Coaching
I offer a physio-led clinical exercise coaching program for people with chronic pain, fatigue, and complex or invisible illness who want structured guidance with movement. Each plan is built through careful assessment and steady progression to help you regain confidence and function. The program can also integrate yoga-based mindful movement and regulation strategies. I always offer space to adapt when flare-ups occur. The aim is to help you become confident and consistent with exercise for life.
Staying active with chronic illness is so hard
Many people I meet in clinic tell me they struggle with shifting between overdoing it and underdoing it. Symptoms change, energy drops, and the line between productive movement and overload feels unclear. Most people end up guessing, often influenced by mixed messages seen online or past experiences with professionals who didn’t understand their condition. Working together gives you a clear framework so movement becomes predictable again rather than another source of stress.
But it can be done with proper guidance
Exercise shouldn’t leave you incapacitated or trigger long flare-ups. It’s possible to enjoy moving again without the crash that follows. If you’ve been cycling through boom-and-bust patterns, I can help you build a steadier, less stressful way of staying active so you can reconnect with the joy of movement.
Exercise Coaching for Life with Chronic Illness
Across twelve weeks you learn how to move safely, adjust for symptoms, and gain confidence with structured exercise. We create routines that hold, to build a foundation you can rely on as you progress.
-
Initial assessment (movement, symptoms, goals, history)
An exercise plan tailored to you: your symptoms and your current abilities (that evolves with you)
Programming via an app for ease of use
Support and lifestyle guidance on managing chronic illness, including yoga, breathwork and somatic practices as needed
1:1 calls for guidance, pacing, and troubleshooting every 2 weeks
Regular check-ins between sessions via messaging
A clear structure that supports consistency
This helps us stabilise your baseline, reduce reactivity, and build reliable routines. By week twelve, you understand your own thresholds and know how to adjust movement in daily life. You can then choose to continue with me or independently.
-
The first month includes your two part Initial Assessment and is €390
Following months are on a sliding scale of €350 - €380 per month for a 3 month minimum sign up

There is no difference in quality or depth between in-person and online sessions. If attending a clinic in Cork is taxing for you, or you live elsewhere, online sessions may be the best fit.
What you’ll need for online sessions:
A space to move (enough for a yoga mat)
A mat
A computer with a functioning camera and microphone
Adequate lighting so I can see you clearly
As my approach does not typically involve hands-on/manual therapy, you’ll receive the same level of care and input online as you would in person.
