APC PHYSIO & SPORTS CLINIC Pike Road, County Cork

"After having a disc removed from my neck and previous shoulder surgery I was in agony between muscle pain and nerve pain when I first attended Steven Gilmore at APC Physio. After having attended other physios and a Pain Management Consultant I thought I was stuck with this pain for life until I met Steven. I was waiting for MRI results when I first attended APC and without seeing the results Steven was able to diagnose what was wrong and made out a plan and that along with a small bit of dry needling started working very quickly. Steven told me that he hoped it should take between 5 or 6 visits and true to his word I attended APC 6 times. Within a month of attending APC I was able to come off nerve pain medication. I'm now pain free thanks to Steven. I'm now back to work after nearly two years off. I thought I would at best get back to work and have to work in an office for the rest of my time as my job is quiet physical but thanks to Steven I'm back to work in full capacity. I'm back playing badminton which I hadn't been able to play in 6yrs. I would highly recommend Steven Gilmore and APC Physio Fermoy. Catherine at APC is amazing also great to check in with you to see how your getting on and very efficient. Thanks Steven and APC Fermoy I will be forever Greatfull."

"APC Physio and Sports Clinic totally changed my life. Online teaching and crammed archival work had taken its toll on my body, and I relied on paracetamol to relieve daily back and shoulder pain. They have an excellent team of physiotherapists. Luke was very professional and identified the weaknesses in my body at the first appointment. He provided me with exercises to help strengthen my muscles. Every week I felt my body become stronger as my pain decreased. I no longer rely on paracetamol for muscle pain. I wouldn’t go anywhere else; they are the best."

"Pat was excellent in identifying the source of my shoulder injury which at had stopped me from swimming & just about everything else. He worked me through a focused recovery program to bring back my full movement range, eased pain with dry needling, then to gradually and safely increase the power I could apply. (Which was only at 40% of my left shoulder when measured) I had injured it skiing 2 years before and was constantly minding it always aware of it and in mild to severe discomfort impacting my sleep. Now I am back to full training with BTC. Gladly not even aware of my shoulder now. Thank you."

"I took my son to see Patrick with a knee injury. He put us on the right track with a great exercise program. All his advice was spot on and most importantly, easy for an 11 year old to understand and practice by himself. Thankfully he is back to full fitness and enjoying all his sporting activities again."

"I was in an absolute heap physically when I first attended APC Physio. Limited mobility, migraine, neck and back pain the lot..Going for a walk hurt. Getting out of bed hurt. Driving hurt. Standing hurt. I was shuffling around the place in a lot of pain and feeling low. Luke Gibbons was amazing , he listened carefully and came up with a very targeted plan. I felt an improvement from the first session and was given very simple exercises to do at home so that I could start helping myself. I am now completely pain free and very active....I feel like a new person. During my sessions I was also very aware that Luke wanted me moving forward in my treatment and at a stage where I could mostly manage my condition myself. This gave me great hope as at one stage early on I felt that I would be in physio for the rest of my life. The only thing Im sorry about is that I put up with pain for so long and didn't go in for treatment sooner! So thanks a million Luke for all the hard work in getting me up and moving and swimming and dancing and running .I am evening thinking about going back horse riding ."
