Physiotherapy Services at Seabury Medical

Katharina has over 30 years of combined experience in physiotherapy, specialising in rehabilitation services within private practice in Germany and Ireland. She is a registered Physiotherapist with the ISCP and CORU. Katharina qualified with an Honours degree in Physiotherapy from Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich in 1990 and completed a Certificate as a Bruegger Therapist in 1991 and in Manual Therapy from Hamm FAC in 1993. Before moving to Ireland, she worked in a Rehabilitation Centre in Augsburg. Since then, she has been dedicated to providing rehabilitation services, initially working at the CRC and later establishing her own private practice in Swords and Donabate in 1994. Additionally, she managed a Neurological Rehabilitation Day Centre for acquired brain injuries and provided physiotherapy at national and international tennis tournaments as on-site Physio. 

In 2005, she joined Seabury Medical Centre as part of a multidisciplinary team, focusing on the management of musculoskeletal conditions. My aim is to help you with your symptoms by listening and assessing your physical presentation. Together, we can create a comprehensive plan to reduce pain and increase your mobility. You will receive valuable education about your condition, how to manage your symptoms, and set achievable goals. Where suitable, I will incorporate manual therapy to assess, diagnose, and treat you, supported by Electrotherapy to accelerate your recovery. You will leave with a personalized online exercise program that tracks your progress. My main interest lies in managing musculoskeletal conditions through education, a “hands-on” approach, and tailored exercise programs.
