Access to Expert Physiotherapists with Video Consultations
The Aim of Video Consultations
Our team here at compass physio have been using Physiotherapy video consultations for the past couple of years with a broad range of injuries.
This time has helped us become the go to clinic for those who have had failed outcomes previously.

Yes, an online session can help you to get the same outcome and release your muscle tightness, only via a different way than you normally would. We can take you through a range of movements and create an exercise program that empowers you to be in control and feel great.
How can a physiotherapist treat me online?
You may be wondering how online physiotherapy consultations actually work, because the general perception of what a physiotherapist does is hands on manual therapy work with you, the patient, on the bed.
As Physiotherapists we still do hands on manual techniques but the expertise we have in assessing movement and proving corrections and rehabilitation achieve the majority of the outcomes we would achieve in a face to face session.
We can empower you to be pain free long term through our structured plans and have worked with clients throughout Ireland achieving this.
