Anne has been working as a holistic practitioner for 5 years and a journalist writing about Irish alternative medicine practitioners in Social & Personal Magazine described her as “one of the best therapists I have ever met”.  As an acupuncturist, her primary training is in both Japanese and Chinese acupuncture and she is currently one of only a few practitioners in Ireland using the powerful synergistic blend of both modalities. 

Anne has studied numerous oriental medicine modalities such as Medical Qi Gong, Auricular Acupuncture (ear acupuncture), Tui Na (Chinese) Massage, and Shiatsu. She has also completed courses Aromatherapy and Reflexology and travelled to India to study Ayurveda, (the Indian system of traditional medicine). 

Anne treats a full range of complaints including the musculoskeletal, (sports injuries, arthritis, back pain, knee pain), emotional/psychological, (stress, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, insomnia), gastrointestinal (constipation, ulcers, nausea, diarrhoea), neurological (sciatica, headaches, general neuralgias), and addictions (alcohol, smoking, food, drugs, gambling). Furthermore, she is particularly interested in treating acute and chronic pain, psychological/emotional issues (Anne's B.A (hons.) is in Psychology and Philosophy) and addiction (Anne's M.A (hons.) is in Addiction Studies). 

Anne is a registered member of the T.C.M.C.I and the I.R.H and her acupuncture treatments are approved and reimbursable with healthcare insurance providers.
