Audrey qualified from Trinity College Dublin in 2000 with an honours degree in physiotherapy. Since graduating she has gained invaluable clinical experience in a variety of different clinical areas in hospitals in Dublin, Ireland and Christchurch, New Zealand. She developed a keen interest in aquatic physiotherapy (hydrotherapy) in 2002. Since then she has gained extensive experience, working with adults who have acute and chronic conditions, in a pool setting. Audrey has expertise in rheumatology, sports injuries, musculoskeletal, orthopaedic, chronic pain, palliative care and care of the older person.

In 2011 she completed her Masters by research (University College Dublin) where her interest in aquatic physiotherapy lead her to investigate the effect of water-based exercise in individuals with Rheumatoid arthritis. The research findings were presented at both national and international medical conferences.

Audrey continues to extend her skills and expand her knowledge by attending numerous postgraduate courses. Her passion for exercising in water continues to grow and this has lead her to establish “Aquatic Physio Ireland.”
