At Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic in Limerick, we treat a wide range of physical and musculoskeletal conditions for patients across Limerick, Clare, and Tipperary. Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, or improving strength after surgery, Paul, our experienced Chartered Physiotherapist, provides expert care tailored to your needs. Below are some of the most common conditions we help patients recover from every day.
Low Back Pain & Sciatica
Back pain is one of the most frequent reasons people visit our clinic. Whether it’s caused by a disc bulge, muscle spasm, or poor posture, Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic helps patients from Limerick and the wider Mid-West regain comfort and confidence in movement. Paul identifies the root cause, relieves tension, and builds strength through targeted rehabilitation — restoring natural, pain-free mobility.
Neck Pain & Whiplash
Neck pain can arise from poor posture, long hours at a desk, or trauma such as whiplash. We focus on reducing stiffness, improving neck stability, and relieving headaches often linked to cervical tension. Our combination of manual therapy, posture retraining, and tailored exercises ensures long-term results for clients across Limerick, Clare, and Tipperary.
Postural Dysfunction
Modern lifestyles often lead to rounded shoulders and forward-head posture. These changes can cause pain, fatigue, and movement restriction. At Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic, we use posture correction programs to retrain muscles and restore balance — perfect for students, office workers, and anyone looking to move more efficiently and comfortably.
Shoulder Rotator Cuff Rehab
Shoulder injuries are among the most common conditions treated at our clinic. Paul provides structured Rotator Cuff Rehabilitation for tears, tendinopathy, or post-surgical repair. Treatment includes manual therapy, strengthening, and progressive loading to rebuild stability and function. Patients across Limerick and Clare trust our evidence-based approach to restore full shoulder strength and mobility safely.
Frozen Shoulder
Also known as adhesive capsulitis, this condition causes progressive stiffness and pain. Our therapy focuses on gentle mobilisation, pain control, and targeted stretching to restore motion. With early intervention at Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic, most patients experience faster recovery and reduced night pain.
Shoulder Impingement
Pain when lifting your arm or reaching overhead is a classic sign of impingement. We assess posture, rotator cuff strength, and shoulder blade control to identify the true cause. With specific exercise progressions, most patients experience lasting relief without injections or surgery.
Tennis Elbow & Golfer’s Elbow
Repetitive strain or gripping tasks can inflame the tendons of the elbow. We use hands-on therapy, eccentric strengthening, and ergonomic advice to restore function quickly. Our clients across Limerick and Tipperary — from tradespeople to office workers — see excellent results with our personalised tendon rehabilitation.
Carpal Tunnel & Wrist Pain
Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the hands often stems from nerve compression or overuse. We provide targeted exercises, ergonomic education, and nerve-glide techniques to ease symptoms and prevent recurrence — helping you return to pain-free work and daily activities.
Hip Pain & Gluteal Tendinopathy
Outer hip pain is often due to tendon overload or bursitis. Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic offers a complete rehabilitation approach — reducing inflammation, improving hip strength, and retraining how you walk and stand. Early treatment prevents chronic pain and keeps you mobile.
Total Hip Replacement Rehab
After hip surgery, guided physiotherapy is essential. Paul designs structured Total Hip Replacement Rehabilitation programmes that progress from gentle mobility and swelling control to strengthening, balance, and walking retraining. We coordinate closely with your surgeon’s protocol to ensure safe, confident recovery for clients across Limerick, Clare, and Tipperary.
Total Knee Replacement Rehab
Our Total Knee Replacement Rehabilitation programmes help patients regain strength, range, and independence after surgery. Paul focuses on early movement, scar care, and progressive exercises to rebuild stability and endurance. With consistent physiotherapy, most clients return to daily activities faster and with less stiffness.
Knee Pain & Patellofemoral Syndrome
Knee pain can develop from poor alignment, muscle imbalance, or overuse. Through biomechanical assessment and personalised exercise plans, we help patients reduce pain, improve leg strength, and move more confidently — whether it’s climbing stairs, walking, or returning to sport.
ACL & Meniscus Injuries
Knee ligament or cartilage injuries require structured rehabilitation. Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic offers complete ACL and meniscus injury rehab — restoring joint stability, coordination, and sport readiness. Many clients in Limerick and Clare avoid repeat injuries through proper progression and education.
Ankle Sprains & Instability
We help patients recover from acute and recurrent ankle sprains by improving strength, balance, and proprioception. This prevents re-injury and promotes lasting stability for runners, footballers, and active individuals throughout the Mid-West.
Achilles Tendinopathy
Persistent heel or Achilles pain is often due to overload or tightness. Our approach combines deep-tissue therapy, shock absorption advice, and progressive strengthening to restore tendon health. Early intervention prevents chronic issues and keeps you active.
Plantar Fasciitis & Heel Pain
Morning heel pain or soreness after standing can signal plantar fasciitis. Using foot scanning, gait analysis, and custom orthotics, Paul designs a complete recovery plan to relieve pressure and restore healthy foot mechanics. We’ve helped countless clients across Limerick and Clare walk pain-free again.
Hip & Knee Osteoarthritis
Arthritis doesn’t mean giving up activity. Physiotherapy improves strength, joint mobility, and confidence — often delaying or avoiding surgery altogether. Paul’s joint-care programs empower patients to stay mobile, reduce stiffness, and enjoy an active lifestyle across the Mid-West.
IT Band Syndrome & Runner’s Knee
Runners and cyclists often suffer from outer knee pain due to IT band friction. We correct biomechanics, stretch tight structures, and strengthen stabilisers to restore pain-free running form. Proper assessment ensures you stay active without recurring flare-ups.
Shin Splints
Pain along the inner shin is common among runners and field-sport players. Paul identifies the cause — whether it’s training errors, footwear, or biomechanical weakness — and builds a stepwise plan to heal tissue and safely return to full performance.
Hamstring & Calf Strains
Sudden or chronic muscle strains respond best to guided physiotherapy. We use a combination of hands-on treatment, progressive loading, and return-to-sport conditioning to restore flexibility and power. Athletes from Limerick, Clare, and Tipperary trust us to get them back to sport stronger than before.
Groin Strains & Adductor Pain
Common in GAA, soccer, and rugby, groin pain can linger if not rehabilitated correctly. Our targeted strengthening and stability work rebuilds control through the pelvis and hips, preventing reinjury and improving overall athletic performance.
Post-Fracture & Immobilisation Rehab
After a fracture or cast removal, joints often become stiff and weak. Paul provides progressive rehabilitation to restore mobility, coordination, and confidence. We liaise with your consultant or GP to ensure your recovery stays on track.
Arthritis & Joint Stiffness
For clients with arthritis, physiotherapy helps maintain independence and reduce reliance on medication. Through tailored exercise, gentle mobilisation, and education, we help you move better, manage pain naturally, and stay active for longer.
Chronic Pain & Fibromyalgia
Paul takes a holistic approach to managing chronic pain conditions, combining gentle movement therapy, pacing education, relaxation techniques, and strength building. Many clients across Limerick and Tipperary report reduced fatigue, better sleep, and improved daily function through our supportive programs.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
After orthopaedic surgery, rehabilitation is vital for recovery. We provide individualised plans for rotator cuff repair, knee or hip replacement, ligament repair, or spinal surgery — helping you regain mobility, strength, and confidence safely.
Sports Injuries
Whether you play GAA, rugby, soccer, or run recreationally, Hospital Physio & Sports Injury Clinic offers expert assessment and treatment for all sports injuries. From ankle sprains to muscle tears, we help athletes of all levels return to training safely and efficiently.
Neurological & Balance Rehabilitation
We assist clients recovering from neurological conditions such as stroke or nerve injury. Our programs focus on coordination, balance, and mobility — improving confidence and independence for clients throughout the Mid-West region.
