About Life Fit Physio

Life Fit Physio is a physiotherapy practice based in Ballygarvan, Cork. The clinic provides physiotherapy assessment and treatment for a range of musculoskeletal conditions, including joint, muscle, ligament, and tendon-related issues, as well as back and neck pain, sports injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, and chronic pain presentations.

The practice is led by a Chartered Physiotherapist and CORU-registered practitioner who also holds a background in nutritional science. The clinician completed a Master’s degree in Physiotherapy and has gained experience across a variety of clinical settings, including work within the NHS and private practice.

Life Fit Physio provides a range of services alongside physiotherapy, including shockwave therapy for stubborn injuries, movement-based rehabilitation programmes, physio-led bike fitting, metabolic gas analysis, and structured exercise and personal training services. These services support both injury management and performance-focused outcomes.

Treatment approaches include manual therapy, shockwave therapy, soft tissue techniques, dry needling and exercise-based rehabilitation programmes tailored to individual clinical needs.  The use of an exercise prescription app (Physitrack) for the patient to use at home leads to a greater exercise compliancy rate.  A biopsychosocial approach is also used to support recovery and long-term management.

I have completed 5 sessions of Shockwave Therapy for Plantar Fasciitis with John. I had a chronic condition that stopped me running for a year and caused me pain on a daily basis, leaving me unable to walk long distances and walking with a limp most days. From my first session to my last, there was continuous improvement in my condition. With the shockwave therapy along with the prescribed physio therapy I was able to make a full and lasting recovery from a chronic condition. I wholeheartedly recommend.

My last visit with John, was an achilles issue we went down the road of shock wave therapy and I noticed a significant difference with each visit.

Thank you so much for leaving the review and delighted you got a result from the shockwave therapy alongside the rehab. This TendonFit clinic which uses radial shockwave for stubborn persistent tendon issues is something that I am looking to expand for the winter and into next year.

I had an excellent experience with Bike Fit Physio. The whole process was professional, thorough, and clearly explained from start to finish. The attention to detail gave me real confidence in the adjustments made to my bike. I would highly recommend Bike Fit Physio to anyone looking for a professional and high-quality bike fitting experience.
