Donal is a fully qualified acupuncturist and we are delighted to offer this ancient and well-proven treatment which has been practiced in China for thousands of years. We have successfully treated a wide range of conditions using acupuncture from sports injuries to head colds.

We have treated a huge number of diverse conditions ourselves, but according to the World Health Organisation, acupuncture can be effective for:

The first thing is to properly assess the client’s needs, their case history and any factors which might have caused their issue or affect treatment.

We then use a variety of techniques to treat the problem based on our extensive experience and the client’s preferences and requirements. Some of those techniques include:

• The therapist will conduct a full examination and assessment of the client’s condition.
• With the client lying-down, the therapist will then insert single-use, sterile needles into the appropriate acupuncture points.
• The client may feel a brief stinging or tingling sensation. Acupuncture is usually painless.
• The needles will stay in place for 5-30 minutes depending on the condition.
• Depending on the individual case, the client may require additional treatment sessions.

Donal has received a Diploma from the International Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
