Recovery Lab Institute

When you want to optimize your sons or daughters sports training or rehab results, D.C. Athletics and the Recovery Lab Institute is a premier facility in the San Diego. If I could go back in time, the only thing I would change would be getting my kids to their facility sooner.

Hands-down this is one of the best places to go and treat any sports related or athletic injury. Shilo is extremely knowledgeable and every time I go there I feel better and I heal rapidly because of all of their corrective therapy treatments. I would recommend the Recovery Lab Institute for your sports therapy needs.

The Recovery Lab Institute and DC Athletics have met every single one of my needs in rehab and athletic training. The convenience of training in a top-level facility and with a top-level recovery lab is second to none in San Diego. I would highly recommend this facility to any aspiring or professional athletes.

The preparation days leading up to the NFL Combine and Pro Day are extremely vital and, with the help of Recovery Lab Institute, I felt refreshed and injury-free. Shilo was nothing less than superb. With his help I had less body maintenance, and he absolutely outperformed our athletic trainers back at college. I would, without a doubt, recommend him to anyone needing recovery and sports therapy. Shilo was great to work with and I highly recommend his services.

While training in San Diego with D.C. Athletics for the NFL Combine/College Pro Day, Shilo was able to apply unique treatment techniques to reduce my recovery time & soreness, while improving muscle function & efficiency. In combination with stretching, I believe his treatments can cut recovery time in half. Less recovery means more time for quality training. I would highly recommend the Recovery Lab Institute to anyone interested in rapid recovery for optimum performance.

We train hard and in a short period of time to get our players ready for the NFL Combine and their Collegiate Pro Days. Without quick recovery between workout sessions, we couldn’t do it without risking injuries and slowing down the progression of improving our players’ strength, explosiveness, speed and range of motion. Shilo is a critical link in our success keeping our players injury-free throughout their training with his corrective therapy treatments and recovery process, which is one of the most important factors in training your body at such a high level. I highly recommend Shilo and the Recovery Lab Institute.

Shilo helped me get rid of a shoulder pain from an old injury. I thought I would just need to live with it and/or spend lots of time and energy trying to get rid of it. Through targeted corrective therapies, we were able to get rid of it in very little time and I felt results immediately. Now I am back in the gym and don’t have the nagging pain anymore. THANKS!

Shilo did a great job in helping me with a speedy recovery and worked really hard to make sure that happened! Therapy went really well and I feel better than I was ever before the injury. I am now stronger and more flexible! You can’t go wrong with the Recovery Institute.

During my training in San Diego for my college pro day for the NFL draft, I trained at D.C. Athletics and when I became sore after the high intense workouts, Shilo’s treatments always relieved the soreness and I felt fresh the next day. I was able to workout to my full potential everyday due to this and improve my overall performance. I didn’t get this type of sports therapy treatment back at Colorado State. This is treatment I could use every day.

I had to get physical therapy for my back and sciatica leg pain. After no progress at physical therapy places recommended by doctors, I finally went to the Recovery Lab Institute. Within two weeks, not only did I become pain free, I also received guidelines and training instructions on long term pain management. Shilo is an amazing sports therapist, and I liked that he worked with me completely 1-on-1 and with no other clients at the same time. Thanks for your active release and fascial stretch therapy, because of you I can now do my regular activities and weight train now without pain.

The Recovery Lab Institute has been a great asset to my performance, especially in terms of injury prevention, but also facilitating enhanced recovery and regeneration. The Recovery Lab has been able to help me keep my body strong, flexible and pain-free.

Thanks for working with my daughter Jess and helping her get back to her sport and be able to play and compete once again. We feel very blessed to have a great sports therapist and someone who really cared about our daughter’s recovery and get her back at full strength

I was told about Shilo from my nephew who was working with him while preparing for the NFL Draft. I was in a car accident over two years ago and have had continuous pain in my back and shoulder since. I was even told by my doctors that I might have to live with my pain and suffering the rest of my life. After my first treatment with Shilo, I felt so good I went out for a girl’s night out and was wearing high heel shoes the very next day. I haven’t felt this good, nor been able to wear my high heels in over two years. Thank you Shilo and your magic hands!

I’d recommend the Recovery Lab to anyone looking for something that’s really effective and helpful for recovery and making sure your body is ready for peak performance.

My experiences at the Recovery Lab Institute are great. I have had treatments from Shilo for some time now, and find him to be an outstanding practitioner. I felt results immediately with the help from scraping and therapeutic cupping. He is informative, extremely professional and a necessity in my quest to keep my ailing body intact! I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Best full-service sports therapy and performance facility in San Diego! They have manual therapists, dry needling, therapeutic cupping, active release therapy, red light therapy, scrapping, and more. Not to mention the top performance trainers in San Diego.

I've gone to numerous PTs in the past for relief and no one was able to locate the root cause of my injuries and give relief as quickly as the Recovery Lab. Their techniques are unique and unlike what I've had before.  When you see the signed jerseys from NFL players and professional athletes praising them only validates their success in both sports therapy and performance training.  You will not be disappointed, it's totally worth it...Thank you for the tremendous results!

I am more than happy to write a recommendation for the Recovery Lab Institute for their work on my son.

I want to thank Shilo for his amazing therapies and techniques. My son had a high ankle sprain in high school football and was asked to come back too soon to play. In doing so he injured his back badly, which also created sciatic pain down both legs. This back injury also prevented my son from playing baseball because he was unable to swing a bat or throw across his body. We tried chiropractors, acupuncture, and deep tissue massages, but they didn’t work. We then tried rehab at a physical therapy clinic we were referred to by a San Diego Padres doctor. After four months and no positive improvements or pain relief, we tried another physical therapy clinic recommended by a former San Diego Chargers doctor. Again, after three months there were no major improvements and he still had massive pain in his back and down both legs.

Fortunately, we were introduced to the Recovery Lab Institute, and were told that their treatments were quite different than the normal physical therapy clinic, chiropractic, or massage practice. They did a full biomechanical assessment and used multiple therapies and techniques on my son and in only two treatments he was back on the playing field at his high school. The pain went away by 95% for the most part. We continued treatments for another month until it went away completely. The sciatica took the longest to go away completely, but I believe the active release therapy, soft tissue neuromuscular massage and fascial stretch therapy seemed to do the trick.

Thank you for the fast recovery for my son and achieving positive results where others failed to succeed
