    Sorry if this has been asked before but the search function is still down.

    Any of you know where I could get in touch with a physio, preferably one based in the college? I royally fcuked up my arm at training last night so I think I need to get it checked out.

    Thanks.

    There's Physios down at DCU sports grounds (behind the esso on Ballymun rd.) who I found to be very good and can definitely recommend. http://www.exwellmedical.ie/Home/tabid/504/language/en-GB/Default.aspx They have a student discount as well.

    There is also the student physios who operate out of house 19 college park. attclinics@gmail.com I can't recommended them however as they completely misdiagnosed me and gave me a treatment which kept me injured for months more than necessary.

    Google also provides this result which may be worth inquiring about. http://www.dcu.ie/students/health/physiotherapy.shtml

    Hope you get better soon.

    i found the student athletic therapists to be very good! they offer a free service as they are only learning so will naturally make mistakes.

    AFAIK they are supervised in that clinic by some of the same people that work in exwell. so you pretty much get the reasonably the same service (minus the €40 charge)

    In case any of you are looking for one in the future, the guys I ended up going to down in the sports ground were very helpful. Granted I'm going to be making more visits there in the future than I had hoped so the cash is going to take a hit, but it was a really good workout, definitely recommend them.
