Whether you play GAA, rugby or soccer, run, or train in the gym, our aim is to get you back to your sport, and back stronger. Richie is a chartered physiotherapist and athletic therapist who provides prehab, strength and conditioning and match-day cover for teams.
How we help
We treat muscle strains, ligament sprains, tendon problems and overuse injuries, and support rehab before and after surgery such as ACL reconstruction. Getting stronger before surgery can help recovery afterwards. After surgery, we follow your surgeon's protocol while progressing you through clear stages.
Returning to play
We use clear, criteria-based steps covering strength, movement quality and sport-specific tests to guide your return. Passing these lowers your risk of re-injury but doesn't remove it, so we'll help you keep key exercises in your routine afterwards.
Your plan
1. Settle pain and restore movement.
2. Rebuild strength, power and control.
3. Return to training and play, with a prevention programme to keep you there.
How many sessions?
Most sports injuries need around five sessions. Bigger rehab, such as after ACL reconstruction, may take up to around nine sessions spread over a longer period, with you doing most of the work in the gym between visits. We review your progress against agreed milestones at each visit.
Cost
Initial consultation €80, follow-up session €70. Once you're ready to train, strength and conditioning sessions are €60, and sports massage is €50 per half hour.
