Hello, we’re Mid West Physio!
At Mid West Physio, we love physiotherapy. And we love helping people to get better. Our job is a privilege and one we take very seriously. Our goal, always, is to deliver top quality care to our patients, using the very best skills, knowledge and treatment methods.
There is very little that we haven’t seen or treated, and, with so many specialties under the one roof, you can trust that the right physiotherapist for you is here. We’ll take great care of you and use all of our experience and knowledge to get you to where you want to be, back doing the things you love best.
Our Focus
Our focus is always on excellence. We have a great team of physiotherapists, each of whom is an expert in their field. Our specialties include:
Sports Injuries
Sports are our passion at Mid West Physiotherapy. We know how vital it is to stay fit and strong, and just how frustrating it can feel to be sidelined by injury. We’ll pull out all the stops to get you back playing the sport you love, focusing on getting you strong and minimising the risk of injury recurrence.
Back & Neck Pain
Back and neck pain are the most common problems presented at our physiotherapy clinic. Our expert physiotherapists are specialists in treating back and neck pain. They will help you to get to the root of your pain, and will give you treatment programme to help you feel better and stay better.
Other Pain & Injuries
Soft tissue injuries such as muscle, ligament and tendon injuries, are also common presentations at our clinic. We tailor our approach to the individual. Together, we figure out the root of the problem and develop a personal treatment plan that will improve comfort, increase strength and reduce the risk of injury recurrence.
Foot & Ankle Problems
Mid West Physiotherapy offers specialist foot and ankle physiotherapy at our physiotherapy clinic in Castletroy, Limerick, with physiotherapist Shane Brennan. Foot and ankle physiotherapy is a specialist area of physiotherapy, dealing with pain and dysfunction arising from issues in the foot or ankle.
Orthotics
Orthotics work by adjusting the loads through our foot and ankle. Their primary function is to reduce pain, improve comfort & enhance our ability to walk, work or exercise. They achieve this by directing load through the bigger, stronger muscle groups and joints, and relieving load on the smaller, weaker areas.
Rehab After Surgery
In many cases, surgery is just the beginning of the recovery process; in order to optimise the speed and success of your recovery, a careful post-surgical rehabilitation programme will be required. Our expert Physiotherapists are highly skilled and experienced in treating post-operative patients.
Vestibular Rehabilitation (Vertigo)
Vestibular rehabilitation is an exercise-based treatment programme which is specifically designed to reduce issues relating to imbalance and dizziness, commonly known as “vertigo”. Rachel Allen, vestibular rehabiltation physiotherapist, specialises in the assessment and treatment of vertigo and dizzy symptoms.
Parkinsons disease
Parkinson’s disease is a neurological condition that affects people’s movements. It is caused by a decrease in a chemical called dopamine in the body. It is not known why some people get this drop in dopamine. People with Parkinson’s may have a tremor; difficulty walking, stepping or balancing; or slower movements.
Lymphoedema
Lymphodema occurs when the lymphatic system is is damaged by surgery, cancer radiotherapy or other conditions. Sinéad Cobbe is a highly experienced expert Chartered Physiotherapist and trained specialist in the management of lymphoedema.
Falls Management Programmes
Falls management programmes can help anyone with decreased mobility or balance. Physiotherapists are experts at evidence-based falls prevention. The HSE recommends people who have fallen be assessed for falls prevention. Two-thirds of Irish people who have had a fall, have another fall within six months.
We are dedicated to helping you to feel better and recover faster so that you can enjoy your best quality of life.
