Acupuncture
Tara Barden - Ostara Clinic
I met Tara when I moved into The Resting Tree, and we got on immediately. Tara's acupuncture technique is unlike anything I've experienced before. It's indepth, and complex, yet so relaxing. You know you are in good hands with Tara!
Ursula McFadden - Wholistic House Of Healing
I feel like I've known Ursula forever. She's always a welcoming ray of sunshine, even on Galway's rainiest days. I go to her for my monthly top up to keep me stable, aging gracefully and pain free. When I fall off the Ursula wagon, my body will definitely let me know in no time!
Astrology Readings
Dolores Andrew - The Fourth House
Dolores does MANY things, but the one I keep going back for every year are her Solar Return readings. Most other readings I walk away with more questions than answers, but with Dolores I walk away with more answers than questions... every time.
Jack Gaffney - Golden Boy Astrology
I used to work with Jack, and let me tell you this, he knows his stuff! Jack really is a fountain of information, and he does a great job of explaining astrology in a way the average person can actually understand. Check him out on instagram, and better yet, book in a birth chart reading!
Counselling & Psychotherapy
Eva Lulavae - Reiki & Psychotherapy
When I met Eva, I decided to redo my Reiki certification just so I could work alongside her. I love her energy and I trust her integrity more than anyone I've met in this line of work. If you're looking to learn Reiki, look no further. Eva is also now offering Psychotherapy, and it's a powerful combination for anyone looking for something more than just "talk therapy".
Deirdre Shortt - Integrative Psychotherapy
I know Deirdre from my Shamanic Practitioner training. She is an experienced integrative psychotherapist who uses a wide range of modalities for a unique person centered non judgemental safe approach. She meets people where they are and walks along side them to where they want to be.
Energy Work
Aisling O'Leary - Cranial Sacral Therapy
My first treatment with Aisling I cried because I was so grateful to have found her. I can't tell you what Cranial Sacral work is exactly, but I can tell you she does it, and it is pure magic. Aisling herself if a living, walking, breathing heart chakra. Any treatment with her is nurturing, wholesome and healing. She is incredibly intuitive and overflowing with compassion.
Amber Doyle - Align with Amber
Both Amber's one-on-one treatments and group events are so special. Also worth mentioning, her book is a beautiful source of inspiration and guidance. If you live out around Oranmore, even more of a reason to book in with Amber. No matter how you interact with Amber, it's always worth it!

Laura Corcoran - Solar Light Healing
Laura is an intuitive energy healer, who uses Solar Light healing, the energy of the sun, to promote well-being and peace of mind, ease stress and find balance within, clear mental, physical or emotional pain, ease grief, shed light on specific situations and spiritual protection. She loves to combine oracle and tarot cards at the end of her sessions to blend energy healing and intuitive guidance.
Megan Adair - The Embodied Shaman
Megan came to me for an exchange, and it was such a welcome one! Her Access Bars session was so potent and memorable. I can feel the energy like it was yesterday. Megan is also a powerhouse of a personality, inspiring, unstoppable and wildly alive like the light behind her eyes. Give her a shout and hopefully you can get her in town!
Fitness
Saibh Egan - Yoga with Saibh
I've been doing yoga for 20+ years, and I don't think I've ever experienced or enjoyed a yoga class quite as much as I enjoy Saibh's classes. Her attention to detail, her body awareness, her music, her yogic philosophy and guidance. It's *chef's kiss*. You can find Saibh in different parts of the city on different days of the week, so there's definitely a class that's perfect for you!
Aoife - Little Garden Yoga Studio
There's a new yoga spot in town! Knocknacarra is home to the new and wholesome Little Garden Yoga Studio run by Aoife. Everything from Yin, to Vinyasa, Breathwork and Meditation... and my favourite: Restorative yoga!
Gut Health
Céline Gien - Chi Nei Tsang Therapy
Céline is one of the lovely ladies I worked with at The Resting Tree. If her therapies are anything like her, I know they are wholesome and generous and nurturing. A mutual client of ours once told me that Céline's Abdominal Massage treatment changed her life. So no doubt Céline works wonders!
Antoinette Curran - NUA Holistic
I'll be honest, I've never been to Antoinette at NUA Holistic, but I have sent probably a dozen clients to her by now for Colonic Irrigation. Every person who has been brave enough to try has comeback with raving reviews. Nothing but positive feedback.
Male Practitioners I Trust
Greg Tollefson - Chiropractor
I don't typically like Chiropractic work, so believe me when I say that Greg's not just good, he's great at what he does! He's top tier in his field, and a fellow Canadian to boot. If you need to get cracking, book in with this guy!
Pablo Moreno - Physio Therapist
Anytime I can get in to Pablo I know my every ache and pain will be sorted to the best of this abilities. Pablo is an incredible physio and an even better musician would you believe. Check him out! You won't regret it.
Des Richmond - Kinesiologist & Somatic Trauma Practitioner
My treatments with Des were distinct and memorable. Like they were yesterday. I remember walking in like an end-game Jenga and walking out solid again. I couldn't tell you how he does it, so find out for yourself!
Meditation & Mindfulness
Shirley & Diarmaid - Heartfulness
Shirley and Diarmaid are like family to me, and if you meditate with them, they will no doubt be like family for you too. They are so warm, loving and present. If you're looking for a place to meditate, and a group to meditate with, look no further.
Saibh - Yoga
I've been doing yoga for 20+ years, and I don't think I've ever experienced or enjoyed a yoga class quite as much as I enjoy Saibh's classes. Her attention to detail, her body awareness, her music, her yogic philosophy and guidance. It's *chef's kiss*. You can find Saibh in different parts of the city on different days of the week, so there's definitely a class that's perfect for you!
Pregnancy & Antenatal
Tara Durkin - Doula Next Door
Even though I've never worked with Tara, I have had a phone call with her, and I have to say... She's lovely! On top of that, I have had many clients that recommend her and speak very highly of her. So based on that, she's got my vote of confidence!
Emma Cahalan - Be Well Birth Well
I don't know Emma personally, but her reputation is glowing. She has some very helpful services for pregnancy, especially leading up to birth. I know if I was pregnant, I would definitely be giving her a shout.
Reflexology
Clare O'Grady - The Resting Tree
Clare is one of my Holistic Sisters over at The Resting Tree. Even if I haven't experienced her therapy just yet, I have met a good few people who have, and they have nothing but glowing reviews. Find out for yourself! And one day soon I will too.
Therese Moylan - Triskel Centre
I haven't yet experienced Therese's therapy, but I have worked with her one-on-one. What I can tell you is that she has such a present, grounding and comforting aura. What more could you ask for?
Reproductive & Pelvic Health
Dr. Eva Flynn - GP & OB/Gyn
I met Dr. Eva a few years ago, and I knew within seconds I wanted her to be my GP. She's kind, patient, gives you time and asks great questions. She asks about and talks about things your average GP will not. She's Trauma informed and incredibly humble and soft. I have never had a GP quite like her, and I wish there were more just like her!
Aoife Ni Eochaidh - Pelvic Physiotherapy
I saw Aoife speak at an event a couple of years ago, and I could have listened for another hour easy. She's passionate, kind and incredibly informed about things most women are unaware of and confused about. She's a Chartered Physiotherapist and clinical expert in the field of Women’s health & continence.
Céline Gien - Chi Nei Tsang Therapy
If you're looking for a holistic solution to your Endometriosis, PCOS, or fertility issues, look no further. Celine's Chi Nei Tseng therapy is the answer. If I could explain it in any way, I would say it is like AcuMassage, complete with cupping and moxibustion. She has truly incredible results with her work. Find out for yourself!
Liz O'Connell - Placenta Encapsulation
Elizabeth's placenta encapsulation service is such a beautiful offering. I tell all my ladies going through pregnancy about her. Honestly, I want every woman going through this rite of passage to know about the importance of their after birth, and in my eyes, Liz is the expert.
