Galway - Sports Physio Recommnendation?
Fri, 27/01/2012 - 09:10
Hi Folks,
I'm looking for a sports physio in Galway. I have a problem with the one of my my big toes which is preventing me from running. An X-ray has ruled out a break or stress fracture so looking at tendon issue I reckon.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

She is in baily point physiotherapy and sports clinic in Salthill. I'm not sure of her surname think it's streloff or stirliof. I have her number at home if anyone wants it but I'm sure u can google it anyways

Hi ska_73
Out of the all the physios ive been to id highly recommend Adrian Craddock. Based out by Claregalway, has treated me for a couple of running related injuries in the past and each time has put me back on the road in no time, successfully!

Hi, I can personally recommend Darren Macfarlane, he has a clinic on Abbeygate Street, he knows his stuff and seems to treat alot of sports related injuries, if you google him you will get his number.

@chartered physiotherapist - could you maybe outline the differences for people who may not be aware of the distinction between chartered / unchartered physios, sports therapists etc?

Chartered physiotherapist are medical trained, have completed a full time 4-5 year physiotherapy degree in either UCD,Trinity,UL,royal college of surgeons or in UK.
Chartered physiotherapist work alongside doctors/specialists and in hospital setting aswell as private practise.
Sports therapists/massage therapists/physical therapist are not the above.

Sports Therapists / Physical Therapists have also completed several years of study, it's a little unfair to imply that they are not suitably qualified.

I can second the recommendation re Trish Strlelioff. Have had a few problems that she has sorted out for me including knees and back. She's very accomodating and very professional and has huge experience working with athletes.
