Testimonials

"I never had Acupuncture before for my wellbeing and managing stress, and to be honest, I wasn't really sure it would work. Thankfully, Mark was suggested to me by my physio and I'm very happy to say that I am now in a great place, very much in control of how I now feel. I would highly recommend Mark as I am in a great place now :-)"

"I have been going to Mark Goulding for acupuncture for a number of years now and I can't recommend him enough. He is extremely knowledgeable and supportive, and has a calm and friendly disposition which makes you feel instantly relaxed and at ease. The clinic is easily accessible with on-site parking and getting there is completely stress-free. You don't have to deal with heavy traffic the way you do in towns/cities or scramble to find a parking space, and worry about parking meters/time running out, etc. The clinic is literally minutes from the N11 and nestled in the countryside so the surroundings are stunning – every appointment feels like a mini retreat. Mark's scheduling is also excellent – every appointment is on time with zero wait time. This is amazing, especially when you're busy. All of these factors combine for a lovely calm, relaxing and positive experience."

"An excellent acupuncturist who tailors treatment to suit the needs of the individual. Mark is extremely professional, knowledgeable and empathic. He completed a very thorough initial evaluation with me where he also listened in depth to my needs and offered expert advice. After the first couple of visits, I really started to feel the benefits. The location of his practice is absolutely stunning which is just an added bonus! I could not recommend Mark more highly"

Vanessa Keogh

“Mark's clinic is in a beautiful setting and a very calm serene space. Mark puts you at ease and does a detailed initial appointment to ensure he has a full picture of your health. Every session I was so relaxed that I fell asleep! Would highly recommend Mark”

Julie Faulkner

“I went to Mark for tension headaches and felt better within a couple of sessions. His clinic space is so relaxing that I nearly fell asleep. He was very professional and lovely to deal with. Before I arrived he sent me a document to fill in, which was very detailed but by answering those questions he figured out very quickly in the first session what would work best for me and it did! Would recommend him. Thanks very much Mark.”

“I was diagnosed with onset adult asthma in 2018. I was put on a daily dose of antibiotics, steroids, inhalers and nasal sprays. While the chronic cough abated, the extensive mucus being produced particularly in the mornings and at night persisted. I underwent extensive tests in hospital over the course of 12 months to determine the cause of the mucus production including allergy testing. Nothing helped and I felt continuously exhausted. I met Mark and spoke to him about my condition. Mark introduced me to TCM, the concept of dampness and explained the importance of diet to me. I followed his TCM dietary  recommendation and after circa 5 weeks I woke up one morning feeling  normal with no mucus. I couldn't believe it. This has continued to improve. My energy levels are back up and I'm now off all antibiotics and oral steroids. I don't know myself thanks to Mark and his advice”

“I was recently diagnosed by my doctor with a case of shingles (herpes zoster), which caused me extreme pain around my lower back and side. I had heard that acupuncture might help so I spoke to Mark Goulding and he suggested we do treatments each day. After about 2 or 3 days the treatment began to work well and after 6 treatments the pain had virtually gone. I am delighted with the results.”

Mick Loughlin, Roundwood

“Mark, I attended a number of sessions with you earlier this year for sciatica. The last session was in June. It worked brilliantly; I haven’t had any pain or trouble with it since.”

Tom Purdy, Shankill

“I injured my leg and was in quite a lot of pain and I went to Mark Goulding in Bray who placed a few tiny needles (not painful) in my leg. After the first visit I was surprised to notice a slight improvement. Mark asked me to come once each week for the next 3 or 4 weeks. After the 3rd visit the pain was almost gone and after the 4th it had gone completely. I am delighted with the result and would recommend acupuncture to anyone who is considering it.”

Michael McAuley, Dun Laoghaire

“For many years I have suffered from sinusitis. I went to Mark Goulding in Bray who discussed the importance of diet in my condition. After 2 treatments the pain had subsided significantly and after 3 it had gone altogether. I had a total of 5 treatments and I have not had another sinus attack in the last 4 months. I am delighted with the result.  I would certainly recommend acupuncture to anyone who suffers from sinus or indeed other problems.”

Stephnie Veale, Bray

“I had been suffering acute pain for some time when passing urine, especially in the mornings. After a few sessions of acupuncture with Mark the pain gradually decreased and eventually disappeared. My five weekly sessions have provided me with great relief and I would highly recommend the treatment to similar sufferers.”

Noel, Bray

“Having been on HRT for almost 10 years I was advised by my doctor to stop taking it about 2 years ago. Since then I have had terrible problems with hot flushes. I decided to give acupuncture a try having heard that it might be able to help. I saw Mark Goulding who gave me acupuncture and some herbs and I noticed a big improvement straight away! After only a few sessions (once a week) there was a huge reduction in the number and strength of the hot flushes. I would definitely recommend anyone who is suffering from menopausal symptoms to try acupuncture and herbs.”

Bernadette Quiney, Bray

“I never responded well to IVF drugs and my left ovary never produced any follicles. I looked into acupuncture on the net and found Mark Goulding and began acupuncture straight away. After the first week of IVF drugs on my next IVF cycle I had a scan and I couldn’t believe it! There were 5 follicles on the right ovary and 2 on the left. I went on to have a healthy baby. Acupuncture helped me to relax during my IVF cycle, gave me more energy, and also seemed to ‘kick start’ my left ovary. I can’t recommend acupuncture enough.”
