What the Practice Offers

Seán's practice mission is to offer you a heightened experience of health. He uses Classical Five-Element Acupuncture (CF-EA) which works in harmony with the laws of nature to assist you be more balanced, at ease, and peaceful by stimulating your body's own natural healing. Classical Five-Element Acupuncture acknowledges that our health and wellbeing are affected by the state of our body, our mind and our spirits. When we experience tensions of any kind, our immune system is affected and we may get injured, feel unwell, suffer from depression, and generally find life more difficult. Therefore, Classical Five-Element Acupuncture treats more than just physical symptoms. Keeping the whole person in mind, this form of acupuncture assists you in the regaining of health on all levels: body, mind and spirit.

Classical Five-Element Acupuncture as taught by Professor J.R. Worsley is a unique type of acupuncture because it not only treats symptoms, but also looks for the root cause of disease or imbalance. It recognises the entire person must be taken into account to treat the cause of the illness rather than only addressing the symptoms. Treatments are designed according to the unique needs of an individual patient.

Patient Testimonial

I attended Sean for lower back pain. I was amazed that even though the needles were not put anywhere near the affected area the pain disappeared. There was an added bonus in that my sleep improved and I have lots more energy. I was under the impression that acupuncture worked only for a specific complaint and was pleasantly surprised at how well I felt in myself after my course of treatments. I would highly recommend it to everyone.
