Your practitioner
A nurse’s precision.
A healer’s patience.
My name is Anaflor, though most people know me as Anna. I’ve been a Registered General Nurse since 1989, including 20 years in vascular theatre at one of Dublin’s major hospitals, with international experience in Abu Dhabi and San Diego.
Acupuncture found me in 2010, when I went looking for natural support for allergic rhinitis, fertility, and overall wellbeing. What helped me then is what I now offer you: clinical care and holistic healing in one calm, welcoming room.

Words from clients
Small shifts, lasting change.
“After three years of trying everything on my fertility journey, acupuncture with Anna was the first thing that felt like genuine care. I'm now in my second trimester.”
“I came in with migraines I'd had for years. After six sessions, they're mostly gone. Anna listens, really listens. You can feel the years of nursing in how she cares.”
“The facial rejuvenation sessions are my hour of calm. My skin looks brighter, but honestly it's how rested I feel afterwards that keeps me coming back.”
“What I appreciate most is the calm. The room, the pace, Anna's presence: everything feels considered. I sleep properly again.”
