Momentum Sports Injury Clinic

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant results from John at Momentum. Would highly recommend checking this place out. Very professional service. Thanks again!!!

Fantastic experience: I visited Momentum for a road bike fit with John Dennis, and I can't recommend it highly enough! I have had years of injuries and niggles due to incorrect positioning/frame size and couldn't imagine riding endurance miles like I used to, from both a mental and comfort point of view (pain and thinking about the never ending tweaks I could make consumed my thoughts on the bike and I had fallen out of love with it). I did a 200km event 2 weeks after my fit and it's such a joy to be riding sustainably and carefree in the moment again (and my bike handling confidence has massively improved)! John was so excellent, it felt very tailored and he really took the time to listen to understand the rider as an individual (previous injuries, posture, activities outside cycling, etc) and apply this. For the renewed love of cycling, and comfort off the bike also, that this bike fit has brought me it's just invaluable. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Jack Dent is a rehab wizard. I had ACL surgery in May 2024 and he has me back to competitive sport within a year. Very happy with the service and would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Carl was great and worked with me over several sessions to get me moving again after an injury. Impressive gym facilities onsite too!

Fantastic experience: After many years of whinging about my old lady knees and various niggles and pain and frustration I eventually booked up with Momentum for one of their running assessments. It is a bit of an investment but I really wanted the insight and expertise and to try and fix whatever was going on. The appointment was close on two hours long, started with a consultation based around a form I completed. I explained it may have been more mobility / flexibility than strength but Kate explained the assessment and how personalised the report and programme were. The assessment is beyond thorough, I found it really insightful that the areas which I often feel a niggle and things were all worked. The first part is biomechanic movements, assessing your left and right side separately. After assessing hip, knee, ankle and feet I had the gait analysis. This isn’t like where the sports shop get you to squat and run then hook you up with some new runners lol this was on a treadmill with a belt around my waist and the device at the base of my back was connected to the iPad. I simply ran and the device measures and scores my running the balance and stability, the symmetry and also the impact. After this was the biomechanical footscan where I ran over a small pad on the floor and the computer created images of my feet. All the way through Kate discussed the findings and explained things to me and it was again reassuring that from what I’ve felt and experienced I could recognise what she was talking about and also that all three components backed each other up and helped Kate. A few days after this my 18 page report arrived along with the strength program designed for me . The report was all of the findings and notes of the assessments - if you are a data geek you will love it, I’m also going to show it to any new coach or PT I get so they understand my current challenges. The exercises in my programme look deceivingly easy but again after my first session through them I could tell they were working the right things and the fact they were so hard to do likely means it’s where I need to improve. I’m 3/4 weeks post assessment and the program is doing well I’m about to book in for a review. Obviously with lots of this stuff it will take time to improve and then build on that, so I can’t at this point say everything is fixed but the thorough nature of the report, the programme with videos and clear instructions and the fact I know what I’m working on and the reason why make me able to recommend Momentum and their services highly. Some of the components of the running assessment are available separately. The running assessment specifically is done by a Sports Rehabilitation person but they also have physios and strength and conditioning coaches. I’m looking forward to the journey and my next review to see the improvements then of course the knock on effect of those in my running and strength work .

Fantastic experience: I can’t stress enough how good the guys at Momentum are. I have been dealing with a tricky sports specific injury and the team have listened in depth and helped me understand and build a plan for a way forward. Big shout outs to John, Carl and Abbie!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Momentum too highly. Momentum is a multidisciplinary team of qualified, experienced professionals who will take good care of you and bring out your best - whatever your needs and situation. Rather than a gym with bleeping machines and flashing lights this is a place to get personal attention to work through a programme to meet your needs and support your personal objectives. In my case I’m recently retired and want to increase strength, improve balance and improve my aerobic fitness to get the most out of my “third age” years. The gym carefully assesses you in a detailed meeting and prepares a personal programme which is changed monthly ( so you don’t get bored and to accommodate changing objectives). You are never left alone (unless you want to be) and this ensures that all exercises are done safely and efficiently. Should you have an injury the excellent in-house physiotherapy team are on hand to treat you and liaise with your coach to ensure that your gym work supports your recovery. If you are an athlete of any level Momentum are there to help you work more efficiently to maximise your performance. I used to hate gyms. I love Momentum and have been a satisfied user for more than 5 years. Oh, and booking sessions online and parking at the gym are dead easy.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic bikefit. A 'gamechanger' in terms of fit and feel on the bike. A must for anyone considering a bike fit. Simon Pattison

Fantastic experience: I had 3 physio sessions for a leg injury following an ultra trail run. Keen to recover as soon as possible, I booked an appointment with Momentum. My physio, Kate has been fantastic in providing me with detailed plans and tuition ensuring my technique was correct for the physio and strength training exercises. Within around 3 months I have improved and have just followed the back to running programme without any leg pain. I’m now feeling much more positive for my future running career and will continue the strength training.

Fantastic experience: I can’t thank Kate at Momentum Sports Injury Clinic enough for her incredible support and expertise! After struggling with a recurring tibial tear that sidelined me for far too long, I finally found someone who truly understood the issue and guided me to recovery. her approach was thorough, professional, and tailored to my needs, helping me not only heal but also rebuild my strength. Thanks to her, I’m back to marathon training – something I hadn’t thought possible just a few months ago

Fantastic experience: I went to Momentum to buy a set of road cycling shoes. I ended up buying mtb shoes as well and also getting a bike fit. The setup is excellent and far more advanced than anything else I have come across before. Jon Dennis is very knowledgeable as well as being a nice guy who is really interesting to talk to. I really can’t say enough about this place and the people working there. 10/10 from me.

Fantastic experience: Went for a bike fit with John, the location is excellent and all the facilities are of a very high standard. Excellent advice and setup given by John. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: In buying a new bicycle I was advised to have a bike fit to ensure I got the correct size, which seemed a sensible suggestion. I searched online for bike fits and settled on Momentum, a decision I never regretted. Whilst cheaper fits are to be found, I would be surprised if they came with the same depth of honesty, experience, knowledge, understanding and patience that I had with Momentum. From my experience, I strongly advise giving them a try

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Had an issue with my foot prior to the GNR and Tony helped me get to the start line. Recommend to anyone looking to improve their performance or return from injury.

Fantastic experience: A great physiotherapy clinic ! A lot of thought and work put in by Kate for injury specific rehab exercises - would recommend :)

Fantastic experience: Great physio. Found the problem straight away and told me how to resolve it. Would definitely recommend..

Fantastic experience: Friendly place

Fantastic experience: Superb set-up, service and levels of expertise. Saw Carl Bell for painful left hip from track season and he was meticulous in his identification of the source of the problem and then extremely client-centred in his suggestion of ongoing management. Can’t find enough superlatives. Thank you ever so much.

Fantastic experience: Recommend to me by my coach (based in Eastbourne) I decided to take the trip up to Newcastle for both a running assessment with Carl and a bike fit with John. Firstly, the facilities are top notch, great environment and atmosphere from the gym point of view for people of all ages and levels to be able to get fit and strong with coaches that are engaged and friendly. I have had issues with my lower back when riding my TT bike and also I knew my running technique was not the best. The assessment with Carl was really thorough and every muscle group was broken down and assessed, the follow up report again was very thorough, clear and put in terms that I could understand. The strength exercises I was given are now setup on an app that I can access and watch back to make sure I’m getting the right technique. What I was most impressed with was that he didn’t look for quick fixes that wouldn’t solve the long term problem but educated me and gave me ownership to know how to be able to help myself. I then saw John for a bike fit, the technology used is state of the art and he straight away could see that my figures were not in the parameters they should be and didn’t even correlate to left to right balance. My position was changed (with great patience on his behalf as my front end is a pain in the … to change the stack on). And he gave me strategies for my technique that I can now work on. All in all a very good experience and I hope to revisit in the near future to check up on how I’m progressing. 100% worth the travel. Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: After booking a last minute appointment to assess a calf issue 5 days prior to my main event for the year, I was very happy with the thorough assessment and the calm reassurance that taking part was still feasible. The exercise programme provided meant that my calf issue was under control before race day, and despite some minor discomfort in the early stages, I was able to stick to my plan to walk the event for a 6th completion of the Lakeland 100. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Momentum to anyone looking to book a physio appointment.

Fantastic experience: I have been taken my son to Momentum for a few months now for Physio sessions with Carl. He has a programme to follow that is helping him so much with his sporting schedule and has now decided to have some strength and conditioning coaching to help elevate his performance. Wonderful clinic. Would absolutely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Friendly, professional and very well equipped gym. Great energy in the gym where our kid's physio showed them an excellent range of exercises. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Kate put me through my paces and assessed my running technique, identified some areas to work on, and provided exercises via a very good portal to add strength where it is needed. Very happy with the assessment and process, now over to me to do the exercises plan!

Fantastic experience: Gill’s story I was recommended to see Carl by a friend at my local gym for an ongoing problem with my hip/thigh. I had been suffering with pain when walking to the point that I was limping around and unable to lie on my left side. I wasn’t sure what the problem was or why it had occurred, but it was starting to interfere with my daily activities. From my first session with Carl I was immediately reassured that the problem could be fixed and I was suffering from gluteal tendinopathy, but this wasn’t going to be a quick fix! Carl made me feel totally at ease as he is so friendly and patient. Over the following weeks I saw Carl on a regular basis and was given various programmes to follow to strengthen the tendon. I have followed these exercises religiously, sometimes suffering some setbacks but being reassured that I was indeed making good progress. I am now pleased to say my problem has been sorted and will now follow a maintenance programme to prevent the problem from reoccurring (fingers well and truly crossed) I would not hesitate to recommend Carl to a friend who may be suffering from any exercise related injury. I feel by having the use of the gym and equipment is an added bonus as other physios only suggest giving you a plan online, which is often difficult to follow, however in my opinion, practical one to one sessions being demonstrated are much easier to follow. So a big Thank You to Carl and the team from Gill Hall

Fantastic experience: Expert help with a friendly, fun, atmosphere in a great location. I'm on a semi-private programme, which gets me a planned workout schedule that changes monthly and is targeted very well for my needs. Group based training looks great too!

Fantastic experience: Customer service, facilities and standard of treatment are all top notch!

Fantastic experience: I happily recommend Momentum to any injured runners. I went to see them after not getting very good results with other physios for a very stubborn case of Peroneal Tendonitis, that wouldn't clear up and had reached the point I was struggling to walk pain free. My initial appointment with Kate was very thorough, where she identified the root cause of the problem, and over the following weeks, prescribed a progressive programme to follow- 6 weeks later I was totally pain free and able to return to training. Not only has Kate addressed this injury, but she has also equipped me with a much better S&C programme that will address my weaknesses, that will help make me a better runner in the long term. If are you struggling with a running injury, I highly recommend seeing Kate/the team at momentum!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic deep tissue massage by Kate! Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Carl at Momentum and would recommend him highly .He is professional..thorough..and a nice guy!Better still he was able toget to grips with my specific problems and has helped my mobility enormously. All of the staff are excellent...and there is a car park!

Fantastic experience: Enjoyed their endurance sessions which are well thought out and structured- and is a different challenge every week!

Fantastic experience: Excellent bike fit with John Dennis - detailed, in-depth and thorough - based on John’s exceptional expertise and experience.

Fantastic experience: Time and money very well spent - had a TT bike fit. John is very professional and identified key things that I can do to improve my TT position and pedalling efficiency. He also noted the restrictions from a knee injuries and recommended appropriate exercises to do to improve my mobility.

Fantastic experience: Visited Momentum for a bike fit and saddle pressure mapping with Fin after suddenly beginning to suffer saddle discomfort after years of riding. Really positive experience and got the result I wanted: no more pain with the bonus of a dialled in position for efficiency. The tech used is great to see live results based on changes, but the stand out feature in my case was the pressure mapping linked to being able to try saddles back to back. Tried 6 in total from different brands and with Fin’s experience found one that was a revelation. Left the appointment a with said new saddle and have since spent hours in the saddle with 0 problems. As a final comment I’d say I was hesitant based on the price, however after wasting time and money going down my own rabbit hole I’m glad I bit the bullet and would tell others to save themselves some time and get the expert advice sooner.

Fantastic experience: The treatment I recieved for a shoulder injury was excellent. I'd tried another physio first as they were cheaper, however this was false economy. I feel I recieved much better value for money from Carl. The sessions were brilliant, I understood what my issue was, why it was being treated in a certain way and how I could continue to improve things at home. I don't leave reviews, I don't even give feedback on eBay, I've made an exception here as I couldn't recommend the service highly enough.

Fantastic experience: While I was South dropping off bikes I went to Momentum for a bike fit with John Dennis for my new Factor TT. Choosing a bike fitter isn’t an easy thing as there is so many out there. Personally for me I wanted someone with years of experience and someone who could take into account my ever growing list of injures! (Pelvis/neck/shoulder/knees) John was recommended by BigMuz and my mate Pete (who’s been fitted by every fitter this side of the equator) John worked with Retul in the past and also fits the Brownlee brothers and Tim Don. John is also a physiotherapist that’s worked with British Triathlon. Instead of fitting me to the bike he fitted the bike to me. Saddle up 1.6cm , back 11cm and various other little adjustments. I just did 100km on the bike and straight away the difference was pretty significant. Definitely worth a trip down to Newcastle, as others had told me he was the best bike fitter in the world and I would now have to agree

Fantastic experience: I'd highly recommend momentum to gain momentum in training. Whether that be in addressing and coming back from an injury or proactively improving in your discipline by undertaking guidance/sessions/classes from the plethora of specialists. I first visited in early 2022 for a recurrent, weak hips and glute med. John worked with me over the course of weeks to help me build into a sustainable strength programme which has played a monumental factor in my running improvement. I began the year running 18:30 for 5km and ended the year finishing Valencia marathon with a championship entry which is down to being able to put my first true consecutive blocks of training with no down periods with injury. I ran smoother and stronger than I ever have and my cadence and technique improved too. Since, I have revisited for niggles and see Kate Disley for regular maintenance, pre-race massage and fantastic conversation. Ill also be taking the momentum run class series that are now open to the public. I am over the moon that the team are delivering a gap where most runners lack education or have discipline to succeed in. Once you have the tools, preventing injury through strength becomes a lot easier. If you are based in the area id highly advocate for putting your trust in this team. If you work hard and hold yourself accountable alongside their guidance you will reap the benefits! Thanks Momentum for all the service you have delivered to make me a better "athlete".

Fantastic experience: Fully recovered from a back injury thanks to Jack’s help. Diagnosed the issue very quickly and mapped out a clear recovery plan which helped manage me back to recovery. Fully recommend, thanks very much!

Fantastic experience: I went for a pre-purchase sizing and prescription including a follow-up appointment once I have my new bike. John Dennis certainly knows his stuff and offers excellent value. We discussed my needs, my aspirations and choice of bike. I was measured, adjusted, measured, videoed, adjusted, measured and so forth. The advice I was given was invaluable and saved me well over £1,000 on the set up I thought I wanted to what is actually suitable for my various aches, pains and riding style. I'm retired, not particularly fit, have dodgy knees, back and hip but I like cycling. It keeps me moving. I was thinking bike fits were for super-fit racing types. Bike fits, especially with John at Momentum, are for anyone who likes riding and could use some professional guidance on things like frame size, reach, seat height, crank length. The list I was given on the various recommendations was huge. I sent the whole lot to Fairlight and they matched me up with the right bike. John's bike fit gear and knowledge is what you are paying for. As I say, it's well worth it. All round, totally recommend.

Fantastic experience: I was in a bit of a mess with my feet and after many appointments with different Podiatry specialist with no improvement I booked an appointment to get my feet scanned by John. The insole's arrived and after several weeks of use I have noticed a marked improvement and now walking pain free and hoping to be running again in the future. I also have had a bike fit completed by John the second fit I have had done by John with the first being for my TT bike several years ago. This time I wanted my new road bike set up for ultra distance riding. Lots of improvements were made and on the first outing I covered a 107 mile loop and the bike felt perfect with no aches and pains from the new position. I am more than happy to recommend Momentum to anyone looking for injury prevention and bike fitting, they full deserve the 5 star rating that I have given.

Fantastic experience: I was recommended by a friend to visit John Dennis for a bike fit on my new TT bike. John was very thorough in his assessment and spent a lot of time altering my bike to make sure my cycling position was as comfortable and efficient as possible. John was incredibly knowledgable and more than happy to answer all of my questions. Thank you so much John for an excellent bike fit. I will definitely book in for another bike fit with John in the future.

Fantastic experience: I had a bike fit at Momentum after searching in the local area for services. I have no prior experience of bike fitting and crucially (for me) they provided a comprehensive bike fit via technology, staff knowledge and experience. They identified areas to be corrected on both the bike and myself (hip impingement) offering solutions that have worked on the bike and provided myself the knowledge to begin to correct my hip impingement. You also get detailed fit data and I used this information for a new bike purchase to suite my needs. It's a great experience and information provider if you have never done it before (like me) or, if you have bike aches and pains issues and have not had a fit for a long time. I have no hesitation in recommending Momentum to anyone who is a regular rider as it provides valuable insight into how your body interacts with your bike ..... and knowledge is king. A great service and one of which I will no doubt be paying a return visit to in the future.

Fantastic experience: Visited Momentum Gym for a back massage by Kate Disley. Brilliant professional deep tissue massage alleviated my frequently occurring lower back & hip issues. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment in every way. Can't speak highly enough of Carl and would recommend him to anyone. The staff are kind and welcoming and I have seen a great improvement in pain levels since receiving treatment from Carl. They deserve every one of my five stars!

Fantastic experience: Jack's advice was great. Now injury free

Fantastic experience: Having never suffered from any muscular injuries, I suffered a hamstring injury playing football. After 6 week rest/recovery period from the injury and little progress in able to return to playing football, I needed some professional help to assist recovery. After an initial consultation with Jack, he quickly assessed the issue and devised a suitable recovery plan. After a 3 month period with progressive exercises and regular assessments I am fully recovered and back playing football. Without Jack's expertise and guidance it is unlikely I would be back playing regularly without any issues. Aidan Baker

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Momentum for nearly 8 months and would recommend it to anyone with or recovering from an injury, sporting or not. I went to resolve an issue I had with my glutes and persistent niggles which affected my cycling. Personalised strength and conditioning programme has been fantastic with a very friendly team which I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Such a supportive and friendly team inside out at Momentum. They really take an interest in your chosen discipline and support you all the way. This is on top of first class knowledge and expertise.

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff, very friendly from reception to all instructors and would highly recommend. Very professional, workouts are fun, and the equipment is excellent. Atmosphere is accommodating for all, and has a community feel to it.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Momentum for over a year now, and the knowledge and support helping me deal with some long-term running injuries has been excellent. The individualised training plans are always unique and well structured, and the gym itself is well-equipped, clean and friendly. I'm back building up running for the first time in a couple of years.

Fantastic experience: First class help with injuries and improving fitness & strength, helping recovery and return to sport. The physios work seamlessly with the trainers in the gym and everyone you meet, from the receptionists - who are friendly and welcoming - to the trainers and physios, are professional and helpful are brilliant to deal with. Can't recommend Momentum highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Momentum Sports injury clinic have been a fantastic support and help to my eldest son. He has Mosiac Downes syndrome, and suffers with hyper mobility. Therefore he requires strength and conditioning training to strengthen his muscles, and allow him better stability. He has attended Momentum for the last 2 years, and thoroughly enjoys his sessions. The staff are always so patient considering he has special needs. They ensure his training sessions are enjoyable, they encourage him at every step. Momentum often adjust and change his training sessions, and programme to keep things interesting. All of the staff at momentum are considerate, and professional, we highly recommend this sports facility!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Momentum for 2 years. For me it’s excellent. The customised and varied programmes keep it interesting and fresh. The coaches are great, in particular Teleri and Dani, whom I’ve worked with most. Their attention to detail is second to none.

Fantastic experience: Top bike fit and very useful follow up afterwards based on few weeks of real life riding.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a long time patient / customer / client with John following multiple surgeries and recoveries. The NHS rehab doesn’t really cover sports and without Johns expert advice I’d not have found the surgeon that ultimately helped me to cycle and run again. You go here if you want the best, and you get what you pay for.

Fantastic experience: Momentum is exceptional. The physios and coaches take the time and a real interest in understanding your needs (injury recovery, building strength, improving fitness, etc) and work with you to develop and refine individual programs to meet these goals. With expert physios, incredibly knowledgeable coaches, and top-notch sports massage, the team at Momentum work together to help you make progress. Can not recommend them highly enough

Fantastic experience: Was helped out a lot with my achilles injury.

Fantastic experience: Had a bike fit here with John. Had a proper programme of sports rehab here with Teleri. And had a LOT of sports massages here with Kate. They’ve all been fantastic. Top class in fact. And so at 58, I'm fitter, stronger and more supple than I’ve ever been. Can’t say more than that ! Thanks everyone.

Fantastic experience: Thank you very much Kate for sorting out my lower back pain which has been a problem for years with over training and not stretching. Treatment and great advice has me fighting fit again, brilliant. See you soon

Fantastic experience: Excellent Physio in Kate Disley Staff always friendly and helpful

Fantastic experience: Team is excellent and Carl has done a fab job

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! It has been wonderful having a female role model as my coach. The approach of all coaches is to personalise their care for you; they listen to your concerns and address them as part of each program designed for you. Their support is genuine and personable, and they work hand in hand with you to achieve your goals. This is the first gym I have been a member of, and I have been signed up for nearly 4 years. I think that says a lot!

Fantastic experience: Momentum = second home. I spend every morning, week in week out in group training covering a combination of strength, conditioning and movement. The coaches really are the best, they challenge me, correct me when technique is off and always encourage to me to push myself. Nothing is ever too much, even when it comes to amending a session to fit around an injury I may be carrying. Music is always great to keep motivation levels high and the sessions are really varied which keeps things interesting. The wrap around services they offer really have been a blessing, I've utilised both physio and sports massage on a regular basis to ensure I'm managing injury correctly. I've also now started to attend Pilates on a regular basis and really seeing the benefits. Semi-private training was also invaluable when in post-op recovery. Momentum delivers everything I need from a gym and I've made some good friends along the way.

Fantastic experience: Been going to Momentum for two years now and can't praise them enough. The whole setup is fantastic and team are great at what they do.

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Kate D for a sports massage enough. She has maintained my muscles and body so that i have never been out of work due to injury. Great team and service, Sarah

Fantastic experience: Momentum are excellent; they are physios who really understand sport and how to treat, manage and prevent injury. The bike fitting service is also great - again, they don't just tick boxes, or apply a formula without thinking about it, but really take the time to understand you and what you need and adopt a common sense approach, which I really value.

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Momentum enough. The small group classes are challenging, fun and varied and the coaches are always on hand to encourage and ensure my form is correct. I love how the different disciplines of strength, conditioning and movement are covered each week. Momentum is a gym where you can be known, which is great if you like a nudge in the right direction when you’re feeling tired! Having tried a few gyms over the years I have always come back to Momentum. The standard of coaching, and attention to detail make this gym an excellent choice.

Fantastic experience: Momentum have transformed my life by giving me back control of my body which I lost after serious illness. Their expert professionalism in designing my exercise plans and encouraging me to push myself in a safe friendly environment has made my recuperation a highly enjoyable experience . I owe the entire team a huge thanks and intend to continue improving weekly with their guidance .

Fantastic experience: Excellent assessment and treatment plus focused rehab and/or training needs with a precise program to meet these

Fantastic experience: I have been using the facilities and tapping into the extensive knowledge of the whole Momentum team for about a year now and they have all been truly amazing and supportive. They came highly recommended by my husband who had engaged Karl and the team as his physio following knee replacement surgery. He is now back rowing competitively and winning. From my point of view the key ingredient has been that each one of the team works out what is best for me. There's no boiler plate one size fits all here, the sessions are designed and tweaked to be completely tailor made for me. I would strongly recommend the team to anyone whatever level of activity you are trying to achieve.

Fantastic experience: I was recommended by a friend to attend after badly damaging my knee. I was given an appt the next day and had a comprehensive assessment by John. He devised a plan with gentle exercise for me and after 3 weeks I was able to move up to rehab assessment by Jack and now do twice a week classes. Once my initial pain and injury passed they took time to understand exactly what I want to achieve and agreed how I can work to get there in a long term programme. All the staff are so supportive and explain how to do the exercises so I am rebuilding my confidence every week! I am so grateful to have found such fantastic people!!

Fantastic experience: Really helped me get back on my feet - literally ! Everyone here is really lovely and beyond professional. So glad I decided to try training, as it's become my favourite thing.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic support from all the staff at Momentum during my re-hab from hip replacement surgery. In particular Carl, Teleri & Jack have worked on my specific programme with the aim of regaining full fitness and return to running in the coming months. They continue to make the daunting journey a realistic and achievable one. The positive and progressive mindset has kept me on track and made the experience largely enjoyable, which I was not expecting! Once the hip is "healed" I shall continue with Momentum for further progression and injury-prevention.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Momentum for the last few years, initially for physio but then as a client using the gym. In the time I have been going the service and knowledge from the whole team has been outstanding. I've had multiple operations during this time and the staff have done everything that they can to help with rehab and keeping me on track. If you're looking for somewhere to get genuine expert advice, treatment and strength and conditioning training I highly recommend Momentum.

Fantastic experience: A little overdue but wanted to give a massive thank's and thumbs up to Momentum and to shout out to Dani who have massively helped and educated me ( and listened to my moaning!) since last October on trying to overcome a very stubborn IT band issue. The guidance and advice was fantastic, I committed to three sessions a week with group PT once a week and I'm not sure I would have got to my next marathon without coming here and whilst picking up Covid two weeks before Edinburgh Marathon cost me a little time I managed to shave some more time off and get under 3hr 20, felt strong and didn't feel anything from the dreaded IT band, highly recommend these guy's and wouldn't hesitate to come back.

Fantastic experience: Having injured my right knee a few years back I found that, due to over- compensating, I was suffering pain in my 'good' knee. Following an initial consultation with Jack I began the 6 week back and knee course. Well, 4 weeks in and I can honestly feel a massive difference not only in the degree of movement/lack of pain but in my confidence to participate in various classes including indoor cycling and power pump. Truly professional service and the degree of expertise is spot on. If you have a problem, go visit Jack!

Fantastic experience: A very professional outfit, but approachable and friendly at the same time. Their sports massages (with Kate Disley) undoubtedly got me around London Marathon. Thanks Kate and team!

Fantastic experience: The setup at Momentum is extremely professional. The booking system is slick and simple, there’s always somewhere to park and the staff are excellent while you are here. I’ve been coming to Momentum for sports massages for years. My injury record has dropped massively and I put a large part of that down to the treatment I receive here across the calendar year. I was also scanned and fitted for sports orthotics a number of years ago at Momentum. The process was very easy, and quite fascinating. I use these insoles every time I workout, they still feel new after all these years and it remains some of the best money I’ve ever spent. The facility is clean, spacious and modern. The perfect place to exercise and receive high level sport treatment and advice. I’ve had the pleasure of receiving treatment from several different staff members and all have been different class.

Fantastic experience: Overall a very good friendly professional environment… supportive coaches and staff all around. I have definitely improved my core strength as a result of Momentum coaching…. I would definitely recommend to friends and family…. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Welcoming and professional putting you at ease from diagnosis to treatment and rehabilitation. I really appreciated the honest assessment and the explanation of what was essentially a two way contract to help me on my road to recovery. Expert treatment coupled with a plan to follow for rehab.

Fantastic experience: I initially joined Momentum for 3 months to improve the strength and stability of my knee. After a comprehensive and detailed assessment, a specific programme was put in place to target the knee but also to improve my overall strength and conditioning, which surprisingly was poor. I signed up for semi-private training which involved one coach overseeing a very small group of people (up to 4 people), all following training programmes designed for their individual needs. The sessions were well constructed, starting with warm up and stretching activities, leading to the main strength and power activities, finishing with a specific conditioning activity. Every 4 weeks the training schedule is reviewed and revised, based on how I was coping, and to target further weaknesses and strengths. Each block of 4 weeks had an excellent range of activities, full of variation and importantly building on the previous 4 weeks. What makes Momentum so different to so many other gyms is that all the training is dynamic and not static, and having a 35 metre strip to do varying pushing and pulling exercises over specific distances is fantastic. You are assigned one coach to oversee your programme and development, but of course the sessions can be taken by other coaches. All the coaches are brilliant: extremely knowledgeable, very quick in identifying incorrect technique, great motivators, can think on their feet if an activity needs slightly adjusting and most importantly all have fantastic and friendly personalities. As I was enjoying the sessions so much and noticeable improvement was being made in the strength and stability of my knee, along with my general fitness and conditioning I have continued my membership and am still a member after 18 months. Presently I attend one semi-private session a week and depending on time constraints the occasional open session, which is where you follow your programme without the support of a coach; but they are in attendance if you are unsure about anything. Would thoroughly recommend Momentum for improving strength and conditioning, and for anyone coming back from an injury or an operation.

Fantastic experience: Quality professional assessment and treatment. It may hurt but its effective!!

Fantastic experience: Great service, treatment and facilities and friendly staff

Fantastic experience: I've been a regular client of Momentum for the past 12 months. The sports massage from Kate has helped me massively with back/neck issues I've suffered with from running and cycling. Extremely professional and welcoming place, can't recommend highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I cannot thank Momentum enough for their professionalism and care in diagnosing my injuries and treating as well as taking the appropriate action to refer me for a scan to find out any underlying cause of said injury and then treat appropriately

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and really knowledgeable. I feel more aware of my gait and weaknesses as a result of the thorough assessment and follow up plan.

Fantastic experience: Kate was brilliant in diagnosis and recovery plan for a bad back caused by inflamed hamstring.

Fantastic experience: I have been using Momentum for sports message for a while now. Kate is fantastic, I would definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: I had an ACL replacement operation and I am using Momentum Sports Injury Clinic for the last stages of my recovery which should enable me to play rugby again. I've had top rate treatment across the board here. I have very little experience of using a gym or of injury recovery and generally don't like the idea of using a gym! But the trainers and coaches here have understood that and always made me feel comfortable. Adam has put together my recovery plan accordingly and regularly updated it to ensure I'm progressing as well as possible. I often see the other coaches on semi private sessions as well and they have all been great in helping me with any exercises on the plan, and adapting the difficulty and weight where necessary so even though there are four different coaches and sessions are semi private, it still feels like I'm getting a highly personalised one to one experience. There has also been a few times where I have had to change my booked session at fairly late notice and Abbie has been great at sorting anything like this out for me. All in all, I have actually enjoyed my recovery here, I've always felt like everything I do here is helping towards being able to play rugby again and that's down to everyone that works here being friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: Started in January with a nasty hamstring injury after cortisone’s and PRP in hospital, I was recommended John. I have not looked back, it’s been hard work and keeping up my rehab, after being told I would not run again to now on my way to running again! Got to thank John as I know im not easiest client in the gym I do like a giggle

Fantastic experience: While recovery is still ongoing, since seeing Carl I've been making great and steady progress from my climbing related shoulder injury. The rehab I am receiving from Momentum is very much focused on sports performance, which is where I've found other treatment to be lacking. It is achieving the desired results.

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym that I just found when I booked in to get orthotics (also superb service). It feels very welcoming and a safe space, being mixed in age and gender The music is eclectic and fun, reflecting the age range! Support and advice are completely individual and aligned with your own goals. I like having a mixture of coached and un-coached sessions which enable me to follow my strength programme, which is reviewed and changed every few weeks. I really enjoy going there. The team have definitely helped me attain the double - European and World Sprint Duathlon age group (65-69) champion in 2022. Thanks :)

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to Momentum for nearly 2 years and would recommend it to anyone with or recovering from a sporting injury. Momentum helped me with a Pre-Op programme to help me get as strong as possible ahead of surgery and as soon I was discharged I had a comprehensive post-op programme to follow. I have no doubt in my mind that I would not be at the stage I am at today with out Momentum’s help. The gym is well stocked, clean and has a great selection of session times. Everyone at momentum is fantastic, super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable and supportive.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and a really expert (and friendly!) team. Their strength and conditioning programming/coaching has really helped me improve my performance and prevent injuries. Would strongly recommend.

Fantastic experience: A weekly session is the ONLY way to keep sufficiently fit to survive whatever life throws at you!

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable and friendly staff who do their utmost to make sure training is enjoyable and rewarding whatever you are trying to achieve. No place or people better at helping you get to your goals.

Fantastic experience: Great supportive team with a real personal touch.

Fantastic experience: Best place in NE to go to be assessed, treated, rehabilitated following injury and to then improve your general strength and conditioning afterwards.

Fantastic experience: Momentum SIC have been looking after me since 2008. Dani designs an individual programme for my S&C according to my needs (race requirements and current weaknesses). Having been through 2 hip operations, I keep Dani on her toes with my ongoing injuries but she works diligently, strengthening up every part of me so I am strong enough to withstand the demands of my triathlon training. JD performed a bike fit for me after years of struggling to find a saddle that worked for me. After a number of sessions he got me comfortable enough to do the longer training miles and got me as aero as my hips would allow and still be able to run well off the bike. Without the team at Momentum, I would not have been able to compete at such a high level for this long and I would recommend anyone who has individual needs in their Strength or Rehab training to talk to Teleri about how they can help

Fantastic experience: I have been a momentum member since 18 months. With Teleri's guidance, I have become stronger and been able to cope with a demanding job. The trainers are great at adapting the training to suit your needs. They are always keen to help. I would definitely recommend momentum.

Fantastic experience: Excellent strength and conditioning gym in Newcastle. Professional and friendly trainers that motivate you to achieve. Great programmes that are focused on your goals and refreshed monthly to maintain motivation. Suitable for all ages, shapes and sizes, elite athletes as well as enthusiastic amateurs. Good value for money and highly recommended.
