I met the Team about 2 years ago for a knee and then a shoulder problem. Total success and goodbye pain after needle treatment, various techniques and total devotion to your cause. They do listen and go the extra mile making you come back only if necessary. The service is FANTASTIC, thank you. I since joined the Pilates class which helped a great deal too. You can be certain that you won’t do the wrong movements and hurt yourself under their supervision and guidance. Over the months I have felt much better in my body and my muscles have certainly been reinforced. They tend to push you ….. nicely ….. 🤣. A BIG thank you to Steff, Victoria and Kevin for your help, efficiency and professionalism 👍🏿👍👍🏻 More...

I have been treated by several therapists over the years but Steph has been by far the most effective one I have ever had! She has helped me with both upper and lower body injuries and niggles, some of which have gone away for good (and the rest probably would, too, if I stuck to the exercises better!). Also, I have never tried acupuncture prior to visiting Gosforth Physio but now wouldn’t want any other kind of treatment - could not recommend it (and Steph) more! Excellent service all-round.

Being a bodybuilder I had been struggling with knee pain for over 5 years when lifting, I had been to many physiotherapists in the region, but none of which have cured my knee pain. James at the clinic had customised insoles made for me. It has now been 6 months of wearing them and my knee pain has gradually disappeared, to the point where I actually can' believe how good my knees feel. I highly recommend James and the whole team at the clinic. More...

Really friendly service, very knowledgeable, but for the price paid, the massage was not very good. Please bare in mind I've been to a lot of different sports therapists and shiatsu specialists for this type of treatment, so I've experienced a fair number of different techniques. I imagine judging by the other reviews that the rest of the physio and wellness services provided here are top notch, but unfortunately the massage left a lot to be desired. There was barely any manipulation of the tissue (it wasn't a deep tissue at all) and I left feeling like I'd paid for an expensive back rub that lasted just over 25 minutes (40 minute session) by the time we'd spoken at the beginning and at the end. Can't fault how approachable and understanding the discussion and knowledge was, but I walked out feeling very disappointed. A real shame, as I don't like to leave bad reviews, but I have to be honest. **(Following reply from Gosforth Physio 30/04/22) Thanks for the reply, but what you've put is misleading to anyone reading my review. Firstly, I had actually paid for a 'deep tissue massage', and nowhere had I described my previous treatments with other specialists as aggressive. What these specialists did do was manipulation of the muscle groups and indeed trigger points, effectively enough that upon leaving a session, some relief was felt, so I disagree that their treatments do no work. These pains/trigger points will always return after some time due to the nature of my desk based job and the fact that adopting a perfect posture is not possible. However no trigger points were touched or even manipulated to provide any relief, neither were any of the larger muscles groups, barely any pressure was applied, hence why I described the deep tissue massage that I booked more like a 'back rub'. I had to actually point a solid trigger point out myself. Pilates and other preventative measures (as mentioned) will of course help to maintain better posture and avoid the need for as many massages, but a massage is designed to help relieve tension or pain (if only temporarily), by kneading the muscles/manipulating the joints, but this did not happen in my session. Again, this is an honest experience that I've shared. It's a shame that Gosforth Physio have took the defensive angle, quoting stats and figures, rather than appreciating that sometimes a bad review could actually reflect truth, and the fact that people who aren't happy tend not to speak out.

I couldn't feel more lucky or fortunate to have found Gosforth Physio & Wellness. I contacted the clinic in regards to my feelings of dizziness and loss of balance. Kevin called me first and he was the first person along my journey of discovering what was going on to empathise with me and make me feel like it wasn't all in my head. He then connected me with Kate, the falls and dizzy specialist on his team, who is the real hero of this story. She has been my rock and saviour through this journey, and I'll never be able to thank her enough for all she's done for me. She's taken care of me as if I was one of her long time friends - checking up on me to make sure I'm okay (knowing I'm not from the UK and have no family here) and extending her network to get further advice for me. She concluded that I have Vestibular Migraines and PPPD. She also helped me with my feelings of disassociation and gave me a safe space to be upset when struggling with those feelings. I've already recommended this clinic to a number people and will never stop singing their praises. Thank you for everything. More...

I first started to see Kate Bryce at the clinic a couple of months ago as I had been suffering with vertigo attacks for over a year and was getting no further forward with my local GP so I decided to seek private medical help. Kate has been absolutely amazing. I was blown away with her thorough initial assessment and her genuine interest in getting to the bottom of my issues. The amount of care not only during appointments but afterwards with phone calls/emails to ensure I was managing okay and how my symptoms had been has been really comforting. This has allowed me to get back to day to day life with the knowledge that I can reach out and get help if anything reoccurs. She is incredibly good at what she does and is such a lovely person. If you are suffering from dizziness do not think twice about booking an appointment. These people are the experts and know exactly how to help you. My only regret is not going to see her sooner! Thank you so so much! More...

Excellent! Great session, good intensity and really can feel a difference each week. Would highly recommend any of Kevin's classes. These are not the dry, dull, slow pilates classes you commonly find available. You will definitely notice the difference and the improvements after each class.

He made me realise that with a minimal the investment for a few months I could be pain free.

Mark was a miracle worker when I had the most unbearable back pain with a prolapsed disc. He helped get me back on my feet and mobile again and was absolutely lovely. I've since started doing the Pilates classes that Kevin does - I'm really not a Pilates kind of person but they are actually good fun and really helping with my pain and everything else. I've had some other treatment with Kevin and he's been great. This isn't the sort of physio practice who are just out to take your money - they aim to get you back to normal (or better) as soon as possible.

I have been seeing Kevin on and off for 7 or 8 years with various sporting injuries and cannot rate him highly enough. I often present Kevin with challenging timescales due to sporting events and he is always more than helpful in not only the treatment but advice that he gives me.
What I like most about the treatment I have received is that Kevin is always keen for you to do rehabilitation exercises at home in your own time to reduce the need for additional sessions. There is a high focus on education in terms of body functionality and relating this to everyday life as well as clearly explaining the rehabilitation process. This has not only kept me engaged but also created a keen interest in body mechanics which is driven by Kevin and his passion.
I also attend Pilates within the centre which was brand new to me and I have found this to show noticeable improvements in not only my strength but also running technique.
Going to the Physio is not something that people want to do however I can honestly say that I would always recommend this place based on the service that I have been provided with over a number of years.

I've been having sessions with Kevin for nearly a year now and I can honestly say he is a miracle worker. His approach to dealing with and managing pain is refreshingly logical- figure out the root cause and triggers- don't just treat and mask the symptoms.
Kevin is the 1st medical professional who has taken seriously me when I've told him I was in almost constant pain. I was pretty much at the end of my tether.
I have had chronic back, neck and shoulder pain for 13years (I'm only 30). I have seen my GP umpteen times and been told everything from 'its back pain just deal with it', 'it's all in your head', 'your too young to have back pain', 'it's probably just a pulled muscle' to 'it could be an injury' but it has never been investigated and I have been fobbed off with various painkillers, sleeping pills and then, anti epilepsy pills- those were the last straw- I'm not epileptic so I wasn't going to be taking them!
I went to the clinic on a whim and spoke to Julie on reception, explained my issues and she said that Kevin would be able to help.
My 1st appointment was nearly two hours long and Kevin assessed every inch of my spine, neck, shoulders and pelvis. We slowly managed to figure where the pain was coming from and how to begin to fix it.
With a combination of exercises I had to do at home, dry needling and acupuncture, over a 3 month period I went from feeling like a 80 year old back to feeling like a 30 year old.
After 3 sessions I was able to sleep a whole night without waking up with the pain in my shoulder and arm. This was a major achievement for me.
After 3 months of treatment, I started the Pilates classes and I have been doing them weekly ever since.
I very rarely have any pain now and I can't thank Kevin enough. He has given me a new lease of life.

Posted on behalf of Ian Birch "I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for the expert tuition provided by Kevin and more recently, James. Around 2 years ago and after a series of unexplained back injuries going back many years I had extreme difficult walking for more than 10-15mins. This seriously impacted on both my home and work life and I was in a bad state physically and mentally. With Kevin's expert guidance, I have fully recovered and am now fitter and stronger than I have been since my University days (a long time ago) - I even managed the GNR in a reasonable time. I believe that starting and now continuing Pilates as a routine part of life has significantly minimised the frequency and severity of 'bad back' episodes, consequently saving me £100s in physio bills!"

I came into Gosforth Physio and Wellness one day in acute lower back pain feeling quite emotional unable to stand up straight and immediately felt comfortable and cared for after Kevin and James took the time to identify and explain what was going on with my biomechanics to cause this more chronic issue and intermittent flare ups that I get with my back. I want to say thank you because I left that day in much less pain (dry needling isn't fun but it works) feeling clear on where I need to focus to get to the roots of the issue. Thanks so much.

I went to Gosforth Physio and Wellness to have my shoulder assessed following about a year of niggling pain. James carried a very thorough assessment and by the end of the session I knew the diagnosis, where I was in the healing process and what was needed to be done to fix it. James advised me that for this to work it had to be an active process on both our parts. Due to the chronicity of the problem he advised between 5-7 sessions but that if we weren’t seeing an improvement we would wrap things up or explore other options. 6 sessions on and I am discharged with a much better shoulder and strong home exercise programme. Thanks James for the help! Highly recommend this clinic. More...

I came to Gosforth Physio and Wellness in January with a knee injury and a target of running the Edinburgh Marathon in May. James was brilliant and conducted a very thorough assessment before deciding on dry needling as a course of action. Each session James completed dry needling as required and gave me several different strengthening exercises to work on and we reviewed these at the start of the next session, James would advance these as necessary to improve the problem areas. James was always very thorough as well as friendly and chatty and there was always good banter to break up the dry needling. I would definitely recommend James and Goforth Physio and wouldn't hesitate to use them again if needed. More...

Finally Kevin has given me first diagnosis and his approach to finding the source of pain and not simply fixing the symptoms is incredibly refreshing after months of frustration and pain.
