    Really great experience with Eimear at Via Physio, thank you! She was friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly knows her stuff. She took the time to understand what was going on and gave me treatment and exercises that genuinely helped. I noticed a real immediate improvement after seeing her and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a physio in Dublin.

    I have been struggling with an injury to my leg for years. I had just assumed running wasn't for me. I went to see Eimear a few months ago and with her expert guidance I have just run my first half marathon !

    Huge thanks to Eimear for an incredible physiotherapy session. I’ve been dealing with a frustrating issue for a while, and her detail-oriented approach helped finally identify what was going wrong. Not only is she highly professional, but she is also super nice and genuinely supportive, which made all the difference. I left feeling confident and well taken care of!

    I saw Eimear in VIA for physiotherapy yesterday. She listened to what I had to say, and with a thorough examination was able to diagnose immediately what my problem was. She did some work on my knee and gave me a set of exercises to do to help resolve the problem. Even today, one day later, I can notice an improvement. I would totally recommend Eimear to anyone who would be thinking of attending her clinic.

    As a first timer to a physiotherapist, I found Eimear attentive, caring and supportive. She attended to my issue and came up with a set of exercises suitable to my needs. Highly recommended. Thank you Eimear.

    I can’t recommend Eimear highly enough. From the very first appointment, Eimear took the time to listen, thoroughly assess my injury, and explain everything in a way that was easy to understand. The treatment has been professional, personalised, and incredibly effective. Not only has Eimear helped reduce my pain, but she’s also given me the knowledge and exercises to prevent the issue from coming back. Eimear is friendly, approachable, and genuinely cares about getting you back to doing what you love. If you’re looking for a physiotherapist who is knowledgeable, supportive, and gets results, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

    I’ve seen Eimear for multiple injuries over the years, her thorough approach to assessment and excellent way of explaining what is going on and how we can improve it is second to none! She also has this incredible way of making you want to actually do your home exercises!!

    Eimear is an excellent, attentive physiotherapist. I was having massive issues with back pain and sciatica whilst training for the marathon, and Eimear looked after me so well. She also provided me with an abundance of exercises to warm up/help relieve any pain that I may suffer from. Amazing all-round!

What to expect

Common questions.

  • What does the first session entail?

    An assessment first — a discussion plus a physical exam to identify what's actually going on. From there we agree a treatment plan together, anchored to your goals. You'll leave with a clear diagnosis, a plan, and any exercises we covered.

  • What should I wear?

    Comfortable clothing that gives me access to the area I'm assessing — gym gear is perfect.

  • What should I bring?

    Anything that helps me understand the injury — referral letters, radiology reports, scan images, the trainers or boots you train in. If you've got it, bring it.

  • Do I need a referral?

    No. As a chartered, CORU-registered physiotherapist I see private patients directly — no GP referral needed.

  • Can I claim from my private health insurance?

    Yes. My services are claimable with the major Irish private health insurance providers — VHI, Laya, Irish Life, Aviva. I'll provide an itemised receipt and clients claim the rebate themselves.
