Motus Life: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Motus is an incredible business. I’ve worked with Michelle and the team at Motus over the past year to resolve a chronic running injury. Michelle is a phenomenal Osteo, and the level of care and expertise she has shown me is second to none. They’ve recruited an exceptional group of Strength & Conditioning coaches. They’re talented, attentive and more broadly, just an awesome group of people to be around. For someone like me who hates strength training, they've somehow made turning up to the gym something I look forward to. After bouncing around to multiple doctors and physios for over a year before making the switch, my biggest regret is not finding the team at Motus sooner.
Thanks so much Katrina! So glad we could achieve great results with you Katrina. Credit to you and all your hard work along the bumpy road!
Fantastic experience: Groundbreaking Osteopath Gym that's transformational for regular folk looking to improve health, fitness or prior injury. An incredibly welcoming and inclusive environment for all ranges of fitness and ages. The training programs and methodology at Motuslife under the tutelage of the director and head osteopath Michelle, are cutting edge, and for me have been truly groundbreaking for my health span, strength, fitness, and mobility. I've gained 6kgs of muscle in 6 months, and am the strongest, fittest, and most mobile I've ever been!
Fantastic experience: A very unique gym experience. Excellent trainers who develop an evidence based, tailored program to meet the needs/goal of individual clients. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Great team and environment! The team listen to your goals and cater programs specifically for your needs. Would highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Ive never been to a gym where the team is more dedicated to help overcome all the challenges that come with starting to exercise again. Been here for about 6 months and my body has gone from tight hips, chronic tension headaches, regularly rolled ankles, intense PCOS symptoms and little confidence in the gym, to feeling stronger, less inflamed and more capable of getting my fitness up again. The osteo team work closely with the coaches and it’s reassuring when you get a program based on a proper assessment that looks your own bodies’ needs, not some generic “full body workout”. They really take care of you here and everyone that goes there is so chill and nice :) the whole place is a vibe and i always really look forward to coming in. If you’re looking for real quality care, awesome coaching and help with your health goals sustainably, I highly recommend Motus.
Fantastic experience: James is awesome
Fantastic experience: Love my experience at Motus! The team is super friendly and always ready to help you hit your goals. They offer a great mix of classes, from Strength and Conditioning to Yoga and Pilates, plus amazing recovery facilities like the infrared sauna and recovery boots. I’ve worked with Nick, one of the Osteos, who’s helped with my past injuries and improved my endurance training. Madii has also been great with my prehab and rehab during training. Highly recommend Motus Life for a complete approach to your health!
Fantastic experience: After a friend recommended Motus life for my daughter who had an injury we haven’t looked back . Now 6 of us regularly see staff at Motus Life , friendly, knowledgeable, clean and welcoming. Highly recommend and we travel from Coburg .
Fantastic experience: Michelle and the team were amazing. Very impressive space too!
Fantastic experience: I go to Motus for Osteo and the S&C program and both are incredible. Mich and Sarah are two amazing osteos with a wealth of experience - I always feel in safe hands with either of them and they’ve helped me through all the injuries/niggles I’ve had since I started coming here. The gym is also super - the trainers take everything into consideration (e.g. injuries, your goals and any sports you play) when writing your gym program and are always there to support while you work through the sessions. For someone like me who didn’t really know what I was doing in the gym, this has been key to me building my confidence and strength. Most importantly, everyone is so friendly and welcoming and it’s such a great community to be a part of - couldn’t recommend more!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been at Motus for nearly two years. It’s an excellent gym, but the attitudes and teamwork between the S&C coaches and health practitioners to ensure members are getting holistic care/conditioning is what makes it such a gem. Getting to the root of recurring back injuries with the osteo Nick and then continually adjusting my gym program to strengthen those areas has literally changed my life and my ability to move around. The community is also second to none - unpretentious, friendly, and such a great way to feel like you’re part of the neighbourhood.
Fantastic experience: Terrific gym with knowledgeable staff and a diverse bunch of locals working out and making progress toward our goals. I always feel welcome here and it's got something for novices like me and athletes I occasionally see going past me!
Fantastic experience: Very welcoming environment and friendly staff. Gym set up is elite and they have best guard dog . Michelle is the best osteo ever!
Fantastic experience: I had my first appointment at Motus Life yesterday. Firstly the approach to my injuries was holistic with an assessment of my walking and total body movements. A total review of my previous injuries and the a focus on the current. It was efficient and timely. There were a number of treatments and then strategies to improve my shoulders and lower back all in the one consult!! The change in 24 hours was incredible. I can recommend Motus Life as my pain has decreased and now I have a program to fix my issues. Many thanks I will be back for the next appointment soon.
Fantastic experience: A warm and welcoming environment with people that really care about what they are giving you. Michelle and the team have created a place that you feel comfortable walking into and everyone that I have seen in there have been great at their jobs
Fantastic experience: What a great team with awesome Health practioners. Really friendly community of people to train with. I highly recommend trying them out
Thanks so much Shane! Glad we can help!
Fantastic experience: I don't normally take the time to write reviews but Ive had such an awesome experience with Motus Life that i wanted to share. I was someone who didnt know what a gym looked like and found myself regularly feeling a lot of pain from day to day work and various ailments. Since working with the team at motus ive never felt better and all of my day to day pains have subsided, they were able to construct a tailored program to suit my specific needs and at every step of the way i have had all the help and support ive needed to keep me on track. Their knowledge and dedication is unmatched and not only has the combo of strength training and Osteo drastically improved my physical health but the team is a lot of fun to be around! Thanks for everything and keep up the good work Motus crew ! My only complaint is i wish Sunny attended more classes......
So great to hear Sean! We have loved being a part of your journey (especially Sunny)!
Fantastic experience: Motus have helped me immensely since I started treatment! Such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere☺️
Thanks heaps Bron! Love having you as part of our community
Fantastic experience: Motus is a pretty special place. I started seeing an Osteopath for life's aches and pains and after having major surgery, I spent 5 sessions working 1:1 with one of Motus's highly qualified exercises physiologists to support my recovery. The team at Motus take a holistic approach to health and wellbeing and the practitioners work together to create a tailored strength and conditioning program which targeted my needs. Soon after I recovered, I joined the small group sessions and have surpassed my fitness goals with the support of all the knowledgeable and encouraging trainers, including Sunny the Golden Retriever ❤️. I've made a lot of genuine friends at Motus and love attending weekly classes including Pilates, Yoga and the sauna to balance my exercise routine! A thousand thanks to you all at Motus, You're the best in the biz!
Gab! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It's been a pleasure having you!
Fantastic experience: This is the best Osteo/gym I’ve been to. Michelle and her team are amazing. I initially went for osteo treatment and have been going to strength classes for a year now, which is the first gym I’ve ever consistently gone to. The gym programs are tailored to you and the trainers are there to help with all exercises and it’s a really welcoming environment (it’s great for all bodies!) They also have yoga and Pilates inclusive. Highly recommend, especially if you don’t love a traditional gym.
Thanks so much Verena, appreciate you sharing your experience!
Fantastic experience: I love this Gym. I happily travel twenty minutes to get the care I receive here. I appreciate the synergy from Osteo appointment to Strength and Conditioning Class. It’s a family friendly place, and an inclusive space. If you’re not a dog person, then maybe Motus isn’t for you, but for me, dog cuddles with staff member Sunny are delightful. This being said, if you don’t really want to improve and push yourself, then don’t go here. They will give you specific feedback on the gym floor to make sure you’re targeting what’s needed and to push yourself. Please don’t go here, because I like there to be appointments available. Thanks.
Thanks for the kind words, we love having you EPB!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Motus life seeing Nick for a few months now and he has been great at addressing some of my biomechanics issues, explains things really well and it’s certainly giving me more mobility. Great space and facility too
Thanks Danielle, glad you're feeling better with Nick's help!
Fantastic experience: Amazing people and so helpful. Great results with a solid plan to get me back on track. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: As a 53-year old female continuing to play competitive Aussie Rules football, I have found myself with renewed strength and mobility thanks to seeing Dr Michelle Andrews for treatment and bio-mechanical assessment. Tailored strength and conditioning exercises are undertaken as part of a low-numbered group weekly in a superb, clean facility. This is the best investment I have made in myself for a long time.
Fantastic experience: I can not recommend Motus Life highly enough. Dr Michelle Andrews and her team, have created a particularly awesome balance of sports science and community spirit. Personally coming from several small injuries that had compounded over time, Dr Michelle assessed the bio mechanical whatever and created a bespoke program to realign and strengthen my walking, running and general structure. Do yourself a favor and check-in for a tune-up.
Fantastic experience: Love Motus. Great people who care about what they do.
Fantastic experience: A review is not enough for what Motus provides! I began as an Exercise Physiology client with Hannah and have now shifted to the smaller and more personal Strength and Conditioning Classes. The gym fit out is fantastic with plenty of space! Michelle, Abbey and Hannah have been excellent at creating an elite S&C program, tailoring the program to my individual needs. Cannot recommend Motus highly enough!
Fantastic experience: Really friendly and professional staff. Extremely informative regarding your diagnoses. Not just a money grab and honestly want to help. Would 100% recommend!
