With over 20 years of clinical experience, Louise is the founder and Clinic Director of Physio 64, located in the heart of Merrion Square. The clinic provides expert, evidence-based physiotherapy for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, with particular expertise in complex spinal pain, pelvic health, and pregnancy and postnatal rehabilitation.
Louise has a longstanding clinical interest in the assessment and management of chronic and complex spinal disorders, including persistent back and neck pain, disc-related conditions, nerve-related symptoms, and post-surgical rehabilitation. At Physio 64, she adopts a comprehensive, personalised approach to spine care—focused not only on pain relief, but on restoring function, improving resilience, and reducing the risk of recurrence through long-term management strategies.
She completed her Master’s in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy at the University of Queensland, internationally recognised for excellence in spinal pain research, and holds a Eurospine Diploma in Interprofessional Spine Care, reflecting her commitment to best-practice, evidence-informed spinal rehabilitation. Louise also has advanced training in dry needling and Clinical Pilates, incorporating both matwork and specialised equipment such as the Reformer to support optimal recovery and performance.
In addition to her clinical work, Louise is actively involved in physiotherapy education. She is a Clinical Tutor on the RCSI BSc in Physiotherapy and teaches on the new RCSI MSc in Advanced Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy, contributing her extensive clinical expertise to the training of future and advanced practice physiotherapists.
Louise is also a Certified Mummy MOT® Practitioner, with specialist training in pelvic floor dysfunction, pregnancy-related musculoskeletal pain, and postnatal rehabilitation.

Jessica Rynne
Chartered Physiotherapist | Pelvic Health Specialist | Pregnancy & Postnatal Rehabilitation | Clinical Pilates Instructor
CORU Registration: PT06552
I am a Chartered Pelvic Health Physiotherapist with a specialist focus on women’s health, pregnancy-related pain, postnatal rehabilitation, and pelvic floor dysfunction. I hold an Honours Degree in Physiotherapy from Trinity College Dublin, where I received an ISCP Research Award for my work on urinary incontinence.
I am passionate about supporting women throughout their lifespan—from early pregnancy through postnatal recovery and beyond—helping them rebuild strength, restore confidence, and return to the activities they love. My approach centres on accurate diagnosis, education, and evidence-based rehabilitation, taking a thorough look at muscular, postural, and movement contributors to pelvic floor dysfunction beyond the basics.
I have completed specialist Pelvic Health training with the Pelvic Obstetric & Gynaecological Physiotherapy (POGP) group in the UK and the National Maternity Hospital, including further training in Pelvic Organ Prolapse assessment and management. I have additional training in Pregnancy and Physical Activity with the Faculty of Sports & Exercise Medicine.
Alongside my clinical work, I am a certified Reformer Pilates instructor (Pilates Performance Academy) and APPI Matwork Clinical Pilates Instructor, with particular interest in pre- and post-natal patients. While teaching Reformer Pilates and rehabilitation sessions, I m constantly assessing and tailoring programmes to individual needs and adapting exercises to optimise long-term function, strength, and performance.
I work extensively with antenatal and postnatal women, integrating my knowledge of pelvic health, biomechanics, and the muscular adaptations that occur during pregnancy and throughout life. My goal is always to help women feel strong, capable, and like themselves again.
I am also involved in women’s sport, providing physiotherapy support to AIL women’s rugby and ladies’ Gaelic football.

Annie Kirwan
Chartered Physiotherapist | Pelvic Health Specialist | Pregnancy & Postnatal Rehabilitation | Clinical Pilates Instructor
CORU Registration: PT068869
Annie is a physiotherapist with nearly 15 years of experience teaching Pilates and movement. Over that time, she has worked with thousands of clients, from complete beginners to experienced athletes, helping people rehabilitate injuries, build strength, move with greater confidence and better understand their bodies.
Her extensive background in Pilates strongly shapes the way she works as a physiotherapist. Annie takes time to understand the person behind the problem, looking not only at where symptoms are felt, but at how the whole body moves and the different factors that may be contributing. She combines physiotherapy, Pilates and movement to create rehabilitation that is individual, practical and relevant to each person’s life.
Annie has a particular interest in women’s health and pregnancy-related care. Having worked with pregnant women through movement and Pilates for over a decade, she has extensive experience supporting women to move and exercise throughout pregnancy. She has undertaken further training in female and pelvic health and has a particular interest in urinary incontinence and pelvic girdle pain. She is passionate about helping women understand their bodies, stay active throughout pregnancy and return to movement with confidence afterwards.
Annie also brings a strong scientific and academic background to her clinical practice. Before training as a physiotherapist, she completed a First Class Honours degree in Biomedical Science followed by postgraduate research in Molecular Immunology at Maynooth University. She later graduated as valedictorian of her physiotherapy class at RCSI, receiving a number of academic, research and clinical awards during her training. This scientific background, combined with almost 15 years of practical movement experience, informs an approach that is evidence-based while always focused on the individual in front of her.
Whether you are dealing with pain or injury, returning to exercise, navigating pregnancy, or simply want to feel stronger and more confident in your body, Annie’s focus is on helping you understand what is going on, build confidence in your body and get back to doing the things that matter to you.
