Portchester resident Vikki had been running VP Sports Therapy from her home for three years before relocating to London Road and rebranding.

The 26-year-old said: ‘After a total rebrand during the first lockdown I decided to move my business to a treatment room based in North End, partly due to the pandemic.

‘After a successful eight months operating as The Recovery Room in North End, I could see that my business was expanding quicker than I ever imagined and knew I needed to take the next step and therefore create my very own clinic.

‘I feel completely overwhelmed and grateful to have opened my first clinic. I couldn’t have done it without all of the hard work that the other therapists Georgia and Jade have put in and the continuous support of our lovely patients.

The clinic also offers holistic massages including hot stones, deep tissue, Swedish, pregnancy and Indian head massage, performed by a trained massage therapist.

Vikki added: ‘People can expect a comfortable, friendly and personal experience at The Recovery Room.
