About
Stephanie Dornan
I am an empathetic and dedicated acupuncturist specialising in women’s health and fertility having completed advanced training in gynaecology, fertility and obstetrics.
I started my career practicing law but have always been interested in the benefits of Eastern medicine having received acupuncture since I was a child. The stress of the legal world, fertility issues and a desire to find a more fulfilling career eventually led me to the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM) in the UK where I completed 3,500+ hours of training and was awarded a first-class degree in Acupuncture.
I regularly attend conferences and courses to continue my professional development, including completing Naava Carmen's Advanced Fertility Diploma and Dr Trevor Wing's Post-Graduate Diploma in Obstetrics, Gynaecology and Fertility. My training covered both female and male fertility; reproductive immunology; assisted reproductive techniques (including IVF), complex pregnancy conditions; PCOS; endometriosis and ovulatory and hormonal disorders. I am trained to think outside the box, question a little more and dig a little deeper, always taking the time to look beyond symptoms and understand the true root causes. I also regularly treat a broad range of other conditions including digestive problems, stress, anxiety, insomnia and emotional issues.
I am accredited by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board (BAAB) and am a professional member of the Acupuncture Foundation Professional Association of Ireland (AFPA). As a member of this professional body, I am fully qualified and registered, hold Professional Indemnity Insurance and am committed to abiding by strict codes of ethics and safe practice.
