Sheila O’Donoghue

Sheila is a highly experienced physiotherapist with extensive clinical expertise in musculoskeletal assessment, rehabilitation and diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound. Having worked across both private practice and hospital settings, she brings a wealth of knowledge to the management of a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including complex presentations, post-operative rehabilitation and patients receiving consultant-led care.

She specialises in the assessment and treatment of back pain, shoulder and knee conditions, post-operative rehabilitation, and musculoskeletal conditions associated with women’s health. She has a particular interest in pregnancy-related musculoskeletal pain and muscle and joint symptoms associated with the menopause, providing specialist support to patients whose symptoms may otherwise go unrecognised or untreated.

Sheila combines hands-on manual therapy with evidence-based physiotherapy, taking an individualised approach to assessment and treatment. She is committed to helping patients understand their condition, the rationale behind their treatment and the evidence supporting different management options. Her approach focuses on addressing the underlying causes of symptoms, restoring function and supporting long-term recovery.

In addition to her physiotherapy practice, Sheila performs the clinic’s diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound scans. By integrating detailed clinical assessment with ultrasound imaging where appropriate, she can investigate musculoskeletal concerns, support diagnostic decision-making and guide targeted treatment plans. This combination of clinical experience, specialist assessment and diagnostic imaging enables her to provide a comprehensive, personalised approach to musculoskeletal care.
