Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a system which supports and activates internal energy pathways in the body, corresponding with organs and body parts. It involves using tiny hair- like disposable needles to stimulate selected Acupuncture points to restore health and over all well being of the body and mind.

Acupuncture during pregnancy

There has been a rapid influx on the demand for Acupuncture and Moxibustion during pregnancy. It treats a wide range of common pregnancy related conditions such as nausea/ vomiting, headache, carpel tunnel syndrome, sciatica, anxiety, depression, constipation and haemorrhoids.

Acupuncture for fertility

Acupuncture can help to support fertility in many ways. During what can be an extremely stressful and worrying time, this is also an opportunity to stop, check in and breath. A confidential and discreet environment is guaranteed.

Cupping

Cupping is often used with Acupuncture needles to relieve stagnation of qi (Chi) and blood, addressing uncomfortable conditions such as headache, neck and shoulder pain and back pain. It is also very useful for releasing tension created by occupational lifestyle hazards such as stooping and poor sitting posture.

Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a warming technique, where a tightly compacted smokeless herb called Mugwort, is lit with a candle to create a glowing ember.

Testimonials

  • "Catherine, what can I say, you have changed my life and helped me reset my body and mind. I spent so many years of my life dealing with constipation and getting some relief but nothing ever seemed to last long term. I had been to acupuncture before with other people but with you it just hit different. Your chat before the treatment is so uplifting, as you actually explained to me that it was childhood trauma that was the main contributing factor to me holding on to things. After my first appointment everything just clicked I was more aware of my actually mind set and the needles obviously were a great kick start! I can not recommend you enough you are such a special talented person who can help so many others. I love the impact you have had on me. I just wanted to share this with you for you to share with others as I know there are so many people like me dealing with chronic stress and constipation, and putting it down to diet instead of mindset."

    Fiona, Cavan

  • “I have attended Catherine with issues as diverse as joint pains, sleep issues, stress, poor focus and concentration, and chronic fatigue type symptoms. Her intuitive understanding of what is happening in my body and her explanations and use of Acupuncture, Cupping, BodyTalk, as well as nutritional and supplement advice, which helped clear most of my symptoms and markedly reduced the others. Her manner and personality help create a relaxing environment and I came away from every session feeling positive, empowered and motivated. Catherine is a brilliant therapist and I would highly recommend her to anyone with any kind of health issue”

    Jennifer, Kilkenny

  • “Catherine is an excellent Practitioner, a gifted and experienced professional. I have had Acupuncture, Bodytalk, Cupping and Reflexology with her, and I recommend her unreservedly, whatever the ailment or condition. An amazing woman”

    Caroline, Co. Kerry

  • “I first visited Catherine as I was feeling very sluggish and tired following a stomach bug. Catherine recommended acupuncture. Within a couple of days I was starting to get my “mojo” back. Since then I have been attending Catherine for stress and general wellness. I have experienced cupping and acupuncture at Catherine’s healing hands and I can honestly say that she has worked wonders on my general health. Her calm approach and words always leave me feeling relaxed and looking forward to my next visit.”

    Sarah, Cork

  • “A friend of mine recommended I try acupuncture for the persistent shoulder and back pain I'd been having for the last two years, although to be honest  I was a little apprehensive because I'm not the biggest fan of needles. Thankfully Catherine was quick to put me at ease and after a through assessment a combination of cupping and acupuncture was decided on. After a few sessions the pain had subsided considerably and my range of motion had improved considerably. Giving me guidance on my diet and suggesting some lifestyle changes I've also been able to address digestion issues I've been having for years. Catherine has also started to introduce BodyTalk into our sessions and this has taken them to the next level. It never fails to amaze me how Catherine can use her intuition to bring events and experiences from my past and present and help me understand how they may be contributing to my ongoing symptoms...something that I may not have realised but I certainly recognise. Catherine has a wonderfully caring nature, a vast knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, and a great understanding of the anatomy. I'd recommend everyone book in for an appointment because I can honestly say it has changed my life!”

    Maire, Quin, Co. Clare
