Your Rehab Physio
was born out of the idea to make elite level physio concepts
available to all active sports men & women no matter the level.
available to all active sports men & women no matter the level.
The key is to not simply treat the symptoms but address the cause of your injury.
Prevent and reduce the risk of injuries happening again and stop loosing time away from the sport you love. Part of the Assessment, Treatment & Rehabilitation process will be to find where we can improve on range of motion, strength/power and co-ordination that you may not have thought were contributing to the injury. Improving these will make you a more robust athlete!!
If you understand what drives your pain whether it be a structure, training load or movement pattern error and the key movement strategies to improve it, this allows you to make decisions for yourself, take responsibility for improving your pain and outcomes and remove dependency on short term fixes. Like all things in life, what you put into the rehabilitation process is what you will get out of it.

I have been coming to see Niamh for many years now and I say you will struggle to find a better physiotherapist.
From her professionalism and knowledge with injuries down to her wit and humour I feel comfortable all the times that I’m getting the best treatment and care for my injuries.
As an Olympic athlete there is no one else I would go to honestly. Niamh will always push to get me back as quick as possible but also better than I maybe was before….I know my money is well spent.
The rehab exercises given are detailed and her communication throughout appointments and aftercare is second to none. Trust me you will struggle to find a better physio and I went to many before Niamh. 5 stars in my eyes

Niamh’s help got me back to running and competing again after a recurring and chronic achilles injury had made everyday life, never mind running, uncomfortable. Firstly, she took time to thoroughly understand all factors that may affect/contribute to the injury, talking through the rationale of my habits and allowing these all to be laid out, critically reviewed and understood. Following this, Niamh set small, short-term and manageable goals towards the target of being injury free, talking through with me the reasoning behind rehab exercises and continually reviewing effectiveness of these. This allowed me to understand the injury and my own body better during the rehab process, encouraging me to sustainably manage the pathway out of the injury myself.
Top class physical therapy paired with coaching a sensible and sustainable mindset in athlete’s own body management. Could not recommend highly enough.

Niamh is excellent at identifying and addressing injuries and niggles, and also helping patients understand what is wrong and why these injuries occur. She always gives practical steps on what can be done to address the underlying issue and leaves patients feeling much more in control over their conditions. I first started seeing Niamh due to severe ITB issues meaning I couldn’t run 2km without being in pain. Since then Niamh has helped me work through several injuries and niggles, and been fundamental in helping me achieve my goal of completing an Ironman triathlon. I couldn’t recommend Niamh highly enough!
David Lucas
I am very fortunate to have worked with Niamh for over 10 years. Having worked closely with her within the elite sports setting with Ireland Men’s Hockey, I have learned from world class expertise in rehabilitation. Her ability to brainstorm difficult and complex situations whilst putting athletes first makes her one of the best in the business. I highly recommend Niamh for any of your physio issues.
Lisa Costley
As an elite athlete it is essential to have a trusted team of professionals to perform at your best. I was fortunate to have Niamh as my physiotherapist for over 13 years of my running career, keeping me injury free and ready to perform. After retirement from elite sport, I have continued to work with Niamh both as a private client and in a professional capacity. As an athletics coach and strength and conditioning coach Niamh is my recommended physiotherapist for athletes. We work closely together problem solving for athletes and Niamh communicates with me regularly, providing comprehensive handover for athletes in their return to training. Niamh is professional and approachable and has client wellbeing at the heart of her work.
