Having experienced many injuries in the past (3 times sprained knee, sprained ankle, lower and upper back problems) over years I was going to different practitioners but nobody was able to help me to the extent that Joe did.
During the first session, after the initial examination of my knee, Joe started with warming up the muscles around the knee with the infra-red lamp, then he put some acupuncture needles around my sore knee, and afterward, he applied Graston technique to my legs to treat the muscles. Only later, I found out that the latter technique is commonly used for sports people and that there are only a few practitioners of this technique in Ireland.
Even if I was not reporting any particular pains in my back Joe spotted that my posture was out of alignment which possibly was contributing to the knee problem. Therefore he first checked my spine and due to big tension in my shoulders he used Chinese cupping to release the tension from the muscles and realigned my spine gently with help of an adjusting device. Straight away after the first session, I was able to walk better without the limping that I came to his clinic with.
Joe is one of those very few people who truly cares about his patients! He is going an extra mile to relieve the pain and to realign the body.
