For more than a decade, Aycliffe Physiotherapy, based in Langton Business Centre on Durham Way, Aycliffe Business Park, has provided treatment for musculoskeletal problems in order to help clients go about their everyday life. Practice manager John Griffiths said: “When we first started here nearly 12 years ago we had just the one treatment room, now we have three treatment rooms plus a fully equipped Pilates and rehabilitation studio. “A lot of our success is down to our approach to our clients and the quality and continuity of the service we provide. “Back in 2002 we were the only physiotherapy practice in the area. There wasn’t much consumer orientated business here on the Park then but for us the location made absolute sense as it is so easy to get to and with ample free parking.” Aycliffe Physiotherapy specialise in treating problems such as back or neck pain, arthritis, pulled muscles or sprains, sports injuries, shoulder pain, tennis and golfers elbow, repetitive strain injury, headaches and whiplash injuries. The services available include physiotherapy, acupuncture and Pilates. They run regular Pilates classes which have proved highly popular with local people. They only employ highly-experienced graduate chartered physiotherapists, all are HPC (Health Professions Council) and CSP (Chartered Society of Physiotherapy) registered. They are Physiofirst members and are approved by all health care insurers including BUPA, AVIVA and AXA. Aycliffe Physiotherapy has a strong team of six highly skilled chartered physiotherapists lead by Clinical Partner Caroline Griffiths MCSP, who has 20 years’ experience herself and together the team has over 100 years of professional expertise. John added: “It’s not just about the clinical treatment, it’s a dedicated one-to-one session, where the physiotherapist will find out how the injury is im pacting on a client’s life and how best to assist their recovery to fit in with their lifestyle. Another big asset the practice has is being able to get to the root of the problem quickly. Aycliffe Physiotherapy Clinical Partner Caroline Griffiths works with a patient “We have a very experienced team here,” said John. “Whatever problem you may have, our physiotherapists will probably have seen it before and this really enables us to apply treatment quickly and effectively.” Aycliffe Physiotherapy treats clients from far and wide but they do see many clients from Newton Aycliffe and they have enjoyed longstanding relationships with many local companies including Gestamp, Roman and OHTS and with many local organisations such as the running club, squash club and Woodham Golf Club. John said: “This is a great location for anyone who needs us. We have historically kept our prices realistic by being quite a big practice and being able to accommodate a higher volume of clients than most clinics but without compromising on the quality of the care we provide. “For anyone who hasn’t given us a try yet please come along and see us. We will be happy to help.” If we can help you or your family or your friends please call the team on 01325 310122.
