I have a great job. By that, I mean I am practicing a system of medicine that not only has thousands of years behind it, but over the last decade has undergone serious evidence quality assessments for up to 120 plus conditions, from pain, gynae, auto immune issues, helping people undergoing cancer treatments with their many side effects, pregnancy related problems, muscular skeletal to name but a few. (See www.acupuncture.org.au for more details)
This system of medicine has many strengths. The first being the ability to see in a holistic format and that we may well treat people with the same complaint in a different way giving way to the old saying; ‘Different Diseases same treatment - Same disease different treatment’. We look at the whole system, so not just the ache in the stomach or the acne on your face ,for example. We ask you about everything from your digestive system, sleeping patterns, any pains in your body right down to taking your mental/ emotional wellbeing into account too. It may seem very diverse when going through these questions but remember, some meridians may pass from your foot right up into your face whilst crossing through various systems like your gynae, digestive, liver etc......!
It’s huge hidden area of strength is it’s ability to help us maintain optimum health and wellbeing which will help extend our longevity. It is also hugely helpful when people are undergoing western treatment whether it be chemo therapy or radiation therapy, hormonal IVF techniques, pain management etc.....It helps the person’s body perform better, offset any nasty side effects from drug therapies whilst NOT cause any side effects. When you come into me , I take a full history, look at any blood test results, look at your tongue, take your pulse and then I will not only consider the symptoms of the disease or issue, but, how the imbalances in each of the body’s organ and meridian systems as a whole have contributed to the condition.
I have been practicing in Drogheda since 2002, and during that time I have completed many CPD courses from becoming a Chinese herbalist in 2008, finding a love of the power of medicinal mushrooms, training with Dr Trevor Wing in post graduate women’s health and fertility , treating people undergoing cancer treatments, a course specific on treating the menopause, Shonishin paediatric acupuncture with Stephen Birch, Japanese moxa techniques, to name but a few. My specialization and interest is in women’s health, stress and anxiety, however, I love how acupuncture alone can help so many conditions that often do not make any sense to you or your GP too.
