What our patients say
After sustaining a very painful shoulder injury I went to Aycliffe physio for some treatment. I received a first class service and treatment and although it wasn’t a quick fix it was worth every penny. They cared about getting my shoulder fixed and talked me through everything they did. I received hands on treatment along with exercises for in between appointments. Couldn’t recommend them enough, and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again if required.
