Chris Boynes Physio - Consett

Chris is absolutely amazing! Knowledgeable, friendly, kind and encouraging. He’s done wonders for my knees after a replacement…treating my whole body rather than just the knees and it’s made a HUGE difference to my recovery. He used the deep tissue oscillator on me, and before my sessions, I could barely walk 20 minutes without pain and now I can do 7 miles! And counting!
Can’t recommend him highly enough and it was worth travelling the 90 minutes from North Yorkshire.

Following surgery to repair my badly damaged shoulder Chris put me on a rehabilitation programme which included regular physio & strengthening exercises. After each visit Chris would introduce additional progressive exercises to improve strength & mobility. The programme was very successful with my consultant being extremely pleased with my progress each time I revisited him. Thanks to Chris I regained full mobility of the joint & 95% of the strength after just 3 months. With the exercises that Chris has recommended I expect to gain full strength within a very short period. Chris is extremely knowledgeable & professional with a progressive ethic to get the best results. Without any hesitation I would recommend his services to anyone.

I found Chris after searching for a MSK physiotherapist on Google. I had aggravated my femoral nerve, which resulted in pain in my left hip. Following this, I had lower back pain and neural sensitivity. Chris is friendly, knowledgeable and highly skilled. After a thorough examination, he devised an exercise plan for me to follow, which worked wonders. This was then tweaked after my second visit when I had a better range of movement. I also benefited from some Deep Oscillation Therapy that he uses. I would not hesitate in recommending Chris and I will certainly use him again in the future if I have any further problems.

Professional, knowledgable and eager to help. I went to see Chris with an injury that was not easy to diagnose. Whilst providing treatment that alleviated my pain Chris helped me navigate and obtain various specialist assessments via my GP. That process eliminated numerous possible alternative causes. This allowed Chris to conclusively diagnose the issue, which is rare, not easy to identify, and difficult to treat. I have finished my treatment pain free and able to push myself again - something I feared might not happen due to various persons before Chris being unable to identify the cause. Highly recommended. Thanks Chris.

From my husband Michael. Found Chris through an Internet search, I was really struggling with my hip. It was so bad I thought I needed a new one. Went to see Chris and it was a muscle at the top of my leg that was giving me the pain. From hardly being able to walk and stand for a few minutes, I can now go for a walk. I've just had my last session with Chris this week. After a few sessions the difference is unbelievable. We've just come back off holiday where I was able to take the dog for a good walk on the beach. I have recommended Chris to someone today. So please we found Chris.

I was told by my orthopaedic consultant that I needed a knee replacement, but that prior surgeries, earlier in life, meant a higher risk of failure and therefore surgery should be postponed until pain levels meant it was worth taking the risk. I was also told there was no point in going to a physio.

Thank goodness I ignored that last piece of advice and found Chris.

Four months ago walking was really painful and I felt miserable about the situation. Walking a mile would have been impossible. Recently I walked over 9 miles of the Norfolk Coast Path and could have walked further. Seeing Chris has made a massive difference to my quality of life.

I have no hesitation in recommending to go to see him if you find yourself in similar circumstances.

I probably will need a new knee one day - but that day is a long way further away now than I thought in February.

Chris helped enormously with my Stiff/Frozen shoulder. I had been in chronic pain for over 2 years, whilst having my telephone consultation and having to explain the constant pain to him I was so tearful I could hardly speak. My first appointment with Chris was amazing he used IMS ( I call it needle therapy) the pain was gone, I mean gone no pain. I still have a Stiff/Frozen shoulder and we are now working with exercises to increase the movement which will take time, but an amazing experience. Highly recommended.

Chris is a very knowledgeable, experienced and professional physio who is passionate about his skills. He only wants the very best for his patients and will try everything to improve their lives.
I have been treated by Chris for the last three years and although he cannot reverse my condition, he works tirelessly to help it. My mobility has improved very noticeably, and that has also boosted my confidence – which has been commented on by my friends.
I have been happy to recommend Chris to friends, who have all been delighted by his treatment and so I would recommend him to anybody.
