I am delighted to announce that Liam will be joining the Empowerment Physio team in September. His diary will be open very soon. Check out his bio ⬇️
My name is Liam Clancy. I am a Sports Rehabilitation and Athletic Therapist at Empowerment Physiotherapy. I qualified as an Athletic Therapist in 2025 from SETU Carlow and completed my final placement under the guidance and supervision of Leanne. I am delighted to be treating people from all walks of life and improve how people feel and move in their own bodies. I share the values of empowerment physiotherapy in that education, and movement, is key for people with acute or chronic injuries. I am delighted to work with my clients to create a rehabilitation plan to attain both short- and long-term goals together.
Before beginning with Empowerment physiotherapy, I experienced life within professional sports as an Athletic Therapy assistant with the Oakland Athletics baseball organisation in Phoenix, Arizona. My experience within both settings gives me a wide perspective on injury prevention and treatment, not just in the sporting field, but also in everyday life. I strive to make rehabilitation a collaborative and empowering experience for everyone who walks through our doors.
I believe that every individual deserves a tailored approach, recognising the unique circumstances and goals they bring to their rehabilitation journey. My treatment strategies are grounded in empathy and collaboration, striving to empower clients through education, hands-on care, and progressive movement strategies. Whether working with high performing athletes or those seeking to restore daily function, my aim is to support lasting change and inspire confidence in each person’s ability to move well and live fully.
Aside from being an athletic therapist, I also work at badger and dodo which is a local boutique coffee roaster. I love staying active by playing hurling with Fermoy GAA and catching up with friends on the weekends. My long term goal is to apply for my masters in physiotherapy where I can continue to help more people in a wider array of settings.
