Áine is a miracle worker! I couldn’t recommend her highly enough! As a long distance nut, I was devastated when my knee started to give me trouble and pull me up on my runs. However Áine’s treatments, advice & exercise programmes helped strengthen it up and get me back on the road. I’ve just completed a 50 mile challenge pain and injury free and am currently training for the Dublin Marathon with no issues.

As a new mother, my Public Health Nurse recommended I go to Áine’s Pilates classes, to help get me back to feeling somewhat normal again! I found Áine’s knowledge and exercises to be extremely helpful and beneficial. As a mother herself, she is acutely aware of the body post-partum and I really can’t stress how she has helped me get back to being my old self!

I have recommended Aine widely to friends and family. Her mixture of friendliness & professionalism is a huge encouragement and comfort. Aine bends over backwards to give explanations, help and practical support. Given first class advice on how to manage with condition outside sessions. Thank you so much!

I had my first visit here today as I had severe lower back pain. I have been to numerous different Chiropractic and Physiotherapy places and this is the best by far. I was seen to very quickly, given excellent treatment and advice and informed about different little things I could do to help solve my issue. I honestly could not recommend this place enough!
