The BodyMed Approach

The concept for BodyMed gradually evolved from experience of working in different sectors from Public to Private Hospitals, and from Private Practice to working with various national and international sports teams. The common denominator was that the most successful outcomes came about when a number of different specialties worked together and when practitioners combined their expertise.

Initially, BodyMed’s founder, Kathy Kavanagh, would refer patients to various experienced colleagues in acupuncture, osteopathy, strength and conditioning, psychology, massage and medicine. During this process, the different specialties would feed back to each other about the patient as well as the course of action they recommended, or that had provided the best results.

When an opportunity arose for what was then known as the ‘PhysioCentre’ to move to larger premises, Kathy decided to bring together a ‘dream team’ of therapists, each of whom were experts in their field, and who would work together under one roof, for the betterment of their patients. This new practice, putting patients at the heart of our service, was named BodyMed.

In just under 7 years from the time of its conception in January 2015, to now, we have grown to 10 staff members from five different therapies and over 7,000 clients. We truly believe BodyMed was the right idea to serve our clients in a new and better way!
