Thank you Dean and happy travels!

We’d like to say a heartfelt thank you and goodbye to Dean Corrigan, one of our beloved Service Managers. He’s off to trek the world – an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime adventure. He will be missed dearly by all of us at Virgin Active. Best wishes!

Goodbye Hayley. Hello Tommi & Lloyd!

Our Personal Training Manager, Hayley, is making the move to Virgin Active Wearside for 3 months. It’s a big career step and we wish her the best of luck in her new placement. In the meantime, we’d like to congratulate Tommi Baker and Lloyd Gorden who have been appointed in a dual role as Personal Trainer and Personal Training Manager for the 3-month period. Any questions, just ask and they’ll be happy to help!

Please help our Lesley Race for Life!

Our Fitness Manager, Lesley, has been training hard to participate in the Race for Life on Sunday, 13th May. It’s an amazing effort to raise money for Cancer Research and we’d like to wish her all the very best of luck on the day. It’s a charity that is very close to Lesley’s heart, so please ask Reception if you’d like to donate.

What can Sports Rehab UK do for you?

The experts at Sports Rehab UK can get you back to your best, safely and effectively, from the convenience of your city centre club.  With every new patient, Sports Rehab UK takes time to fully understand the root of any physical problem before personalising a rehabilitation programme to suit. The body needs time to change – as it would to lose weight or build muscle – and Sports Rehab UK operates with a Block Booking System to allow you to purchase sessions in blocks of 4, as required. You can book in with team members, Mike, Allan and Laura, throughout the week. Each has specialist training and works with Elite Rugby, Handball and Basketball teams. Mike specialises in manipulative and manual therapy, Myofascial release, Kinesio taping, strength and conditioning, and his sports are Martial Arts and Athletics.
Allan has just completed his Sports Massage Association qualification and specialises in knee rehabilitation and functional taping. He has a keen interest in the healing benefits of yoga and Pilates, and enjoys strength training and endurance events. Laura specialises in Release Therapy, Kinesio Taping and has trained in the Viper system for rehabilitation purposes. Laura is also a keen swimmer. The combination of medical and sporting knowledge makes Sports Rehab UK the natural choice to get you back to your best. Call today to find out more!
