I believe there is no better alternative to enhancing mental, spiritual and physical health than Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine and fell very grateful to have the opportunity to offer my skills to the people of Galway.

Why I chose Chinese Medicine

Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine
are rooted in the Daoist philosophy of harmony, oneness with nature, self-reflection and longevity.  I found that this form of thinking matched what I had been searching for my entire life and am honored to be capable of applying this in a healing modality to those in need of care.

Some of the conditions treated:

INFERTILITY PMT PAINFUL PEROIDS ANXIETY STRESS INSOMNIA DEPRESSION CHRONIC PAIN IBS DIGESTIVE ISSUES LOW ENERGY SKIN ISSUES VIRAL INFECTIONS SINUS SMOKING NAUSEA ASTHMA MIGRAINE BACK PAIN CONSTIPATION  MENOPAUSE

Blue Heron Symbolisim

•    In Egypt the heron is considered the creator of light
•    In China the heron is a symbol of strength, purity, and long life
•    Native American Indians considered the heron a symbol of wisdom and a very good omen

According to North American Native tradition, the Blue Heron brings messages of self-determination and self-reliance. They represent an ability to progress and evolve. The long thin legs of the heron reflect that an individual doesn't need great massive pillars to remain stable, but must be able to stand on one's own.

Blue Herons reflect a need for those with this totem to follow their on unique wisdom and path of self-determination. These individuals know what is best for themselves and need to follow their hearts rather than the promptings of others.

Those with the Medicine of the Great Blue Heron may sit until the rest of us loose patience. And, when they follow the promptings of the heart, they are one of the most magnificent when they choose to soar.

My Mission

My mission as a Practitioner of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine is to Naturally and Holistically balance the mental, spiritual and physical health of those who visit my clinic by combining the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the highest possible quality equipment, herbal Supplements in a professional Therapeutic clinical enviornment.

Josephine O'Halloran Marriage Counselling and Sexual Therapy Galway - Ireland

Blue Heron Therapist Josephine O'Halloran: Counselling Therapy

My name is Josephine O’Halloran and I am a counsellor, psychotherapist, psychosexual therapist, trainer and supervisor in private practice in Galway.

My Theoretical Approach:

I incorporate Person-Centred, Humanistic and Integrative, Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gestalt, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Psychosexual Therapy into my work.

Professional Development:

I obtained a Professional Diploma in Counseling & Psychotherapy from the Tivoli Institute, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin.

I hold accredited membership of the Irish Association of Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy (IAHIP) and the Irish Association for Counseling & Psychotherapy (IACP).

I also trained as a psychosexual therapist with Relate, U.K. I am accredited to the British Association for Sexual and Relationship Therapy (BASRT).

•    I also hold a Certificate in Supervision and in Critical Incident Stress Management.

Psychosexual therapy is for people who have sexual difficulties in their relationship.
This can be brought on by stress, illness, and the birth of a baby or other life events.


•    When the cause is complicated, I am skilled to help the client to explore and understand the reasons.
•    The cause of the problem is looked at and work is done on a possible solution.

This is a private and confidential service available for couples and individuals
that have specific relationship and sexual problems.

It is preferable to attend as a couple, but individuals can also be helped.
It can be difficult to talk about intimate, personal difficulties like sexual activity to a stranger. However I am trained to help individuals and couples that find that sex may be the  cause of their difficulties.

Whatever the problem, it really helps to talk about it and to work out if it has a psychological or physical cause. Often it is a bit of both. As your therapist, I will help you to decide if a medical check-up is needed.

I listen to the client with empathy, congruence and positive regard that gives him/her greater self-awareness and understanding.

•    I explore the client’s problems in a safe, non-judgmental and confidential setting.
•    We all have the ability to heal ourselves and the capacity to change, if we wish to do so.

MATTHEW CONNOLLY - REIKI, REFLEXOLOGY, INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE GALWAY IRELAND

Therapist Matthew Connoly: Reiki, Refloxology & Indian Head Massage

Qualifications:

Reiki Practitioner to Master Level
Diploma in African Reflexology
Certificate in Indian Head Massage

Registered practitioner with ARCHTI
(Association of Registered Complementary Health Therapists Of Ireland)
www.irishtherapists.ie

About me -

In search of relief from my own lower back pain in 2005, I turned to
Acupuncture, and I soon found myself on a journey that would teach me
a new, more balanced way of living. Beginning with the study and
practice of African Reflexology I began to discover powerful methods
to release and heal our energy systems, and bring balance and harmony
to mind, body and soul and to our external lives.

Reiki - Universal Life Force Energy

is a 'laying of hands' healing technique which was developed by Dr.
Mikao Usui who lived in Japan from 1865-1926.

Reiki has undergone many changes and transformations since its
introduction to the western world in the 1970's, but it remains a
wonderful tool for healing, personal development and empowerment on
all levels.
Dr. Usui originally developed his healing technique as -

"A method to achieve personal perfection"

Today, the word ‘Reiki’, pronounced Ray-Key, is a Japanese word
meaning Universal Life Force Energy.
‘Rei’ means universal, and ‘Ki’, or ‘Chi’, is a subtle energy that
sustains us. So ‘Reiki’ is
Universal Life Force Energy.

Reflexology -

(sometimes called zone therapy) is a therapy in which the nerve
endings primarily in the feet are stimulated by specific massage
techniques to effect changes in another part of the body and thereby
create health and help overcome disease.

Although there is scriptural evidence to suggest that reflexology was
being practised as far back as ancient Egypt, the science of
reflexology used today was founded by Dr William Fitzgerald, an
American ear nose and throat surgeon. He noticed that pressure on
specific areas of the body produced a anaesthetising effect on a
related area. Developing his theory, he divided the body into ten
equal zones which ended in the feet and hands.

In the 1930's a massage therapist called Eunice Ingham refined Dr
Fitzgerald's zones and developed what is now known as 'reflexology'.
She observed that congestion or tension in any part of the foot
mirrored congestion or tension in a related part of the body.
Therefore, treating the areas of the feet could have a relaxing and
healing effect on different organs and tissues inside the body.

Indian Head Massage -

Indian Head Massage is the ideal stress-busting treatment for anyone
who is suffering from aching shoulders, a tight neck, tension
headache, eye strain, insomnia, or poor concentration. It is a safe,
simple yet effective therapy renowned for relieving symptoms of
stress.

Benefits -

   * Clears the mind and revitalized mental capacity, so improving
      alertness and concentration
   * General "balancing", giving a sense of calm and peace
   * Works on balancing the Chakras by releasing stagnant Prana so
      the body can function in a more harmonious manner
   * Calms the respiratory system
   * Improves blood circulation to the head and neck
   * Increased blood flow enhances nourishment to the muscles which
      can promote hair growth
   * Improves lymphatic drainage from the head and neck
   * Improves muscle tone and mobility in the head, neck and shoulder area
   * Increases circulation of cerebral spinal fluid around the brain
   * Physically revitalising
   * Relieves mental and physical strain, so helping to improve
      concentration and productivity

physical, psychological and spiritual aspects of your being  to

of spirit of each individual and nourishing that spirit as a path

environment.

What are Angels?

The word angel is taken from the Greek word Angelos which means messenger. It is believed that angels bring us messages to guide and protect us. Angels were created as servants of creation and their service is to work with each of us regardless of who we are. Everyone has equal access to Angels and their divine assistance. Angels translate that which is beyond our ordinary consciousness into a form that we are capable of understanding. Angels are Gods loving Messengers, our connection between heaven and earth. They only surround you with love and light and healing energy. There are no limits to what angels can do in your life. They are very powerful beings. If you don’t quiet yet fully believe in angels, you will know that they are real after asking for and receiving their help few times.

 During a treatment, Olga connects with the ‘universal energy’ through her hands and uses it to diagnose energy flow in the client. This is done for as long as is needed. Loving, positive energy is then channeled and reintegrated back into the newly-cleansed cellular area so as not to leave a void and to restore balance. Energy Therapy is the art of healing with the pure energy of spirit. This universal life energy surrounds all matter, especially the human body, mind, and spirit.   Energy should flow unrestricted within our body, in a system similar to our blood vessel system. Olga gives this energy to nourish and heal our organs and systems, and to maintain physical, emotional, mental and spiritual balance.
