About

Ms Denise Galvin is a Chartered Physiotherapist with over 20 years of international experience in musculoskeletal and orthopaedic physiotherapy. A graduate of University College Dublin (UCD), she has practised extensively across South East Asia, the Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Ireland, gaining a diverse range of clinical expertise in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

Denise’s specialist interests lie in orthopaedic rehabilitation, sports injury management, runner assessments and post-operative recovery. For the past 15 years, she has primarily worked in outpatient clinics, helping patients regain function and return to activity following injury or surgery. She has also served as lead physiotherapist for various sports teams in soccer, tennis, and Gaelic football, as well as for theatre companies and professional dancers, providing tailored rehabilitation and performance support.

A qualified Dry Needling Practitioner, Denise combines hands-on treatment with evidence-based exercise therapy to optimise recovery. Her diagnostic precision and holistic approach allow her to consider the wider physical and functional context of each patient’s condition, ensuring treatment plans are both comprehensive and personalised.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
