About Anna

Anna Campbell, BA, ITEC Dip, Lic. Ac cAc, MAFPA is an acupuncturist trained in China and Ireland in the doctrine of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Although originally a graduate of Microbiology in Trinity College Dublin, she was always looking to see how treating the whole-being could complement the detailed, scientific approach. This mutual appreciation of the scientific and the holistic provides Anna with a deep understanding of the body and its causes and effects (underlying issue and presenting ailment).

Since 2010, Anna has been working with acupuncture and massage, treating everything from the common cold to more intricate and sensitive conditions like fertility and gynaecological syndromes. Anna brings a beautiful authenticity to her work by living the values that she espouses. She places a huge emphasis on nutrition and lifestyle and all treatments include consultation with advice, as well as the treatment of the presenting symptoms or issues.

Testimonials

“I went to Anna for Mayan Arvigo Therapy, to help get my monthly cycle back on track as I had not had a period in a year, I also had acupuncture with her to help relieve stress and digestive problems. After a week of doing my self care my periods returned and have been regular every since. I feel relieved from stress, fatigue and any other ailments every time I leave her practice, my cycle is completely back to normal, and I feel really great, I would recommend her to anyone! She has a wealth of knowledge and a very calming nature, which adds to the lovely experience with each visit”

Kate, Dublin

“I have had the pleasure of attending two sessions with Anna, I found the treatment to be exactly what I had needed and found Anna incredibly caring, knowledgeable and open to my questions. My digestion was not working properly and I found myself suffering with slight anxiety.
As I was unsure of the treatments Anna offered she was so knowledgeable and able to recommend the Arvigo Therapy massage and acupuncture to help me. They both were amazing and I really benefited from it. I have been doing my self care and have noticed an improvement in both my digestion and general health both mentally and physically.
I would highly recommend Anna to anybody, she is very experienced and in tune with her abilities and her clients needs.”

Fiona, Dublin

“I have suffered with bad neck strain on and off for about 2 years. I tried therapies such as massage and physiotherapy which only gave me temporary relief. Anna was highly recommended by a friend. When I went for my first treatment I wasn’t sure what to expect, having been disappointed with previous therapies elsewhere. But just one treatment of a combination of massage, cupping and acupuncture gave me enormous relief. The added bonus was that it was very enjoyable and I got other benefits like sleeping better in the nights following. Anna listens to you and takes your concerns into account. She treats everyone and every case individually, tailoring your sessions for your needs specifically. I would have no hesitations about recommending Anna for a wide range of conditions.”

Training & Continual Professional Development

  • Anna trained with the Acupuncture Foundation of Ireland which is affiliated with the Nanjing university of Traditional Chinese Medicine China.

    She completed her licentiate with a certified clinical internship in the 454 Military Hospital in Nanjing China in 2010. She further developed her skills in acupuncture techniques and Chinese cupping here.

    She has done post graduate training in abdominal acupuncture, and trained with Jani White in London in Acupuncture and Fertility and Gynaecology and the protocols for assisted reproductive techniques (www.naturechild.co.uk).

  • Anna uses cupping on the back along either side of the spine and along the sacrum. Cupping therapy, is a safe, non-invasive technique, and has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years.

    By creating suction and negative pressure, cupping treats muscle pain and spasms of the back and neck, drains excess fluids and toxins, loosens adhesions, connective tissue and stubborn knots in soft tissue. It also stimulates blood circulation and brings increased blood flow to nourish stagnant muscles and skin.

    It enhances the flow of energy, stimulates the peripheral nervous system, activates the lymphatic system, clears colon blockages, and helps to activate and clear the arteries, veins, and capillaries, and improves varicose veins.

  • Anna began her training in Belfast with Maria Rafferty and then progressed to training in North America with the Arvigo Institute and the founder Dr Rosita Arvigo.

    Anna is a fully Certified Arvigo Practitioner. She is one of 5 practitioners in the Republic of Ireland trained in this technique.

    All of Anna’s therapy methods complement conventional medicine and in no way interfere with any medical treatment.
