The Physio Ward

Fantastic experience: I had to bring my 14 year old daughter down to Fiachra as she was complaining of severe pain in her knee. At initial consult Fiachra identified the exact issue and worked very closely with her every week to solve the issue. Each week he changed up her excercises to suit what needed to be done. After a few weeks we are glad to say that her knee is fully healed and both her knees are stronger than they were. I would highly recommend Fiachra.

Fantastic experience: Fiachra is 100%, great to deal with and very informative and helpful, would recommend.

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend the Physio Ward enough, I was seeing Fiachra for low back pain that I’d been struggling with for over a year, and in just a few sessions I was back training and playing matches pain free. He was brilliant throughout and I’d highly recommend the physio ward to anyone dealing with an injury or ongoing pain.

Fantastic experience: Fiachra is a highly skilled physiotherapist who creates personalised, progressive challenges to advance your physical goals. His responsiveness and dedication to developing effective movement drills has been invaluable.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant service. Professional, knowledgeable, and really took the time to help and explain everything. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Fiachra. I started attending after suffering a lumbar disc extrusion and nerve damage. Fiachra created a specific rehabilitation plan to help build up my core and calf muscles which enabled me to get back playing football and golf within 3-4 months. The service provided throughout was excellent and was also contactable during this time.

Fantastic experience: After rupturing my ACL earlier this year I contacted Fiachra to guide my prehab prior to surgery and my rehab and return to play after. I am now 11 weeks post-op and I'm delighted with how it's all going. I've been very impressed with Fiachras expertise, the structured approach he provides and the gym equipment and environment of the clinic in Stamullen. I am feeling very confident for this stage of the rehabilitation process and I'm looking forward to my next session and more progress.

Fantastic experience: In July 2025 I moved suddenly to avoid a moving bale of straw. When I went to stand up my right leg collapsed under me. I phoned Fiachra and he had an appointment. On examining the knee and thigh he recommended getting an MRI done in the Sports Clinic for which he sent a referral email before he would contemplate treatment. The MRI showed a high grade quadriceps tendon tear along with a high grade rectus femoris. Initially surgery was indicated but on examination the consultant decided that physiotherapy alone could give a similar outcome. I started with Fiachra at the end of August and for the next 7 months his combination of mobility and strength building exercises gradually loosened out the joint and built up the strength and repaired the damaged muscle. In April he discharged me and while warning me not to try and out sprint cows I felt the knee was almost as good as it was before the accident with the added bonus of not having to have surgery. It has continued to improve since. I could not recommend Fiachra highly enough initially for his expert diagnosis, then his treatment and rehabilitation of my injury and the chats about all things sport.

Fantastic experience: Having attended the Physio Ward over the years for both major and minor injuries, I would highly recommend them to anyone. I am currently recovering from Achilles tendon surgery and can feel the benefits from each visit. The level of knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail shown by Sarah and Fiachra is exceptional and has been a huge help to my recovery.

Fantastic experience: First went to Fiachra last January after a bad bout of lower back pain. Have been going regularly since and feel that the back has not only been strengthened (I've had no reccurence of the initial issue) but also my overall core. Fichra's schedule of exercise widened and increased at a pace that suited me as the months went by, which meant that I always felt I was doing new routines at home after each session and that kept me motivated. I highly recommend The Physio Ward to anyone contemplating using their services.

Fantastic experience: Recently I had a problem with my back I was having very bad muscles spasm and in a lot of pain so I attended The Physio ward in stamullen and found them to be excellent they have me sorted out and gave every support going forward I would have no hesitation in recommending them many thanks for everything Sheila

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience with Fiachra at PhysioWard. I came in with a sore pain in my hamstring and he knew straight away what the issue was. He provided me with effective rehab exercises along with really knowledgeable advice on the type of runs I should be doing to help the injury recover properly. Within a couple of weeks the pain had eased significantly and I was able to get back racing again. Highly recommend Fiachra to anyone dealing with a running injury.

Fantastic experience: Saw Fiachra for a hip issue — brilliant experience. Really thorough, explained everything clearly, and sent me home with a great set of exercises. Friendly and helpful, couldn't recommend him enough!

Fantastic experience: Since starting Pilates classes at the Physio Ward, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my overall strength and balance, as well as greater awareness of areas I had previously neglected. Conor is an attentive and supportive instructor who adapts exercises to individual needs and regularly checks in for feedback. The classes are welcoming, well-structured, and progressively build each week. I would highly recommend these classes to anyone looking to improve their strength, mobility, and overall wellbeing!

Fantastic experience: The physio ward deserves and five star I've attended there for shoulder injury and hips great recovery plan has me bk to full-strength again with the knowledge on injury and sport is top class highly recommended thanks again physio ward

Fantastic experience: Fiachra and team were outstanding, providing the expert guidance and support needed to successfully navigate a tricky knee recovery. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for dedicated and effective rehabilitation.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service! A true physio who really knows how to help!

Fantastic experience: Great exercise classes here for those with osteoporosis. Focusing on weight-bearing, the exercises move around the room using weights and other equipment. Time flies and there is a definite benefit.

Fantastic experience: I attended the strength for life/ better bones classes with Sarah at the Physio Ward. I found them very beneficial and enjoyable. Classes are small and Sarah is excellent very encouraging and ensures you are doing each exercise correctly. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I recently participated in a 4 x 2 weekly classes, tailored for the older person, with Sarah , physio in the Physio Ward. It was circuits with weights and other floor and supported exercises. We began slowly and gradually increased the weights as we improved strength. I am a 74 year old lady, quite good physically. I found these classes excellent for improving balance and posture. Not too difficult but they were targeted well to each persons ability. I never felt it was too easy either. Sarah was very professional and kept matters moving well. It was comforting also to know that a trained physio was guiding us. All I can say is that this is my first time with weights and I was very pleased with the outcome. I feel energised and stronger. I also noticed a big improvement in my and other people’s posture after the last class. The camaraderie was excellent too. I can’t wait to resume again after Easter. Until then, I’ve even bought myself some weights to keep up the exercises!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending Fiachra on and off since 2018, initially when I started running and was dealing with the usual minor niggles. As I moved into marathon training from 2022 onwards, I began seeing him regularly for maintenance and to stay injury-free, and that consistency has made a huge difference. Fiachra has helped me get to the start line of multiple marathons in great shape, but what really stands out is his support through more serious injuries. After tearing my ACL following the 2023 Dublin Marathon, I worked closely with him on rehab and was able to complete the 2024 London Marathon just a minute off my Dublin PB. Since then, I’ve gone on to run Dingle Marathon and achieve a Boston Qualifying time at my fourth Dublin Marathon. Even when things haven’t gone to plan, like a severe hamstring injury while training for Berlin, Fiachra has always taken a thoughtful and balanced approach. He takes everything into account, including your own goals and the hard work you’ve put in, and if it’s achievable he’ll help get you to the start line safely, while also making sure recovery is properly managed afterwards. His guidance through that hamstring injury, including recommending further investigation and managing the long recovery process, was invaluable. Thanks to that, I was able to return to training and complete Barcelona Marathon this year relatively injury-free. Fiachra is incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in his clients. He always checks in after races and goes above and beyond. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and his team to anyone, whether you’re starting out, chasing big goals or just general physical injuries.

Fantastic experience: Went to Fiachra with my lower back problems post pregnancy, great atmosphere and felt difference after just one session! We slowly progressed to strengthen all my muscles and also I learnt how to cope if any issues start coming back, have lots of different exercises from the sessions and I know which ones to use for what problem, which is great take away. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I couldn't be happier with the care I received from Fiachra after having a full right hip replacement. He worked conscientiously with me to get me back to full health and mobility. He was knowledgeable, patient and really took the time to understand my needs. I can't thank him enough. Fiachra's expertise and support made a huge difference in my recovery .

Fantastic experience: We took our 12-year-old daughter to Fiachra due to her calf issues, and he proved to be so professional from the outset. Fiachra took the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring that both my daughter and I fully understood the situation. He developed a tailored rehabilitation exercise plan, and we visited him every few weeks. During each appointment, he reviewed the exercises and made necessary adjustments. Thanks to his expertise, our daughter is now completely pain-free and has returned to competitive sports. We are immensely grateful to Fiachra for his support.

Fantastic experience: After trying multiple physios with no luck, Fiachra was the one who finally sorted me out. Brilliant at getting to the root of the problem, couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I went to Fiachra in Stamullen for a shoulder injury that had been bothering me for months, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him highly enough. From the first appointment, he carried out a thorough assessment and clearly explained what was causing the pain and how we were going to fix it. His approach was professional and personalised — not just short-term relief, but a proper plan to strengthen and stabilise my shoulder long-term. The exercises were straightforward, effective, and tailored specifically to me. He made sure I understood everything and was confident doing them correctly. What really stood out was how invested he was in my recovery. He tracked my progress, adjusted the treatment as needed, and kept me motivated throughout. My shoulder now feels stronger and more stable than it has in a long time. If you’re in Stamullen or the surrounding areas and need a physio, Fiachra is the person to go to. Top-class service and genuinely cares about getting you back to full strength. Thanks Fiachra, Regards Philip Adderley

Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience at The Physio Ward. Fiachra helped me recover from a tricky Achilles issue and was extremely thorough from the initial assessment right through to treatment and rehab. Everything was clearly explained, and I found the rehab area in the clinic a big plus — he brought me through the exercises each session and updated my home plan as I improved. My kids have also seen Sarah and Conor there for sports‑related injuries, and the care and outcomes have always been excellent. I’d highly recommend the clinic.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Sarah. I recently had my daughter in for physio after she had broken her foot. Sarah was patient and she explained everything to her so she understood, and walked her through all the different exercises, which made my daughter feel at ease.

Fantastic experience: I attended the Physio Ward, with Fiachra, for a foot injury. Fiachra was very professional and provided me with exercise programs, which helped to get me on the road to recovery. Very grateful for all the support and care. I would highly recommend the Physio Ward for any injuries.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending regular monthly visits with Fiachra for the past several years following a further relapse of prolapsed discs in my C-spine. They have become a beneficial part of my routine during the year and allow me to focus on actively working to improve my general health. He is a very knowledgeable individual and has encouraged me to take steps to avoid any future issues that may arise. We chat about many things away from the actual physiotherapy itself during my visits, and it’s always a pleasant atmosphere, occasionally having other people there who are starting out on their own career paths. Our appointment timetable is always fluidic enough to what suits us the best .

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Fiachra enough as a physio. He listens, plans and sets goals in recovery

Fantastic experience: Fiachra helped me recover from a Grade 1 hamstring tear and guided me through a structured return-to-play programme. He was very clear in explaining each stage of the rehab process and built my running and strength work progressively, which gave me confidence at every step. I’m now back training fully and feel strong again. I’d highly recommend him to anyone dealing with a sports injury.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Sarah for some time after surgery on my wrist. Her knowledge is unbelievable and has helped me so much in my recovery. It’s because of Sarah’s knowledge that I had a second surgery to fix a problem the first consultant didn’t find. I honestly can’t thank her enough!

Fantastic experience: Always find Physio Ward great. They are always able to fit you in and have no problem setting up follow up appointments. I had a very sort neck and got an appointment last minute and after 2 appointments I was back to normal I was very grateful! Thanks again to Fiachra

Fantastic experience: Very positive experience. Fiachra has a gift of honing in exactly to the cause of issues I had and when I follow the exercises I feel 100% better. Thanks

Fantastic experience: I had a really good experience with Fiachra after my shoulder operation. After each visit I felt improvement and confidence with my movements and the exercises given each time helped immensely. I would highly recommend the Physio Ward.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Connor for his expertise. He helped me a lot in recovering from a torn calf muscle during my handball practice. His expertise, combined with sports massage and strength exercises, strengthened my muscle and gave me more confidence in my recovery. Thanks, Connor!

Fantastic experience: I'm writing to wholeheartedly recommend Fiacra from the Physio Ward Stamullen as an exceptional physiotherapist. I presented with a suspect meniscus tear in my knee inwhich severely impacted my mobility and halted my running completely. I was in continuous pain day and night. Over a course of several months of treatment. Fiacras expert diagnosis and tailored planning he carefully assessed my condition and created a progressive, clear rehabilitation plan. Fiacra explained each step, managed set backs, provided constant motivation which was crucial for my recovery journey. The results speak for itself. I have been officially signed off with a full recovery and I have returned to running successfully thanks to Fiacra skill and dedication and professional care David

Fantastic experience: Fiachra is brilliant. I got a very warm welcome every time I came into the office. He made a great effort to not just understand my injury but me personally aswell. He helped me get back from Ankle surgery and back playing inter county hurling in no time. I couldn’t recommend Fiachra and his team enough.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Fiachra and the ward clinic physio , Fiachra was great I understood everything he was doing , came out of it feeling like new

Fantastic experience: We brought our 14 year old daughter to Fiachra after prolonged back issues. He was brilliant from the very first appointment. Fiachra explained everything so that both myself and my daughter understood. He then can up with plan of rehab exercises and we went to him every couple of weeks and each time he went through all the exercises and adjusted accordingly what needed to be. She is better equipped to deal with her injuries now than she ever was all due to Fiachra’s help. She is completely pain free again and back playing competitive sports again. We cannot thank Fiachra enough.

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience working with Fiachra. His knowledge and professionalism was demonstrated in his approach , guidance and tailored physio exercises which resulted in me making a full recovery.

Fantastic experience: Went to Fiachra a number of times after a shoulder dislocation and im glad to say that full mobility is restored without the need for surgery.

Fantastic experience: Ive been attending Fiachra Ward for a number of major issue's. Shoulder and back pain. Plus knee after replacement operation. I found him brilliant and very professional. With out HIS HIGH LEVEL OF OF TREATMENT I'd never be enjoying my life of cycling and work to this degree . Plus you couldn't meet a nicer down to earth guy. 5 out of 5 all the way. You won't be disappointed. Patrick Bentley

Fantastic experience: I had great results working recently with Sarah. She is invested in helping and highly professional all throughout the process of rehabilitating my shoulder.

Fantastic experience: Fiachra is an exceptional physio. He is knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares for long-term results. He takes the time to truly understand your injury properly. I would recommend him to anyone needing care.

Fantastic experience: I had pain in my left shoulder over the summer of 2025. I reported to Fiachra in the Autumn of that year. Fiachra very quickly got to the root of the problem and we put together a plan over several weeks to strengthen the areas of weakness. I'm very happy with the end results and my shoulder is back to full strength now.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to Fiachra on 3 separate occasions for 3 different injuries over the last 2 years and couldn’t recommend anyone more. From the first session on each occasion I always felt he was able to properly diagnose my injury and create an appropriate treatment plan and time line for recovery. Often when you attend a physio appointment it can be difficult to explain the threshold or sensation of pain that each injury brings but I felt like his background in sport and the questions he asked really helped break down those barriers to identify the route cause of the injury. From this he’s been able to provide really tailored rehab plans and exercises which have helped massively in treating my injuries and preventing them from reoccurring. I spent a lot of time on the sidelines last year with a hip/pelvic tendinitis injury and the specific pain I initially felt on diagnosis of the injury I was convinced I wouldn’t be able to play pain free again, however with a structured rehab plan and check ins Fiachra was able to not only fix the issue but prevent it from reoccurring through strengthening excercises which I’ve seen huge benefits of doing long term. I was immediately put at ease by his experience in sport and how he went about diagnosing and prescribing a plan of action for me. By far the best Physio I’ve been to!

Fantastic experience: Excellent professional service provided by Fichra in my recovery of a shoulder injury.He made my experience alot less painful and speedy . I'd highly recommend the physio ward for anyone's needs.

Fantastic experience: I visited Fiachra just after tearing my ACL in June of 2024. I couldn’t have been happier with service provided from the prehab preparing my body for surgery to the countless sessions regaining mobility, strength and trust in my knee. Even with a few set backs here and there Fiachra was always positive and went above and beyond and was always there for a chat when I had questions. He was always willing to accommodate me with late evening sessions. Having returned back to sport and gym without pain I couldn’t recommend Fiachra enough.

Fantastic experience: Ongoing and very painful tendonitis had made every day tasks very difficult. It took time to resolve but with Fiachras guidance and expertise the pain is gone and full functionality is back in my elbows, while.avoiding aggravating it further. Can't recommend Fiachra enough. Knowledgeable, professional and kind. Thanks Fiachra.

Fantastic experience: I had reason to attend The Physio Ward following a partial tear of my Achilles. From the initial consultation with Fiachra, I was given a clear road map to recovery & Fiachra gave me the necessary tools & rehab exercises in each subsequent session to gradually increase the load on my Achilles to bring about the necessary adaptations. I am happy to say that I am now back running pain free. Fiachra played a big role in my recovery & I found him to be very knowledgeable with an ability to explain/demonstrate the various rehab exercises in simple terms. I would highly recommend Fiachra & the team in The Physio Ward. Thanks again Fiachra. David Brady - Clonliffe Harriers

Fantastic experience: I attended physio with Fiachra for knee & shoulder pain. His attention to detail was very good. I was very happy with the outcome of these sessions. Thanks Fiachra.

Fantastic experience: I’ve seen Fiachra for both a medial ligament tear and a knee tendon tear. Each time, he got me back training quickly and safely, and gave me a clear plan to prevent the injury happening again. His strengthening program has really helped keep my knees strong and stable. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I came into Fiachra with a new knee injury that had just been sustained. After initial assessment Fiachra started the gradual process of rehab with each returning visit progressively getting more and more positive results from the injury. After the 3-4 month period he had me back playing fully pain free. I would happily recommend him for any issues someone may have, he was a pleasure to deal with!

Fantastic experience: Conor is an absolute angel! He helped me so much with a shoulder injury. He explains the exercises throughly and how the doing them will benefit the body. All with such kindness and a genuine positive manner. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: I was invited to join Meghan's pilates class due to presenting with lower back pain at the Physio. I'm delighted to say I'm now in my third block of classes! Reason for going back time after time? Improved posture, depleted back pain, strengthening of core muscles in those much needed areas of bum, tum and thighs! Most of all it's fantastic for stretching out your body, reducing stress and I sleep like a baby afterwards.. What's not to enjoy!. All this in a cozy setting with small class numbers. Meghan (and Conor!) deliver classes which are gentle yet challenging and you always feel the burn! Thoroughly enjoy it and highly recommend both. Well done!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Conor enough. I attended with a persistent knee injury and a new neck injury, both of which he rectified. My knee is the best it has been since I was a teenager. Conor provided a highly professional and knowledgeable service, while also being a good laugh at the same time!

Fantastic experience: I have been attending The Physio Ward for hip pain. Megan has been so helpful, informative and knowledgeable. I finally feel I'm on a road to sorting my hip pain. I started Pilates with her in The Physio Ward a few months ago and it has been brilliant. Its so comforting to know you are exercising with someone who knows and understands any issues you many have. It also a thoroughly enjoyable class, everyone is so friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: I came in with persistent lower back pain on my left side that was really affecting my swimming , cycling, martial arts training and ability to stay active for adventure races. The issue turned out to be related to hip mobility, and once we started working on that with specific exercises, things started to improve. The focus on technique and small details made a big difference, and I always felt like the reasoning behind each part of the rehab was clearly explained. I’ve noticed a big change not just in the pain but also in how I move and train now.. it’s hard work but at least it’s progress, thank you Fiachra.

Fantastic experience: Having had a nasty fall years ago which resulted in the discs in my lower back being pushed up against the nerves in my spine, I was in quite a bit of pain when I first attended Fiachra in The Physio Ward. I was met with a bright, fully equipped space for working through different exercises and there is also side rooms for other areas of focus. I went through all the issues I was having and Fiachra got to work on rehab for my lower back. We worked on core strength, different but safe stretches and always gradually building up strength not only in my back but knees and hips to get everything back aligned and working as it should. I can hand on heart say its the best money I've ever spent as the improvement to me is immeasurable. I now have huge confidence in my back and my abilities surrounding the initial issue. Fiachra is amazing at what he does and I would wholeheartedly recommend his practice

Fantastic experience: I went to Fiacra post lumbar surgery and went to PT sessions to help build my strength back. I went every week and Fiacra guided me on what I should and shouldn’t be doing and I really felt the benefits. His advise and facilities were top class, I’d highly recommend him and his facility for anyone with and back issues or post back surgery.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Physio Ward with my back last few yrs. Last yr I had a disc fusion, and went to see Fiachra once my consultant advised. I could not lift 2kg in beginning, could barely do any exercises. But with constant visits and exercise plans I gradually started to get my strength and mobility. Fiachra gave me plans to do at home and eventually I got to 20kg. .delighted. I am walking, cycling and still doin some weights( prob not as much as I should),but with no pain. I know at any stage I can touch base and check in to see how i am doing. I was so lucky and grateful to have physio so close to me as driving was hard for few weeks.

Fantastic experience: My 15yo daughter just finished up with Conor after a number of sessions for an old shoulder injury. Can't recommend him enough. Super professional, a great attitude, and a huge bank of knowledge. It's a pleasure to deal with Conor. She hasn't had any further issues since starting the physio sessions and will continue to work on the exercises as advised. A fantastic asset to The Physio Ward!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this place for all your Physio needs.Was looked after by Fiachra whom was very professional and massively helped me with my hip inflammation from running, which healed completely. Great guidance on exercise and nutrition for the body. Excellent advice, very helpful and very friendly.

Fantastic experience: Have been working with Conor the last couple of months after a serious accident. Can only give a 5 star recommendation due to his knowledge, professionalism and his drive to help clients recover and reach their goals. Nothing but a pleasure working with Conor who went above and beyond and was a great help. Highly, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Fiachra was very helpful and knowledgeable in getting me back playing football after tearing my calf. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I attended The Physio Ward for a back condition. Fiachra was extremely professional in his approach and had me on the road to recovery in no time. I would highly recommend The Physio Ward.

Fantastic experience: As someone sidelined by an ACL injury, Fiachra was instrumental in my recovery. His personalized exercises and clear guidance accelerated my return to sports. Fiachra's expertise, coupled with genuine care and constant communication, made a daunting journey manageable. His support was pivotal in not just healing my knee, but also in restoring my confidence. I highly recommend Fiachra to anyone seeking a dedicated and skilled physiotherapist.

Fantastic experience: I've had neck trouble for years that I never addressed. I went to see Fiachra and he was so incredibly helpful! He gave me exercises to do at home to help relieve the pain which is working really well. Very patient and knowledgeable physio, will definitely be back

Fantastic experience: Finally went to see someone for a chronic knee injury, and delighted with my experience with Fiachra. Very professional, knowledgeable, and personable. Would strongly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend visiting the The Physio Ward for any sports injuries. Fiachra helped me build back the strength and stability in my knee with excercise programmes, gradually increasing intensity and brought me back to a satisfactory level of fitness to a point where I can run and play sport again. Very grateful.

Fantastic experience: Having had post surgery physiotherapy on my knees, I would have no hesitation in recommending Stamullen physiotherapy and sports injury clinic.
