Fantastic experience: Over the years I have attended Carrigaline Physiotherapy on different occasions and on every visit I have received excellent care. I recently had an appointment for a sore back. Mairead is very skilled at her work and gives follow up exercises and instructions between sessions and at the end of care. I trust her knowledge and have always felt in safe hands. The care you get from the minute you walk through the door until you leave is second to none. I could not recommend them more.

Fantastic experience: I recently finished a number of weeks of treatment here. It was a very positive experience, I felt comfortable and listened to. The staff are very friendly. James was educated and informative and helped me get back to running. I was quite concerned when I arrived as I thought my injury may have been serious but James understood what the problem was in a single session and put me on the road to recovery. There is great support offered outside of sessions such as an app which tells you which exercises you need to complete and how many reps and sets etc, as well as instructive videos on correct form which is helpful if I was unsure. You can also email at anytime if you have questions or are unsure about a certain exercise. I am now injury free and able to train without any pain. Very smooth experience, I'll be back here if i encounter issues again.

Fantastic experience: I was extremely happy with my experience at Carrigaline Physiotherapy. I dealt with James who was absolutely fantastic, and he gave me some really great treatment and fantastic guidance. I am runner, and getting to full fitness is so important to me.. Thanks to James' quick diagnosis and excellent programme, I was back training in no time.. Really great to deal with and I cannot recommend the Carrigaline Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic enough..
