Testimonials
Vestibular Migraine
Just to say another huge thanks to you for all your help, encouragement and advice. I've had a lovely holiday, but believe me, there's no way I could have enjoyed it so much without the techniques you've taught me. It's really made me feel in control and more relaxed, particularly in busy environments. I'm feeling so much better so I'm carrying on with the exercises, just to make sure.
Thanks to you, I'm back to my old self and I've got my life back.

BPPV and imbalance
I would like to thank Kate for (not hyperbole) the life transforming treatment I had last Monday. The vertigo was getting so bad I was in danger of losing my independence, now I feel 95% normal.

BPPV
When I visited Kate Bryce I was feeling very down about my vertigo and quite anxious. Kate immediately put me at ease and carried out a very thorough and professional assessment and diagnosis of the cause of my vertigo. The procedure she conducted to stop the vertigo was gentle and impactful. Her follow up on my visit was thorough and I am pleased to say that she cured my vertigo with that one visit.

BPPV
Having suffered with ongoing vertigo for months, numerous unproductive NHS treatments and feeling quite defeated by the condition, I went to see Kate Bryce who really listened and gave me the confidence that the problem could be resolved. After only two sessions, I’ve had no further sensations and feel great! Kate is so skilful, knowledgeable, and passionate about her work. Her genuine interest in helping makes her one in a million. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kate to anyone suffering from this debilitating condition – she is a fixer and a healer for the body and mind! I only wish I had the benefit of hindsight and went to see Kate sooner. Thank you so much, Kate!

Unlocking full potential

Young and feeling dizzy
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 of people and will never stop singing their praises. Thank you for everything. R Neff 2022
Back to golf after hip fracture
Two months after an operation for a cracked femur, I still had significant restricted movement of my hip, which made walking particularly difficult. After meeting Kate, following a friend’s recommendation, she wasted no time in correctly assessing and treating me. The difference she made to my mobility over just a matter of weeks was remarkable, and it was all done with a smile on her face and a great deal of encouragement along the way. I am now back going for walks, playing golf and running around after my grandchildren, all of which seemed to be beyond me before Kate’s physio treatment. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

'15 years of balance issues'
After having a balance issue for about fifteen years, I was of the opinion that nothing I had tried would alleviate this problem. I was always looking on line for help, hoping that something would pop up that I could relate to and find a solution. A lot of people seem to be in a similar position to myself, but the overall impression was to either find a medication that would reduce the symptoms or live with the problem. It was only through attending a Balance Open Day at the Freeman Hospital that I was introduced to Kate Bryce, who was giving a talk on the benefits of physio to the class. I could relate to the way Kate described the problems that go with the balance issues and was impressed that at last someone understood how I was feeling. Although balance exercises had always been a part of helping to overcome the problem, for whatever reasons there was not sufficient funds to help the individual move to the next stage of physio classes that were specifically designed to help with balance issues. As a result, I was able to contact Kate and through her professional outlook and her dedication to helping people with similar problems to myself we were able to design a programme to help reduce the fears and create a regular series of exercises that can be done in conjunction with my regular appointments. I must say that through her support, it has helped me enormously to understand the issues relating to balance problems, and would recommend that anyone of a similar situation should give this a go. There is help out there, do not feel as if nothing can be done. Balance physio means that I can get back to normal, without feeling that there is no light at the end of the tunnel. I would have no hesitation therefore in recommending Kate to anyone with balance issues. Get in touch, there is help out there. A Spires 2019
