Metabolic Testing (RMR)
What is Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)?
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) is the number of calories your body burns at rest to maintain vital functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production.
What is an RMR Test?
VO₂ max testing offers a wide range of health and performance insights, whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or aiming for peak athletic performance.
- • It measures how many calories you burn while at complete rest.
- • Measured using a metabolic cart that analyses oxygen consumption (VO₂) and carbon dioxide production (VCO₂) through a mouthpiece.
- • The test lasts about 15-30 minutes in a quiet, controlled environment.
Why Test RMR?
- • Helps create personalized diet and exercise plans.
- • Identifies if metabolism is slower or faster than average.
- • Guides weight management, athletic training, or health interventions.
How the Test Works:
- 1. You rest quietly in a semi recumbent position while the metabolic cart measures gas exchange (Oxygen in, Co2 out).
- 2. The resulting data calculates your energy expenditure in calories per day within 98% accuracy.
What is an RMR Test?
- • Tailors calorie intake for weight loss, maintenance, or gain.
- • Helps optimize nutrition and training for athletes.
- • Provides insight into metabolic health and potential issues.

Physiotherapist Treatment – Dublin 15 and Dublin 24
At a Physiotherapy appointment in our Castleknock, Blanchardstown or Tallaght clinic, treatment will include manual therapy to the soft tissues, tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. Manual therapy can include stretching, massage, manipulation, dry needling and myofascial release.
Physiotherapy can help give pain relief in most cases but often it depends upon the individual and the longevity of the injury or problem. The rate of healing is different for different individuals. The duration of your treatment plan depends upon variations in pain, motivation, perception, and the healing rate of the individual.
