Team GB Olympic rower Alex Partridge has helped officially unveil Nuffield Health's new-look health and wellbeing centre in Covent Garden, London, following a £2.5m overhaul.
Covent Garden Fitness and Wellbeing Centre has undergone a two-phase refurbishment, the second of which comprised a £500,000 transformation of the venue's wet facilities.
The centre now offers a bespoke hydrotherapy and spa area with sauna and steamroom, with visitors able to benefit from hydrotherapy facilities in the 20m swimming pool area.
Work on the £2m first phase of the renovation was completed in December 2010, with a full overhaul of the branding and the construction of a new health clinic.
Three new-look studios; upgraded changing facilities; and a new 100-station gym, which was predominantly supplied by Life Fitness, has also formed part of the overall scheme.
ViPR; TRX; and Power Plate also supplied equipment to the gym at Covent Garden Fitness and Wellbeing Centre.
Partridge said: "The integrated health experience that Nuffield Health Covent Garden offers is really impressive, focusing not just on one aspect of fitness but everything from nutrition to sport injury prevention and rehabilitation."
Adam Hanover, general manager of the facility, added: "The £2.5m investment we have made in new facilities gives us a flagship fitness and wellbeing centre to be proud of."
