Niall Carroll Lic. Ac, M.A.F.P.T.A
Niall Carroll completed his acupuncture course in Dublin’s Acupuncture Foundation College, the oldest and largest professional body for practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in Ireland. He studied there under such prominent Chinese doctors as Prof. Gin Hui De, Dr. Jidong Wu and Dr. Meng Fen Yi. To complete his post-graduate training he went to Nanjing University World Health Organisation Collaborative, China where he practised and studied under the tuition of Dr. GU Zhaojin (Prof. of TCM, Dep. Director of Jiangsu Province Neurologist Committee and Chief Physician of Jiangsu Province 2nd Affiliated Hospital). In this placement he specialized in the treatment of neurological disorders (facial paralysis and post-stroke victims) and musculoskeletal problems (sciatica, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.). Upon completion of this placement he opted to receive further training, in Jiangsu Peoples Hospital, under the instruction of Dr. Han You (a leading abdominal expert) where he treated a wide range of conditions ranging from infertility to trigeminal neuralgia. Once Niall returned to Ireland he set up a practise in Manor Kilbride (in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains) where he still practises today. In March 2013, Niall decided to expand to Dublin when the opportunity arose in the Posture Centre. There his treatments include the use of acupuncture (electro incl.), moxibustion, cupping and auricular (ear) acupuncture to treats a variety of physical and emotional conditions.
