About Well-Being-Dublin (Anne Hughes)

Hi, I'm Anne Hughes of Well-Being-Dublin; a highly qualified and experienced, advanced-acupuncturist, herbalist and naturopath based in Clontarf, Dublin 2.

The services I offer include the following:

acupuncture, cupping, auricular acupuncture, moxa, gua sha, herbal medicine, detailed dietary and lifestyle advice, plus individually-tailored techniques for clients to create their own on-going strategy for enhanced health and speedy recovery from presenting symptoms/underlying conditions.

I work with men, women and teenagers, using a comprehensive holistic approach to treat illness and enhance all-round health for a wide variety of health conditions, including but not limited to, the following:

Pain Relief, Insomnia, Anxiety, Depression, low-energy, Addiction, Arthritis,Migraines, Backache, Sports-injuries, Stress-relief, Neck pain, Sinusitis, Asthma, Gastritis, I.B.S. Constipation. Knee-pain, Foot pain and more.

My background degree and masters, prior to becoming a holistic practitioner, are in the fields of psychology and Addiction.

Therefore, health challenges related to psychological-emotional health and dependence of all kinds from smoking to prescription and non-prescription drugs, are areas I'm very experienced in treating, have a keen understanding of and empathy towards.

I also have a particular interest in pain-relief as my training in Canada was in both Chinese and Japanese acupuncture and the mix of diagnostics and treatment protocols from both is particularly effective to eradicate pain

However, overall I genuinely find it most rewarding to treat as widely as possible.

That's so as to continually enhance my learning and also to offer my services more widely to those who I can treat with the multi-faceted approach of the three holistic modalities, Acupuncture, Herbs and Naturopathy.

ABOUT:

After my M.A. (hons) in Addiction studies, a short course in Ear Acupuncture for Detoxification led me to decide to become an Acupuncturist.

I then gained my Dip. Ac. (hons) after 3 years training in Toronto, Canada, at "The Acupuncture Institute" a 1600 hour full time programme, (an equivalent is not offered in Ireland), and have been in practice now in Ireland as an acupuncturist for over 10 years.

6 years ago I graduated from the College of Naturaopthic Medicine in Dublin, as a herbalist and naturopath and have integrated these powerful modalities into my Well-Being-Dublin practice from then on.

I'm a fully insured practitioner and a registered member of the regulatory bodies of the A.C.I. (Acupuncture Council of Ireland), The I. R.H. (The Irish Register of Herbalists) and the I.N.A. (The Irish Naturopaths Association).

My acupuncture treatment costs are partly re-imbursable with a variety of health care providers including V.H.I. GioHealth, Irish Life Health to Laya Healthcare.

My work has featured on TV3's Today show, The Ryan Turbity Show, and in various magazines from Woman's Way to Social & Personal magazine, (who referred to me professionally as: "ONE OF THE BEST THERAPISTS I HAVE EVER MET").

Thanks for checking out my page here and feel free to call or e-mail me today at for a no-obligation chat about how acupuncture, herbalism or naturopathy could help you.

From the moment I walked through the door I felt at ease and in safe hands

5 50 Acupuncture Treatment

I feel so lucky to have found this clinic. From the moment I walked through the door I felt at ease and in safe hands. Anne has a very gentle way of helping you to start to turn your health around. I had been dealing with sinus issues for the last number of years which culminated recently in a very acute episode that was ongoing for 5 weeks before I booked in with Well Being Dublin.

I was at the end of my tether and really didn’t know if anything could be done. Through acupuncture, nutrition and herbs, Anne has helped me start to feel well again and put me on a path to good health by giving me the tools to help myself. I really couldn’t recommend Anne highly enough.

Treated by: Ms Anne Hughes

Hi Suzanne, I really appreciate all the time you took to go into this detail and your very kind words, thanks so much. 🙏. It’s been an absolute pleasure working together with you and seeing the changes that have occurred using the acupuncture, herbs and dietary/ naturopath instruction for home. You’re a keen learner and really engaged in your own healing too, soaking it up and making the home tweaks that sustain results. Thanks again for letting others know of your experiences and results and for choosing to work with me. Best wishes, Anne (Hughes) @WellBeingDublin

I always felt totally comfortable both during consultations and during needle treatment

5 50 Acupuncturist Consultation

Anne is an excellent acupuncturist - for her manner first and foremost, which is warm, friendly, and open. I always felt totally comfortable both during consultations and during needle treatment.

Anne is truly professional and an expert in her discipline and she helped me greatly. I always look forward to attending her clinic - the treatment room itself is a haven of white which promotes bliss and calm.

I have learned much from attending acupuncture - acupressure, nutrition, Taoism, and general self-care. Attending Anne's clinic was my introduction to TCM and I really feel a whole new world was opened up to me and I now am and will always be a devotee of Chinese medicine.

Treated by: Ms Anne Hughes

Hi Niamh, You’re kind review of our work together is much appreciated !:) It was a pleasure to assist and collaborate with you, to optimise you’re health and address the specifics which you were seeking to change too. You’re own sunny enthusiasm for and interest in the topics of Traditional Chinese Medicine and naturopathy was a joy to watch burgeoning, into a love for this special empowering mind body toolbox too. It’s a little bit addictive this learning and who knows what great places it will bring you !:) Thanks again Niamh for sharing your thoughts on your acupuncture experiences and where it’s led 🙌 Best wishes, Anne @Well-Being-Dublin

My stress levels decreased too which was an improvement to my overall health

5 50 Acupuncturist Consultation • Paid: €60

I had the Chinese acupuncture with Anne for three or four weeks as I was looking for an alternative method in order to stabilise hormones imbalance, tiredness and fatigue a few months after having my baby boy.

The tiredness levels were much lower towards our last sessions than they were when we started, my stress levels decreased too which was an improvement to my overall health. I'd definitely recommend Anne because I felt her treatment worked for what I needed help with.

Treated by: Ms Anne Hughes

Hi Sahara, Lovely to hear from you and thank you so much for your kind words and having me be part of your healing journey. Apologies for the delay by the way, the website didn’t send any alert as to your message unfortunately. Best wishes, Anne

You have really boosted my confidence

5 50 Acupuncturist Consultation

Hi Anne, I was there a few days ago and met with you. The past days since I left your place I have been feeling really different positively. You have really boosted my confidence and it's quite significant towards people and most importantly I feel so much better and happier. After I had a meeting with you, I went to lunch and had a steak! I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it and felt so much energy. So, Thank You! Keep doing the work you do and changing people's lives, God, the divine, the universe, the source or whatever resonates with you will give you more wisdom to sustain you. Hope you are keeping well.
Sorry for the long email but just wanted to tell you this. Stay well and see you again.

Highly recommended.

Treated by: Ms Anne Hughes

Hi Lizzie, thanks so much for coming in for your naturopathy consultation and subsequent advice on diet and lifestyle. It was a pleasure to work with you to resolve the specific issues you were in to see me for. (And I'm delighted you went straight out and started into one of the reccomendations of red meat to enhance iron intake:). Your kind words you wrote here are very much appreciated and all the best to you in the future. It will be well deserved !:)

I felt it was the right place for me

5 50 Acupuncturist Consultation

When I arrived in Dublin in 2016, I had been suffering from occasional severe anxiety and depression for several years. After no success with mainstream medicine, I decided it was time to see what naturopathy had to offer. I am very glad that I did. Through her diagnosis and expertise, Anne was able to help me build a holistic regime that gave me the power to reclaim my health and maintain that balance. I felt improvement within the first several weeks and with continued practice of Anne's recommendations, I continue to feel better than I have in a long time!

I had been doing some research about naturopathy in Dublin and Well-Being Dublin popped up in my Facebook feed. I saw some of the posts and reviews and instinctively felt it was the right place for me. Anne is a wonderful practitioner. She is kind, caring, and has great empathy for her clients. I felt very supported through our work together. I highly recommend her!

Treated by: Ms Anne Hughes

Dear Christine, Thank you so much for you're lovely feedback when writing about your time with me. It was an honour to be chosen to be part of your healing journey and a pleasure to work with you. I'm so happy that you're in a much better place now with the things that you sought to adress and of course so much of that was down to your diligence in implementing various strategies, techniques and tweaks !:) All the best to you in the future Christine and thanks again !:) Anne

I felt relief almost immediately

5 50 Acupuncture Treatment • Paid: €100

I work a lot on the computer so I regularly have some fatigue in my hands. Anne was familiar with my problem and had a lot of advice to offer and remedies to provide. In particular she used acupuncture for my hand and also to help generate some total body relaxation for me. It was a lovely experience and quite effective--I felt relief almost immediately and it lasted me months afterward. Anne's service is a really good value, but better than that was how valuable getting to know her a bit has been. She's incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, and is very genuine and has a wonderful disposition. The way she treats you is professional yet intimate, like a friend, and that left a lasting impression on me regarding alternative health practices in general and acupuncture in particular.

I sought out Anne because of some personal recommendations about the kind of care she provides. My expectations were deeply exceeded and I'd wholeheartedly recommend Anne and Well Being Dublin to anyone.

With Anne you are going to find a therapist in which you can really trust

4.9 50 Acupuncturist Consultation • Paid: €50

Acupuncture Treatment

I went to see Anne for few acupuncture treatments and I had the chance to take some herbs from her, too. In both cases the treatments were really helpful, she helps you to feel confident with the therapy. You really feel to be with a therapist who cares about you and her work. I'd like to recommend this therapist even for who is scared from needles and for who is going to try acupuncture for the first time. With Anne you are going to find a therapist in which you can really trust.

Thanks so much Chiara for your lovely feedback and for coming to me for acupuncture and herbs. Best wishes, Anne

Very relaxing and very helpful.

5 50 Acupuncture Treatment • Paid: €350

Acupuncture and Herbal Treatment

Very pleased with the treatment. I began seeing Anne every two weeks and as I started to feel better the sessions were less frequent. I had been attending doctors for two years with no improvement but after the acupuncture and herbal plan tailored specifically to me, I recovered within a few weeks.

I found sessions with Anne very relaxing and very helpful. I could contact Anne at any time and would always get an email or a phone call back asap. Anne is a very professional and caring person who genuinely tries to do everything to help. I couldn't recommend her highly enough

Fantastically, and overall I have saved myself a lot of money

5 50 Acupuncture Treatment • Paid: €270

Everything was absolutely great, Anne has a great personality and is very open & easygoing - yet she offers a deep insightful view to the causes of the illness that I was suffering with. I can say that the therapy provided definitely helped me to get back to health and I will be coming back in the future if any problems arise again.

Herbs prescribed by her have been working fantastically, and overall I have saved myself a lot of money and health by going to 'traditional' GP.

One more good thing- the price was even lower than stated, as Ann has taken into consideration that I was not working back then. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
