Lower back pain
I went to David when I was suffering from lower back pain and migraines. When I first attended David I could not tie my shoes as I could not bend over. After a couple of treatments my back started to get stronger and my headaches became manageable. What I like about David’s treatment is that it is non invasive and he really listens. I am still attending David on a regular basis and would recommend him to anyone with back or neck trouble.

Lower Back Injury
I insist on seeing David every three weeks because, even though nothing might seem out of place, I get the tweaks and maintenance that I require so that I don’t end up in that dark place of misalignment and pain again. I can’t say I will ever really understand what Amatsu actually is as I’m continuously surprised and fascinated by how it morphs and changes but my body knows what it is and behaves just as it should these days - anonymous
Headache relief
I find Amatsu great as it treats your whole body and doesn’t only look at one area which most other treatments / medication do. David is very easy to talk to and provides excellent advice. I would highly recommend him.

Arthritis
Being introduced to Amatsu has had the single most positive impact on my life and my health. I have arthritis in my neck and have gone to David with very bad pain and walked away feeling that he has the key to unwind my body from the pain.

Lower Back Injury
Amatsu with David McCarthy completely turned my life around. I now have a very strong lower back and pelvis, can even do sit-ups in my Pilates class and the bad head-aches and indigestion I also suffered on a regular basis – not realising they were also related to my back and that, in fact, everything is connected – are also a thing of the past.
Back issues
I have been attending Dave McCarthy for some years. I have previously had back surgery which was successful but have still had some ongoing issues with my back and also some other problems. Dave has always given me great care and attention and really solid grounded advice. He has always been able to pinpoint the underlying source of a problem, and also answer all my questions clearly and simply. I always walk away feeling in better shape!

Painful shoulder break
After a bad shoulder break and continuous trips to the physiotherapist with pain issues, I was given David McCarthy’s number by a colleague. My overall health and wellbeing at the time was at an all time low and after a number of sessions with David through his gentle Amatsu therapy, has completed change my life for the better – I am now optimistic, exercise daily and am looking forward to participating in the Dublin Women’s mini marathon for the first time ever.

Back Pain
“I was a keen Irish hockey player and got a back injury ten years ago. At a closer look, the disks in my lower back are degenerative. I had to seriously limit my sporting activities and always had back pain. Over the years I have been to numerous doctors, physios, consultants and chiropractors. I started seeing David over a year ago and I could feel a huge difference after only three sessions. His sessions, along with a small amount of daily exercise, has extremely helped manage my back pain. David is very friendly, professional and thoroughly recommended.”

Bloating & Discomfort
About 4 years ago I was suffering from what numerous consultants diagnosed as ‘irritable bowl’. I was bloated and felt permanently like I had a really tight band tied around my rib cage. A friend suggested that I try David and after the very first session I got relief. David explained that the problem was coming partly from a valve in my bowel but also from a distortion in my hips. Finally someone who was actually able to look at my whole body and see how the different parts were having an affect on each other!
