Who We Are

JL PhysioFit is a purpose-built physiotherapy clinic in Ponteland, just outside Newcastle. We offer a range of services to help people who are struggling with not only injuries and pain, but those wanting to improve their health so they can enjoy life more. Please see our full list of services below.

Physiotherapy

Our chartered physiotherapists offer expert assessment, diagnosis and hands-on treatment for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions including neck pain, back pain, headaches, shoulder pain, nerve pain and many more.

Pilates

We offer a professional physio-led Pilates service including live classes, online zoom classes and 1:1 private tuition. Class sizes are kept small to ensure you get the attention you deserve with all classes being carried out from our purpose built PhysioFit studio in Ponteland.

PhysioFit Rehab Programmes

PhysioFit rehab programmes are designed and carried out by our chartered physiotherapists and include a mixture of ‘hands on physio’ in the treatment room along with one to one training in the studio.

Sports Massage

We provide an expert sports massage service to help relieve stress, prevent niggles and improve muscle function. This service is ideal for people with postural related aches and pains as well as the sporting population and weekend warriors.

TPI Golf Screening

Qualified through the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI), our golf screening service involves a full body screen to help golfers of all abilities identify physical restrictions that may be causing pain as well as affecting the efficiency of their golf swing.

Ultrasound Diagnostic Scans & Injections

Whilst we have a strong belief that most problems can be conservatively managed with physiotherapy, occasionally it is necessary to have a deeper look using a non-invasive ultrasound scan.

Physio linked to additional stretches/exercises and Pilates at JL Physiofit have improved my core strength and flexibility.

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.
