Jeremy Duncan is the Clinical Lead at DBC Physiotherapy’s Belfield clinic, based within the UCD Institute for Sport & Health. A Chartered Physiotherapist and international hockey player, Jeremy combines elite sporting experience with evidence-based physiotherapy to help people recover from injury, overcome pain and return to the activities they enjoy.

Jeremy specialises in the assessment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions, with a particular interest in complex neck and low back pain and chronic pain. He also has extensive experience treating sports injuries, tendon disorders, joint pain and post-operative rehabilitation.
His approach reflects the DBC concept, combining detailed assessment, patient education and progressive, exercise-based rehabilitation to address the underlying cause of pain rather than simply treating symptoms. By empowering patients to understand their condition and take an active role in their recovery, Jeremy aims to achieve lasting improvements in function, confidence and quality of life.

Alongside his clinical work, Jeremy has represented Ireland in international hockey for over a decade and is approaching 150 senior international caps. He was a member of Ireland’s men’s hockey team at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, giving him first-hand insight into the demands of elite performance, injury management and rehabilitation.

As Clinical Lead, Jeremy is committed to delivering high-quality, evidence-based care for everyone from elite athletes and active individuals to those living with persistent pain.

Outside the clinic, Jeremy enjoys golf, surfing and yoga, reflecting his belief that movement is one of the most powerful tools for improving and maintaining long-term health, resilience and wellbeing.
