What Our Clients Think
Cormac Coyne
LONDON COUNTY GAA PLAYER
“I had been suffering from pain in my knee as a result of my high intensity training that I am required to do. Daine not only correctly diagnosed and helped treat my knee, he also shared loads of valuable exercises I should do to recover and also continue my training program to strengthen the right muscles to prevent any further injuries. Polite, professional and always very friendly. Highly recommended”

He has kept my body injury free which in return has allowed me to perform at my best in competition. His knowledge and skills are the best in the business. Not only do I feel great after each session but I have an overall better understanding of how my body works and what I need to do in order to improve as an athlete”
Rory Kelly
GOALKEEPER LETTERKENNY ROVERS FC
“Working with Daine over the past two seasons has allowed me to address and sufficiently recover from old injuries and aches. Rather than just treating my symptoms, Daine would instead look at what was causing them and then provide a treatment plan that has then allowed me to continue training, playing and improving all aspects of my overall performance without worrying about being sore for days afterwards. Would highly recommend.
