What I treat
Most people come with pain that has lasted a few weeks and is not getting better on its own. The first visit finds the cause. Then we work on it together, with treatment in the room and exercises for home.
Sports injuries
Sprains, strains and knee or ankle problems from GAA, running or the gym. The goal is getting you back to training without the injury coming back.
After surgery
Rehab after a knee or hip replacement, ACL repair or a broken bone. I work with your surgeon's plan and adjust it week by week.
Shoulder and joint pain
Frozen shoulder, tendon problems and arthritis in the hip or knee. Treatment eases the pain, exercises keep the joint moving.
Balance and strength
For older patients who feel unsteady or have had a fall. Simple exercises that make stairs, walking and getting up easier.
Dry needling
Fine needles in tight muscle knots, used alongside other treatment where it helps. Only if you are comfortable with it.

About me
I'm Aoife, a chartered physiotherapist. I worked in hospital and sports clinics for twelve years before opening Fernlea in Dundalk.
I run the practice on my own on purpose. You see me every time, I remember your history, and you never have to explain your knee to a new person.
If physio is not the right treatment for you, I will tell you at the first appointment and suggest who to see instead.

Common questions
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No. You can book directly. If your insurance asks for a referral, check your policy before the first visit.
What should I bring?
Comfortable clothes that let me see the area we are treating, for example shorts for a knee problem. Bring any scans or letters from your doctor.
Will my health insurance pay for it?
Most plans pay back part of each visit, up to a yearly limit. How much depends on your plan, so check with your insurer. You get a receipt after every appointment.
How long is an appointment?
The first one is 45 minutes, follow-ups are 30 minutes. Please arrive five minutes early for your first visit.
What if I need to cancel?
Let me know at least 24 hours before. Then there is no charge.
