Martina is a practicing Acupuncturist for the last 14years.She obtained her Diploma in Acupuncture from the Acupuncture Foundation of Ireland and completed her post graduate studies in Nanjing University under the mentorship of Dr Gu Zhaojin at the 2nd Affiliated Hospital.
It was was during her years working as a General and Paediatric nurse that Martina came to realise that conventional medicine sometimes failed to address the role of stress and emotional issues as the causative factors in many diseases. She also became aware of the subtle connection between mind and body. This led her to explore Complementary therapies. She has studied Reflexology, Swedish Massage, Reiki, Acupuncture and Craniosacral Therapy.
Martina is passionate about bringing deep healing to her clients and sometimes may use a combination of therapies to obtain the desired effect for her clients.
