    Just wondering if people here, who have gone to a physio with a lifting injury, found the physio understood lifting, and how to deal with the injury?

    I haven't been able to find one who seems to understand or is knowledgable about lifting.

    Physios and strength consultants. Both Mark and Orla are CSCS's I think (certified strength and conditioning coach).

    They've a great understanding of the different lifts and they treat the cause of the problem, not the related symptom.

    Cheers Hanley, looks like I may have to go all the way to Dublin.

    Glad to see you say they treat the cause and not the symptom, all i seem to have got was the opposite.

    Sorry, didn't realise you weren't there. Where are you based?

    There's another very good guy out in the blanch/clonsilla direction.

    No worries Hanley, I'm in Cork, but after 9 months with two problems that are really holding up progress and driving me nuts, at this stage i'm willing to go where ever is necessary to sort the problem.

    Oh... miles away so. Find out who the cork GAA team physio is, or even better, the Munster rugby squad.

    Or if you want the best physical therapist in the world let alone Ireland head across to Limerick to Gerard Hartman (although he is in Beijing with the British Olympic squad at the moment). Carl Lewis, Haile Gebresellasie, Sean Og O'Hailpin and many more will vouch for him!

    I agree but you'll be months on a waiting list if he decides to accept your application.
