, sauna, ice baths and coffee - the ultimate morning reset for your body and mind.

This is more than recovery.
It’s rhythm, science, and stillness - all in one morning.

🕕 Date: 24 October 2025
📍 Location: Metawell Recovery Lounge, Illovo

🔥 BROLATES LAUNCH SPECIAL – BECAUSE REAL BROS STRETCH TOGETHER 🔥
Boys, we get it. Your gym bro is basically family. You spot each other, push each other, and talk nonsense between sets—but have you ever stretched together?
It’s time to level up the bromance—on the reformer.

💪 BRO PACKAGES – BECAUSE GAINS NEED MOBILITY 💪
✔️ 2-on-1 Mat & Reformer Combo (60 min) – R500 (R250 pp)
(Save R100 each – more money for post-workout chow)
✔️ Express Sports Massage (30 min) – R300
(Because your traps deserve better)
*💥 The “Bro Bundle” – R550 per bro*
(One Brolates session + one Express Sports Massage – save R200 and actually be able to move the next day)

*Why You Need This in Your Life:*
✔️ Mobility = better lifts, faster runs, fewer injuries
✔️ Core strength = actual power, not just aesthetics
✔️ Recovery = being able to train harder, not just hobble around
✔️ Bromance = quality time that isn’t just gym selfies

Stillness meets Sandton skyline. This morning’s recovery started 8 floors above the noise: where the light hits just right and the cold hits even better.

🧊 R100 gets you in the ice.
No contracts. No catch.

Just skyline views, precision recovery and a cold that clears more than just your muscles.
It’s exclusive. But it’s for everyone. (For the ones carrying a little too much, pushing a little too hard or quietly overdue for a pause).

Come on up - we’re open whenever the gym is. Book ahead or walk in.
You’ll leave clearer than you arrived.

We’re different!

Virtual Wellness is built on the concept of balance. When we think about health; diet and exercise are typically the first things that come to mind. It is important to maintain a healthy balance between your mind, body and soul by nurturing your whole self, including your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs.
