Here are the opening times for the Tallaght clinic. If these times don't suit just DM me and we can organise an appointment outside of these hours.

Also as said in my last post I will be operating out of the studio on the weekends. Again just request a time slot and we can get you in 💪

We Athletic Therapists are all over the world with growing and strong foundations mainly in the USA and Canada. The profession is growing here in Ireland as we can play an essential role within sports as well as helping people from all different populations with pain or injury related issues.

Athletic Therapy may sound like it is similar to Physiotherapy, which it is; however, there are differences. Athletic therapists specialise in musculoskeletal health (muscle, ligaments, tendons, etc) where are physiotherapy covers a broad range of physical therapies. In addition to this Athletic therapist have a strong foundation and understanding of strength and conditioning principles making us excellent sport injury rehabilitators.

In order to become an Athletic Therapist here in Ireland you need to complete a level 8 BSc Athletic Therapy degree, undertake 500+ hours of relevant work experience, be certified in Emergency and Cardiac first aid and complete an entry exam which requires a pass mark of 70%.

Athletic Rehabilitation Therapy Ireland (ARTI) is the governing body of Athletic Therapists in Ireland. It is responsible for the promotion, regulation, and continuous education of Certified Athletic Therapists.

⭐So if you are struggling with injuries &/or pain don't hesitate to get in contact and we can begin to plan your return to full health ⭐

⭐Tallaght set up⭐

Here is where I am going to be working out of for the next while!

Everything from clinical assessment tools to exercise equipment which can be utilised to help you drive on with any injury rehabilitation you may need.

There is a wide array of weights including 2 X 20 kg adjustable dumbbells, adjustable mini barbell and resistance bands 💪

This is set up right next to several flat grass pitches that can be used for any outdoor return to running and performance sessions!

So if you have any injuries or suffering from pain don't hesitate to get in contact and we discuss a plan. I will be here mainly mid week and the occasional weekend.

I will also be working in around Co. Laois on the weekends so if you're in that area give me a shout and we can schedule sessions 👌
