Fantastic experience: I had been having issues with my neck and had seen several physios without much success. I made an appointment with Brian, and after just two sessions, my neck was feeling much better. I would highly recommend Brian professional, knowledgeable, and excellent at what he does!

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Brian for upper back pain and stress, and after just three sessions the improvement has been significant. The combination of treatments; acupuncture, cupping and massage has made a real difference where my pain has reduced noticeably and I feel much more relaxed overall. Brian is extremely knowledgeable, highly qualified and takes time to explain everything clearly. I always leave feeling calm and sleep incredibly well after each session. I would 100% recommend to anyone dealing with pain or stress-related tension. Thank you so much Brian.

Fantastic experience: 5/5! Cannot Recommend Brian MORE HIGHLY enough!!! If you have issues with sports injuries/back pain etc the multiple different techniques he uses can really make a huge impact on persistent injuries. He also gives a take home treatment plan for you to rehab while at home. Very friendly and welcoming guy.

Xu Lin Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I recently visited Brian for my persistent lower back pain, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the start, Brian took the time to thoroughly analyze my pain, explaining what might be causing it and outlining a clear treatment plan. His expertise and gentle approach made the entire experience both comforting and professional. After just one session, I felt a significant improvement, and my mobility has increased noticeably. I highly recommend Brian to anyone seeking effective, personalized massage therapy. His ability to pinpoint issues and deliver targeted relief truly sets him apart.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend. Knowledgeable and professional, he takes a very holistic approach to healing. He really helped me with sciatica pain.

Séamus Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend Brian. I had never been to a physiotherapist in my life but suffered a sports injury in my back which left me in constant pain for a week and sciatica down my leg. After one 40-minute session, I was walking around as if nothing had happened. An absolutely incredible improvement. Brian provided me with tailored exercises to do at home which also made a massive difference. After a couple of follow-up sessions, I am basically back to normal and exercising as usual. As well as being highly knowledgeable in his field, he is also friendly and takes the time to listen to his clients and put them at ease. Also a nice working environment - I especially liked the buddha. Thank you very much for everything Brian!

Janet Boyle Published on Google

Tulia Saraiva Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Very good professional! Great hands to find the pain even if you don't know exactly where is hahaha I went there last year feeling really bad sciatic pain, and after the first session it was way better and unfortunately few weeks ago happened the same, I didn't doubt to go back with him. I highly recommend him Fabulous service and very interesting the way he use different techniques to treat the bonus is that his price is very fair!

Niamh Power Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Brian has been my first port of call for years now. During Covid lockdowns I was in extreme pain with sciatica and chronic back pain. Only 2 sessions was needed with Brian, I was pain free back exercising and sleeping so much better. I also attended Brian who sorted out my neck and wrist pain due to sitting at a desk all day. His knowledge of Work Ergonomics made my posture so much stronger. Brian always follows up with you and checks in for feedback to know his treatment is working for you. He is worth his weight in gold to be able to get on with your life pain fee.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Brian for treatment for a few years. I was looking for a physio in Waterford who also provided other treatments such as acupuncture and cupping to help alleviate ongoing back and neck issues. I would highly recommend Brian, he provides high quality treatment with individual rehab and stretching plans afterwards to help prevent the injury reoccuring.

Stephen Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Brian, has helped me out immensely with my neck and shoulder injuries. The only man in town to go to if you're struggling with any pain.

Paul Butler Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I visited Brian about 7 weeks ago complaining of chronic hayfever like symptoms which I would suffer from 3-4 times weekly regardless of the season. Certain drinks foods or odours would trigger these attacks and I was constantly taking anti histamine and nasal spray to try and suppress or contain these attacks. I had 2 acupuncture sessions with Brian and after the first I was very sceptical thinking it was a waste of time as I didn’t feel any real benefit. But after the 2nd session within roughly 3 days I have not had an attack since. I have not takin any medications changed anything in my diet and have not had 1 attack in in approx 5 weeks. I would strongly recommend any1 with similar issues to give it a try and couldn’t recommend Brian highly enough
