4-Step System

Our unique 4 Step System is designed to not only help you improve pain but get you long lasting results, and improve your health.Ā Ā 

1
Assess

We listen and take a detailed history of your pain/problem and how it is affecting your life. Then we assess using simple movement tests and screens, before explaining clearly your likely diagnosis and proposed step-by-step treatment plan of exactly what needs to be done to get you better.

2
Mobilise
We begin treatment. This usually involves a combination of hands-on techniques including Acupuncture if appropriate to help improve joint stiffness, decrease pain and improve muscle and nerve tension. We begin to build your exercise rehab programme so that it is manageableĀ and not overwhelming.
3
Strengthen
Once pain has begun to settle and we are moving in the right direction the emphasis turns to helping you build the necessary strength and resilience of muscles and joints, in order to get those long-lasting results. We work with you 1:1 in our studio or dedicated rehab space and/or start you in our group Pilates classes.
4
Optimise

Now you are pain free (or well on your way) and feeling confident, we show you how to build on these results. Many of our clients choose to start our Physio Led Pilates, classes which are an excellent way to continue to improve and stay consistent with your exercises going forward.

Experts who understandā€¦

At our purpose-built physiotherapy clinic in Ponteland, JL PhysioFit provide you with an expert service focused on establishing the root cause of your problem; we donā€™t simply treat ā€˜where it hurtsā€™.

Following the initial detailed assessment we create a specific treatment plan that works for you. We like to avoid jargon and explain things clearly; itā€™s your body after all, so itā€™s good for you to really understand its workings.
We believe that physiotherapy should not be seen as a passive process; rather a team effort with the common goal of restoring and improving your health, helping you get back to your best.

Michael helped me with leg pain leading up to my first half marathon. I ended up running the whole distance with no pain and was able to enjoy the experience by taking his advice and getting treatment the week before the big run. Would recommend to anyone.

Started treatment in September 2022 after hospital appointments with consultant and scans on my left knee. I booked to see Michael as I was having major pain/grinding noise and unable to do exercise or even walk up/down the stairs properly. He assessed my mobility and strength and developed a tailored, gradual rehab program that has helped me to build strength and confidence in my knee as well as helping me slowly get back into exercising. It's made a vast difference working with Michael as I'm not an easy person to work with and always push myself too far. All my exercises were shared via email and accessible via an app. Now I'm exercising 5 times a week, spinning, strength, cardio, HIIT, rowing and running (I can finally use my home gym). Thank you for your patience and understanding my needs. Would highly recommend Michael and JL PhysioFit.

Good team that listen to what clients have to say before doing each Pilates class, so if you have a niggle they work with it. Exercises are testing but doable, even if at the time you are not sure about it, and if you can't then they come up with a variation for you to do. Friendly classes and staff.
