Great Review of Elmes Acupuncture on Yelp

"I visited Ursula for a course of around 6 weekly acupuncture treatments in advance of undergoing IVF. The location of the clinic is central and convenient. Ursula was the ultimate professional and the treatment rooms in the spa make for a lovely relaxed atmosphere. I'm delighted to report I am now pregnant and have no doubt the acupuncture played its part. Thank you Ursula!"

Great Review of Elmes Acupuncture on Google Map!

"Had my first acupuncture experience with Ursula and honestly say i'll be back for more, very relaxing, Ursula really makes you feel at ease and explains whats she's doing thoroughly, didn't try to oversell any treatment the way some places would try to recommend a course of treatments, I tried the cosmetic acupuncture and while I don't have lines I did feel I looked tired a lot and i'm bright eyed today and very happy indeed. already booked my next appointment and if I could give the review more the then 5 stars I would :-)"

How To Make Your Own Sandwich Chalk Board (With Dad's Help!)

I wanted to put a chalk sandwich board outside my practice but was shocked to find that the smallest sandwich board cost €100 + VAT! So I decided make my own board which was easy peasy (with Dad's help!) If you would like to make your own, here is a step by step guide below;

1. You will need;

• A door hinge
• Two even pieces of  wood
• Chalk board paint (I bought this in B & Q for €10)
• Screwdriver
• Paintbrush
• Chalk

2. Using a Screwdriver, attach the door hinge to the top of one piece of wood, facing the hinge downwards, then attach the other piece of wood to the same hinge. You can also attach a chain to the boards, so it doesn't open too wide, but this is optional.

3. When the hinge is securely attached, stand the board upright, paint the board with the chalk board paint on both sides. It takes about 4 hours for the paint to dry.

4. Voila! Your chalk board is ready, you can use any colour chalk to write or draw on your board.

Electro-Acupuncture is a safe and painless form of Acupuncture in which pairs of Acupuncture needles  are attached to an electro machine that produces a continuous electric pulses between them.  It is mainly used in the treatment of pain relief, frozen shoulder, stroke, facial neuralgia, facial paralysis and bell's palsy.

Electro-Acupuncture is available at Elmes Acupuncture.  For more information on Acupuncture, check out our website here http://www.elmesacupuncture.ie/acu.html

Cosmetic Acupuncture

Cosmetic Acupuncture – Facial Rejuvenation – The Acupuncture Facelift

Cosmetic Acupuncture has become a favorite among celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Angelina Jolie and Pierce Brosnan.  

Scientific studies show that  Cosmetic Acupuncture improves muscle tone, boosts collagen production, stimulates the circulation of oxygen and blood, and re-balances lymphatic for a dynamic return to youth, vitality and radiance.

 After a detailed consultation, tiny disposable needles are inserted into specially selected acupuncture points on the face, neck, arms and legs.

Cosmetic Acupuncture is the ultimate holistic beauty to reverse and prevent to signs of aging.

Studies show that among 300 cases treated with facial acupuncture, 90 % had marked beneficial results with only one course of treatment (International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture, 1996).

The benefits of Cosmetic Acupuncture include:

• Elimination of fine lines and dramatic reduction of wrinkles
• Facial contouring to reduce or eliminate jowls and double chins.
• Eye contour redefinition to banish puffiness and dark circles, lift eyelids and enhance eyes, for a brighter, younger, refreshed look.
• Reduced dryness and elimination of excess sebum production resulting in visible pore tightening and added skin lustre 
•  Increased skin oxygenation and elimination of toxins for a glowing complexion

Recommended course of 12 treatments once or twice per week
