About Us

SportsPlus Physiotherapy Clinic was established in Nenagh in 2008 by John Casey. In 2022 John and Owen decided to set up a new clinic and made the big move in April 2023. The clinic is located in Unit 2, Castlebrand, Tyone, Nenagh, E45 EP97. The clinic has modern rehabilitation gym and yoga/pilates studio in combination with 4 treatment rooms.

Presently the clinic is managed by Jana Kutnikova. Jana runs the front desk and the day-to-day organisation of the clinic with great efficiency. She is the first point of contact with patients and is more than happy to help with queries and requests.

John Casey and Owen Higginbotham are co-owners of SportsPlus Physiotherapy. John originally set up the clinic in Quintins Ways in 2008 and it went from strength to strength over the years under Johns stewardship. It be came apparent that SportsPlus needed more space to continue to grow and expand its services and value to its patients. We were very lucky to discover Castlebrand which provided us with the space to develop the capacity for further growth. John and Owen partnered together in the business and designed and developed a facility that would allow them to deliver a cutting edge physiotherapy practice.

John is a highly experienced and trusted physiotherapist who is constantly looking for ways to improve the service and keep up with new practices. You can read more about John in his bio section.

Owen Higginbotham joined SportsPlus Physiotherapy initially in 2019. Owen is a marvellous addition to the clinic with his personable manner, varied experience and thirst for knowledge making him an excellent clinician.

Ger Corcoran joined the clinic on a part-time basis in 2021 and has increased his hours in the clinic since January 2024 becoming an invaluable member of the team, bringing great experience and an international perspective from his time working abroad.

Mostly recently Clodagh McIntyre joined the clinic in 2023 following her studies in UCD. She has been a fantastic addition to the team bringing her positivity and upbeat personality along with her background in pilates and yoga which has further strengthened the SportsPlus Physiotherapy team.
