Total Performance Centre

Well, I will never need look for a remedial massage therapist again. Mick is incredible.
Not only did he do miracles for my back/glute/leg pain with his deep tissue massage, he also took the time to explain the mechanics and reasoning behind what was causing the pain, and gave me thorough explanations and demonstrations on how to help adjust and strengthen my movements to get the correct muscles functioning properly again.
To top it off he is also a lovely and welcoming person! I will be back Mick!

If you are after someone who is a wealth of knowledge with all things fitness and your body, Mick is the man!!!
Mick has been treating me for years and not only is his needle therapy and massage the best I have ever had... EVER! He also helps with setting up strengthening exercises to correct any issues I may have to prevent injury happening again.
Super easy to chat with and the most knowledgeable dude out there.

Michael Rand, the owner/Proprietor, is a very knowledgeable man, & runs small group fitness strength training, & spin classes, as well as Remedial massage.
He is a very good teacher & coach, & I have really enjoyed attending The Total Performance Centre.
Sadly though, he is shutting up shop & relocating to The Sunshine Coast at the end of this year, due to sales losses. Hunter St Mall won't quite be the same without him.
I couldn't recommend him enough, & wish him all the best with his future endeavours.

First port of call for remedial massage in Newcastle - Mick is an expert at the treatment of injuries, and as an added bonus, gives instructions in exercises designed to prevent further injury. Well planned exercise classes and highly supportive personal training - hell on earth at the time, but absolutely worthwhile with great results

Mick is the only place to be if you are injured. He ie THE best massage therapist in Newcastle. He was recommended to me by a friend and I have told all of my friends about him. I have witnessed MANY people having their injurys sorted out by Mick. He really is the man!

So Mick ruined me (bear with me)

I started seeing Mick for massages to treat pain in my shoulder and hip. My forearm was crushed several years before and had I had never regain the strength in my left arm and shoulder and was always in pain from it. I have seen countless doctors, physios, chiros and masseuses over the years in an attempt regain full use of my limb yet none of them have helped me like Mick has. He took a step back and assessed my movement and lifestyle and suggested some changes to help me become free of pain and strong again. One suggestion was to come along to the strength and conditioning classes.

If you're an athlete looking to improve your performance, a busy parent wanting to loose weight to keep up with the kids, a desk worker with poor posture, recovering from an injury...basically if you are a person you will benefit from the classes at TPC. Saying that though, if you are a "mass gains/must lift heavy weights" kind of person that is not willing to listen, than maybe this place isn't for you. I was overwhelmed by the warm and supportive community of the classes and also the diversity. It's a gym session you will want to go to, despite Mick's terrible jokes.

I couldn't do a push up when I started attending classes. Six or so months later I can do 20+. Mick and his team educate, not indoctrinate. Having now moved interstate I have not been able to find a gym or massage place that even compares to the TPC. So Mick has ruined me for other gyms perhaps forever. Regardless, Thanks Mick for giving me my life back.

Mick is an outstanding professional in his field. He combines his knowledge and skills in massage therapy with his deep understanding of human movement to aid in your recovery. I am truly grateful for his assistance with my recovery.

I have been training at TPC for over 3 years now. Before starting back in 2016 I was not keen on the idea of gyms at all, however for the last 3 years I have looked forward to going to TPC and training with the team there. All of the trainers and other members at TPC are always willing to help each other out with technique and encouragement and it is a super welcoming environment!
No matter whether you are going to a spin class, circuit HIIT class or a strength and conditioning class you will have a great workout and a little bit of fun while you're doing it! There is a class for everybody and every fitness level from beginners to seasoned trainers and the trainers at TPC are always happy to make changes to exercises in the class to suit individual needs of members.

I was recommended Mick by a work colleague, he knows his stuff. If you ever need a good remedial massage therapist in Newcastle-this is the guy. Fixed my neck pain I’d had for years.

Expert remedial massage, great knowledge and explanation of the body. Extra strength and conditioning tips on top of the massage was a real standout in Michael's service. Would highly recommend! :)

Without a doubt, the most concise and effective treatment and strategy for my needs and goals. Modern facility, best equipment, ultimate instruction and tuition. I use TPC for Spin, Strength and Conditioning, Crossfit style sessions, Massage, Myotherapy, Personal Training and the Retul Bike Fit system. Mick will give you the coaching and strategy (plus the 'push') that you need to achieve your goals.

Modern equipment in a very convenient location. Mick is such a great instructor!

Pleasure doing business With
Michael easy to deal with great communication. Thanks
