I’ve Been In Your Position Before…
![Dave O’Sullivan as physiotherapist for pro sport athletes](/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/ive-been-in-your-position.png)
As a physiotherapist myself, I know how frustrating it is when you feel stuck in your career. Even though you’ve reached a level of skill and competence that sets you apart from many of your peers, you know there’s still a gap between where you are today and where you could be.
When faced with challenging cases, you start second-guessing your approach. You question whether you have the knowledge and skills to treat patients with more complex issues. And then you start worrying about how this could impact your reputation in the wider industry.
I know this feeling myself. Early in my career while working with my dream team (Munster Rugby), two players had to retire on my watch. It was at that moment that I said enough was enough, and I fully committed to building a complete and robust step-by-step system that didn’t rely on ‘magic bullets’ or ‘techniques.
If you’re experiencing similar challenges in your career, then you might be missing some critical elements in your system that are necessary for your success and your peace of mind. I learned that with the right direction, a shift in mindset, and a change of method, you can put an end to those feelings of frustration.
You want to be able to grow your practice and have other physiotherapists come to you for advice about resolving complex cases. You want your skills to be so refined that your colleagues see you as someone who has mastered clinical practice.
When I changed my approach and added more structure, my patients with complex issues started recovering quicker. I stopped second guessing myself, and my peers started to see me as their ‘go-to’ physio for advice.
Drawing on all my years’ experience, I developed this program to help you achieve clinical mastery too. It’s designed to help you make progress with those challenging cases and grow your patient list to the point that you need to take on your own employees.
This is about more than boosting your skills. It’s about cementing your reputation as an expert clinician – one who other physios look to for guidance.
How Often Do You Find Yourself In These Situations…?
- Assessing a patient with complex issues, but you feel unsure of where the root issue lies. Self-doubt creeps in, making you second-guess your skills.
- Designing a treatment plan, but you start to question if it will fully resolve your patient’s complaints. A voice asks: ‘‘is this really the right approach?’’
- You ‘wing’ the first session using the same hands on treatment and rehab techniques for every patient. You find yourself going through the motions and losing passion for the profession.
- A patient returns with the same stubborn symptoms. You get that sinking feeling that maybe you’re not skilled enough to help them.
- You progress a patient’s rehab plan to the next stage, but they never quite achieve the highest function you know is possible.
- A colleague asks for your advice with a challenging case, but you don’t feel confident enough to guide them.
If you find yourself in at least 2 of these situations on a weekly basis, then there’s a chance that you need to develop more structure in your approach and will benefit from a step-by-step system.
By refining your skills and knowledge you can reach a level of expertise where you can confidently assess, explain, and treat even the most complex, ambiguous cases.
In just 12 weeks, I can help you cement your reputation and ethically keep patients progressing. You'll start to see consistently great results that lead to more referrals – all without doubting yourself or losing patients.
My step-by-step approach lets you apply your knowledge and training into a cohesive, actionable framework that creates consistent, reliable, and lasting results.

Who Am I
![Image](/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/dave-footer.png)
My name is Dave O’Sullivan. I’m a physiotherapist with an extensive background in both professional sports and private practice. I founded the ProSport Academy to help therapists like you feel more capable of growing their business and enhancing their reputation.
I have over 15 years’ experience working with elite athletes across a range of sports, including Rugby Union, Rugby League, Motorsport, and Professional Golf.
While I was working in these high-pressure environments, I noticed there was a lack of educational resources available to physiotherapists – particularly in the field of critical thinking and patient-focused care.
Personally, I would’ve really benefited from a step-by-step system when I was feeling less than capable in my practice. And this is what gave me the idea for ProSport Academy – which has gone on to be a leading provider of advanced physiotherapy education.
My goal is to help therapists overcome feelings of overwhelm and doubt, and become ‘go-to’ professionals in their respective communities. Through ProSport Academy’s courses, I share my expertise and the unique approaches I’ve used to build a rewarding, sustainable physiotherapy business.
My Experience and Expertise
- Since 2015, I’ve helped over 1,500 therapists in over 50 countries improve their confidence.
- I’ve worked as Head Physiotherapist for England Rugby League teams.
- I was the Rehab Physiotherapist for England Rugby Union at the 2019 Rugby Union World Cup in Japan.
- I was the Consultant Physiotherapist to the Wallabies Rugby Union team at the 2023 Rugby Championships and Rugby World Cup in France.
- I run my own private physiotherapist practice in the North of England.
- My qualifications include a BSc (HONS) in Physiotherapy from the University of Huddersfield, and an MSc in Strength and Conditioning from St. Mary’s University, London.
- My physiotherapy clients have included professional superbike racers, professional footballers, Olympic ski and snowboard athletes – and even professional singers.
My mission is to guide ambitious clinicians from competence to mastery, by giving them the skills and guidance they need to never feel frustrated, overwhelmed, or stuck again.
