Though a range of factors and conditions contribute to leg pain, at Sandycove Physiotherapy our clinicians are trained to diagnose the precise cause of your leg pain. Whether the pain is caused by an impingement from the sciatic nerve, bursitis or arthritis in the hip joint.

Our therapists will check damage to tissue, muscle imbalance and joint mobility, identifying the precise factors contributing to your leg pain and the most effective method to recovery. Treatment will likely consist of mobilising the joints and restoring muscle balance with a specific care\ exercise plan to both correct and strengthen muscle form in the leg.
