Testimonials

  • "I first saw Declan when I was struggling to get through full basketball practices due to a pain in my foot. After a thorough assessment, strengthening exercises and shockwave therapy, I was pain free and ready to compete at the European Championships the following month. Declan has been a key factor in keeping me fit & healthy"

    Michelle

  • "I was involved in a rugby tackle that left me with a serious knee injury. The surgery involved ACL & MCL reconstructions as well as meniscus repairs. I had such a long road to recovery, with Declan being a critical part in my return to sport. Declan encouraged me every step of the way and amazingly, I am back playing rugby, hunting in the hills and skiing the slopes"

    Benjamin

  • "I sustained a dislocated shoulder during a rugby tackle, which required surgery. Declan guided me through my rehab, which took place both in the gym and on the pitch. Before returning to rugby, I completed 'Return to Sport' testing, demonstrating that I was physically and psychologically ready. Thanks to Declan, I am now back playing rugby at a higher level than before"

    Hugh

  • "I first saw Declan after I had torn my MCL, wakesurfing in early December. I gave him the near impossible task of getting me ski ready for my trip to Canada at the end of January. When the end of January rolled around, I had full confidence that my knee was strong enough to withstand the demands of the skiing. I had no issues on my ski holiday"

    Sarah

  • "I saw Declan for a foot injury that was mis-diagnosed elsewhere a few times. Declan diagnosed it, referred me for an MRI, did progressive strengthening and now I'm back running stronger than I've felt for years and truly believing I can reach my best and beyond. I cannot recommend Declan enough for foot & ankle injuries"

    Robin

  • "Dec is an incredibly realistic, practical and proficient physio. I was very lucky to stumble upon him the week before I tore my knee in Jiu Jitsu. His diagnosis was spot on and my rehab was so successful that I was back on the mats and pitch in rapid succession"

    Riana

  • "I found your service excellent and would have no hesitation in recommending you to my family and friends if they ever require physiotherapy. So delighted to be back running again! Thanks Dec!"

    Malindi

  • "I honestly cannot recommend Declan at Buan Physio enough. He is a true expert in his field. After my 2nd avulsion fracture to my ankle (and many, many sprains) I started physio with Declan. My previous experience after my first fracture was very basic and with a physio who gave me an exercise programme with little support. My experience with Declan was completely different. He guided me through my recovery. Thanks so much Declan."

    Lisa

  • "Declan correctly diagnosed a bone stress injury which had not been identified by a physio elsewhere. After thorough analysis, he provided rehab by way of a strengthening and mobility programme for my time off running and for my return to running programme. This brought me safely back to the sport without any issues. Declan is professional and a pleasure to deal with. I can thoroughly recommend Buan Physio."

    Chris

  • "Declan is always very professional and thorough. With his guidance and dedication my daughter who had a torn ACL and reconstruction was back to full sports in 10 months which is an amazing achievement. I can’t recommend Buan Physio enough!"

    Nikki

  • "Declan was great and really helped me recover from a hamstring issue. He identified the problem and worked with me through a plan to recover and strengthen. He was very professional and friendly through the whole process. I found Declan on google myself and went to him based on the reviews I read. Having been to a number of sessions with him, I would happily recommend him to anyone."

    Peter

  • "Highly recommended. So professional and friendly."

    Linson

  • "I went to Declan for a torn calf (soleus) muscle injury, hoping for help getting back running. From the first visit the service was top class. He diagnosed the injury, and measured where I was in terms of mobility and strength. He then provided exercises on the Physiapp, with a customised rehab plan. After a few follow up visits that helped assess my progress, I am back running. Would highly recommend Declan to anybody looking for thorough sustainable recovery plan forma sports injury."
