"I have been seeing 'Athlete Matters' for a while now, mainly as an effective method of helping to prevent injuries during the high volume of training and racing I do. I now see my visits to 'Athlete Matters' as an important part of my whole training programme. 'Athlete Matters' are very professional, friendly and willing to go the extra mile when a visit is required at short notice."

"I have competed internationally at athletics and multisports since school but was involved in a bad cycling accident, during the World Duathlon Championships in Belgium in 2004. This left me with residual problems, which had prevented me reaching my pre accident performance levels for two and a half years. 'Athlete Matters', have been of invaluable assistance helping me on the road back to recovery. Since they have been treating me, I have now broken my personal best times and wouldn't hesitate in recommending
them. "

I first used Athlete Matters after a road bike accident in 2006.  I needed quick rehabilitation to enable me to continue to compete.  They were very thorough with their examination and quickly diagnosed the problem.  After 6 treatments and a series of strengthening exercises I was able to train again and soon my knee was back to normal.  I was so impressed with the treatment and advice I received that when I decided to enter my first marathon I knew that I would need their help.  I am prone to running injuries and using Athlete Matters for injury prevention, support and guidance has enabled me to progress through the training required.  I now consider physiotherapy as a preventative measure rather than a cure.  I fully recommend using Athlete Matters and I will be continuing to visit once I return to open water swimming.

"Following years of being bounced from Physios to Specialists,
Duncan has helped guide me back to competition. He has
rehabilitated me through a complex series of injuries when I
thought I would no longer be able to compete and now with his
continued involvement, I can look to the future with optimism of
reaching my potential."

Professional Track Cyclist, VC Raphael

"Having recently undergone two spinal procedures in the last three years I was in desperate need of top rehabilitation in order to prevent the same injury occurring again and again. Immediately on arriving at the clinic athlete matters were able to recognise the problem, which no other specialists seemed able to do. Bringing to my attention the root cause, tailoring a custom designed plan, which they innovated directly to my sport, professional track cycling, this in turn enabled me after many years to begin properly healing, completely changing my life for the better. Many thanks Duncan ‘you’re a genius’; I look forward to working more with you later in the year to prevent any further injuries."

"I hold Athlete Matters in high regard, not least because of theirexpertise in diagnosing problems but also in their ability to provide advice on how to adapt your routines so that you can get back to training as quickly as possible after an injury. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

"Although I have only been a competative athlete for 4 years, I have quickly come to realise how important it is to have a good team around you, to guide you in the right direction. Athlete Matters provides that guidance.
In terms of training, it has helped me become an all round better athlete and to race competitively at National and International levels, and I now consider them to be a huge part of my development as an athlete. I would not hesitate to recomend them to anyone !
Athlete Matters , its about time someone understood that!"

"For the diagnosis, treatment and prevention
 of soft tissue and structural sports injuries,
in my opinion Athlete Matters set the
standard to which others aspire." 		 

Gerry O'Neill
 (Irish International distance runner)
"As a competitive athlete for the last 25 years, few things in life are more important to me than my sport. Having visited many practitioners in this time, I entrust all of my physiotherapy and rehabilitation requirements to athlete matters as their depth of knowledge, quality of care and empathy in dealing with my various conditions was simply unsurpassed.The only physiotherapist I have ever encountered who didn't tell me immediately to stop running. For that reason alone, athlete matters are definitely worth a visit if you're serious about your  sport."
