Fiona, I just want to say a big THANK YOU! I can enjoy going out in the sun again. You were amazing to resolve my sun allergy when the traditional doctor could not fix it.
Julienne
I was suffering with Long Covid and nothing that the doctors recommended seemed to be helping. I was extremely fatigued all the time and just couldn’t function like I used. It was really impacting my life. I decided to try acupuncture, and someone recommended Fiona. After the first session I noticed an improvement. My energy levels were better, and I could think more clearly. I had 6 sessions in all and it’s fair to say I’m back to my old self.
Sandra
Fiona, I I just had to let you know…had a pizza on Saturday night and I was fine afterwards!! As you know, since being diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis there have been so many foods I cannot eat. Pizza was the one I missed the most but it was a definite no-no. I ‘m still in shock that there was no ‘aftermath’ but it shows just how far I’ve come. Thank you!
Fiona
I went to Fiona suffering with constipation. I’ve always had an anxious tummy and I was diagnosed with IBS several years ago. Fiona helped me identify foods that upset my digestive system and I eliminated them from my diet for 6 weeks. In the meantime, Fiona gave me herbs to help my digestion and gave me acupuncture treatments. It wasn’t long before I was feeling much better. All my bloating was gone and I had regular bowel movements. I also feel lighter, and I have more energy. I’m so grateful.
Laura
I had had a few failed IVF cycles before going to see Fiona. After a thorough consultation Fiona advised me to get specific bloods down and it showed that I had thyroid antibodies. Fiona prescribed specific Medicinal Mushrooms for me and I also had acupuncture. After 3 months I did another round of IVF and it worked. I now have a beautiful baby boy.
Niamh
I engaged with Fiona following a diagnosis of early breast cancer & confirmation that I would receive surgery, chemotherapy & radiotherapy. I was aware that acupuncture has been shown to relieve effects of chemo & my oncologist was also completely in favour of using it. I also believed that acupuncture could help support my liver, kidneys & immune system throughout my treatment & beyond. I saw Fiona every week and then also within 24 hours of each chemo. Fiona was always super-accommodating, attentive, focused, engaged & gentle. I absolutely & wholeheartedly recommend her!! I came through treatment without any significant problems; my liver & kidney bloods were always normal & I do believe I recovered from each treatment faster than my contemporaries. I feel so fortunate to have found Fiona; her reassuring & empathetic manner made a scary journey much less so. I continue to see Fiona regularly to help maintain & support my system & ongoing recovery & consider her a key member of my medical team now & into a long & healthy future.

Fiona, you have changed my life! After going to countless doctors I thought I was going to have to live with that shoulder pain for the rest of my life, nothing was helping. I still can’t believe that after just a couple of sessions I am now pain free and no longer need to take pain medication. You are a miracle worker.
Amanda
Fiona, I’m still wondering how you did it? I arrived into you with quite severe back pain and walked out pain free and feeling better than I have in ages. Wow.
Michael
What can I say...miracle worker! Over a week of intense pain and your treatment worked wonders. Feel exhausted but pain free. Looking forward to a good night’s sleep. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Susan
Fiona, Thanks to the nutritional and lifestyle changes you advised me to make and the 6 acupuncture sessions, my bladder pain is now under control and all but gone. Having been diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis several years ago, and having undergone many procedures and treatments, I did not think this was possible. THANK YOU!
Janette
Dear Fiona, I just want to say a big thank you for all your help over the last few months. Thankfully my headaches are completely gone. You are such an amazing, positive person. Thank you for always taking the time to explain things and never rushing.
Martina
Hey Fiona, A massive thank you for my session last week. I asked you to work on my back pain, and also my milk flow for breastfeeding. My back, which was in agony, is almost pain free since! And my milk flow is so much better and for the first time since my baby was born it doesn’t hurt! I’m over the moon.
Laura
I suffered a head injury last year and experienced post concussion syndrome. During my recovery, I suffered from headaches, fatigue, insomnia, sensitivity to lights and sounds. I did not get any relief from pain medication and exercise made the pain worse. I had to take time off from work in light of the injury. Fiona treated me in the early weeks following my injury right up to my recovery, and I am very thankful for her help. I feel her treatment sessions were crucial towards my timely recovery. During the sessions with Fiona, I experienced a relief in headaches, longer pain free periods, increased energy and better sleep. The main result was feeling more refreshed and clear headed. Following a head injury you can feel very foggy and unfortunately groggy too. Fiona also supported my transition back to work, which was extremely helpful. Fiona was always warm and supportive. Her services are specialised but also very personalised and I am very thankful for her help and support.
Maeve
I presented to Fiona in early January 2020 having had a bad fall a couple of days after Christmas. The fall had impacted on my left leg and following an X-ray and MRI I was told that I had tears in both my anterior and medial cruciate ligaments as well as a small fracture on the tibial plate. I had been advised by an orthopedic consultant that recovery would take months and that I would need to wear a knee brace during waking hours. I am a very active person who power walks and goes to the gym on a daily basis so the thought of months of recovery and rehabilitation through physio was frustrating to say the least! I knew that I needed help and so I contacted Fiona.

Fiona suggested that we take things gently for a week and just use Chinese herbs to treat the injury. The effect of this treatment is to increase the blood circulation around the damaged tissue thus aiding recovery. I followed the herbal regime for a week and each day the pain in my leg became less and my mobility slightly better. So, time to start the acupuncture!!Over the next three weeks I had a weekly consultation with Fiona. At my first visit Fiona quickly ascertained that along with the documented injuries to the leg there was also a lot of muscular damage to be addressed. Her course of treatment was a combination of electro and conventional acupuncture. To say that acupuncture is painless is incorrect but the discomfort is momentary and the results far outweigh the brief moment of pain. And, what results!! After the first week I could walk, albeit wearing the brace, without pain. The second week and I was able to use the stairs comfortably…that had been SO painful! The third week and I was able to ditch the brace and head back to the gym and power walk to there!!! Back to normal!
Susan
Fiona, Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Only for you I wouldn’t be where I am today. After 13 years of trying for a baby we were giving up hope but I knew when I saw you on an Instagram Live that you were going to be the answer to my prayers. You will never know how much I am in dept to you, you’re amazing. Thank you so much for helping me realise my dream!
Stephanie (Remote client)
Dear Fiona, You will never realise how grateful I am to you for helping me on my fertility journey. You truly have a special gift in what you do. I really believe that you had a major part in making my dream a reality. I am forever in your debt and hold you in the highest regard.
Liz
Fiona, I can’t thank you enough for all you have done for me. I never thought I would see those two lines on a pregnancy test but your knowledge, kindness, honesty, and sheer dedication to your job got me to where I am right now…over 36 weeks pregnant! Thank you from the bottom of my heart, you have made my dreams come true.
Rebecca
Fiona, Three months of following your dietary and lifestyle advice, and taking the herbs you sent me, and I’m pregnant! Thank you so much for all your help.
Michelle (Remote client)
Fiona, My period arrived without any warning – none of the usual cramping or back ache. I didn’t know periods could be like this…pain free! Thank you!
Mary
My last two periods have been a dream. The bleeding isn’t really heavy, like it used to be, I’ve no pain and I’m not cranky and tired. They even said it to me in work and wanted to know what I had done as lots of the other girls also suffer. I told them to go and see Fiona.
Sarah
After suffering with endometriosis for years, and the pill being the only solution offered to me, I went to see Fiona. I didn’t want to stay on the pill and I hoped for a more natural solution. Fiona didn’t disappoint. She advised me on my diet and some aspects of my lifestyle and also recommended some supplements. I implemented those changes while also having a course of acupuncture. Within 3 months I was off the pill and I wasn’t experiencing any pain with my periods. Three years on and I’m still pain free. I’ve maintained the changes that Fiona advised and I continue to get a maintenance acupuncture treatment every 6 weeks. I’m beyond delighted.
Margaret
Fiona, You have no idea how happy I am. Because of my endometriosis sex has been so painful for me, to the point that I have avoided it for the last number of years. Last night, I had sex…PAIN FREE! I still can’t believe it. You have changed my life.
E
I went to Fiona because I just wasn’t feeling like myself. Despite being on HRT my sleep was still very disturbed, I was still feeling very hot, the brain fog hadn’t fully lifted and I was feeling tired and unmotivated. Fiona discussed everything with me, including my HRT, which facilitated more informed conversations with my GP. I started having acupuncture and within a couple of sessions I noticed a dramatic improvement in how I was feeling. Fiona also gave me some herbs to further aid sleep and she also got rid of the migraines that have plagued me for years. My session with Fiona is now a staple of my self-care.
Sandra
Fiona, no night sweats in the last few months now and sleeping like a baby. Also feeling much more like myself. Woo-hoo!
Catriona
I knew I was perimenopausal from my symptoms but I didn’t want to go on HRT as there’s a history of breast cancer in the family. A friend recommended Fiona and I’m so glad she did. I’m starting to feel like myself again. I even started to notice a difference when I followed her dietary advice but now, having had acupuncture and going on some herbs, I’m really getting back to normal. I’m delighted that I went down this route.
Anne
Fiona, I hadn’t quite realised just how out of sorts I have been until I started with you. I’m feeling so much better; I’m thinking clearer, sleeping better, I’m in better form and I feel so much better able to cope. Thanks for all your support and understanding, I look forward to our weekly session so much…it’s my hour for me!
Kate
Fiona, thank you for helping me overcome my insomnia and grief anxiety. Your caring and calming nature accompanied by your acupuncture sessions has changed my life for the better. I am so appreciative of all you have done for me so far, particularly now that I am sleepinglike a baby. Thank you.
Majella
I went to Fiona because I was feeling very anxious and it was impacting my work and my sleep. I was also withdrawing from my friends. Fiona was so easy to talk to and I loved the acupuncture sessions. I always felt so calm afterwards. I had done some CBT prior to this also and I firmly believe that it was combination of this and Fiona’s expertise and gentle approach that enabled me to go for a promotion and start a new life in a foreign country.
Eoin
Fiona is an intuitive, insightful, experienced and talented practitioner. Her recommendations, help and support go far beyond that of a traditional acupuncturist - her commitment to you, as a whole person is palpable and infectious. Her recommendations are practical and helpful - grounded in years of experience. I'd highly recommend Fiona for anyone who needs help with their health - You will not regret it.
Aisling
I did QTT with Fiona at a time in my life when I was experiencing stress, anxiety and generally feeling overwhelmed with everything. Over a year later and I am still constantly surprised at the positive effect the sessions have given me in my day-to-day life. I feel that Fiona has given me the tools I need to work through difficult feelings and to deal with everything in a more positive manner. I feel a lot more at ease and have an overall positive attitude to situations that would have had a negative impact on me before. It’s changed my life!
AB
I heard about Fiona through a friend of mine. I was suffering from a huge amount of anxiety and stress at the time. I wasn’t sure what treatment was best for me but after a long consultation with Fiona she suggested QTT. After the QTT all I can say is that a weight had been lifted from my shoulders and the ball of anxiety was gone…and has never returned! It’s hard to explain but it has worked wonders for me!
EM
I went into my QTT sessions not really knowing what to expect. I mean, of course Fiona explained it to me, but a whole pile of stuff wasn’t making much sense to me at the time. I had been suffering from anxiety and stress, much of it from external situations that were beyond my control. I was quite overwhelmed, unable to think properly and, quite honestly, drifting down a negative path.

When we started the session it was like unlocking the flood gates. Stuff came to the surface which was both expected and unexpected. I was able to talk to Fiona about stuff that was going on in my life and stuff from the past that, until she helped me make the connections, I didn’t realise was still impacting me. For me, the session was like a pressure relief valve had been opened - after buzzing in the red ‘danger’ zone for so long it was such a relief to go back down to the green ‘safe’ zone. I felt like a great weight had been lifted, I felt lighter and knew I’d be able to handle whatever life threw at me in a better way going forward. Ironically, I had gone to Fiona for something else but she recognised that I was struggling and suggested I try QTT. Fiona is a talented woman at what she does and is a decent and genuine individual, I was lucky to come across her when I did.
LM
Dear Fiona, Thank you for all your support over the last two years. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions, but your physical and mental support has been invaluable. I’ll be bringing our little boy in to see you as soon as I’m back on my feet.
Georgina
I did a QTT session with Fiona and found it absolutely amazing. I had been trying to conceive for a few years when I started with Fiona. After an in-depth consultation she recommended a QTT session as part of my treatment plan. During it I discovered that I was holding onto a lot of pain from my childhood. My grandparents died when I was young and they were my world, even as an adult I couldn’t speak about them without breaking down. And there was a lot of other stuff too. During the session there was a lot of tears but I finally let go of the pain. I never felt so light in life as after the session, I smiled the whole way home.

During the QTT session Fiona helped me realise that a lot of the habits that were disempowering me were as a result of holding onto past traumas. I now find that I am much better equipped to deal with people and situations that would have triggered me before and I’m able to work through my feelings. And I can talk about my grandparents easily, remembering the good times I had with them. I can honestly say that QTT has made such a difference to my life.
