About Us

Emilia Rowan.jpg

Founded by Emilia Rowan, her practice as a Five Element Acupuncturist began from being a patient herself.

Having been in a car accident in her early twenties, Emilia was living with daily pain. She was exhausted with her drawn-out recovery, trying physiotherapy, osteopathy, diagnostic scans; and nothing helped or gave her a clear idea of what was wrong. An osteopath she had been attending regularly, referred her to see a Five Element Acupuncturist. Going along without any knowledge of the treatment, she was astounded at how different she felt, and was no longer in pain. The improvement was life changing. 

From here, her interest and curiosity began. While working in hospitality and as ongoing thoughts of ‘what am I doing?’ increased, she made the jump to study Five Element Acupuncture. After 3 years of training, she set up her practice, feeling thrilled and excited for what was to come. Having seen the benefits and great changes that have come about in her clients through regular treatment, she has a strong belief in the empowering ability of acupuncture. With a particular interest in treating women, providing a healing space for them to be heard and assisted in their growth and well-being.

Emilia trained at the College of Five Element Acupuncture in Dublin. She is a registered member of the Acupuncture Council of Ireland.

Testimonials


“Going to Emilia was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I used to struggle with really bad PMT and as a result, kept burning out. I realised I had to do something about it. My sister recommended Emilia, and I am so glad she did. Her warmth and genuine concern, immediately put me at ease. I go once a month now and I love it. I feel like I’ve had a fresh start. I feel balanced, self-assured and have so much more energy and vitality. I finally feel like I am getting the most out of my life."

“Emilia is the absolute best! Her personality and knowledge confirm that. I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy the benefits of her treatments for the last few months. Always mindful and patient, Emilia puts you at ease by explaining everything she is doing. I could feel the benefits of acupuncture really quickly and felt they lasted for a long time. Words can’t describe how highly I recommend her.”
-Ivan

“I started going to Emilia soon after 2 big life changes. I had tension pains and was very emotional and stressed. Her acupuncture approach really helped my emotions level off and regulate my cycle/period pains after I went off the pill. I always feel comfortable being honest with her. She has a very calming presence.”
-Niamh

“For many years, I have had really bad migraines. I have tried many things but they always came back. As well as my bad mood, as a result of the migraines on my day to day living.
Emilia offered me her help, I was a little incredulous and apprehensive but as soon as I started my sessions with Emilia, my life took an immense change. The migraines disappeared. I have been going to Emilia for over a year now and it's like my therapy. Emilia is the best, I thank her a million times for the help she gave me.”
-Sofia

“Feeling a little lost, a friend recommended Vitala to me a little under a year ago and I have been seeing Emilia regularly ever since!
I felt an almost instant shift in my mindset and after a few months of treatment, I felt grounded and more capable of dealing with stress and anxiety.
Emilia is an incredible listener, I have always left her practice feeling lighter and more positive. I could not recommend booking a session more, I truly believe everyone could benefit from treatment with Emilia!”
-Jessica

“I look forward to going to Emilia for treatment. Each time I come out feeling refreshed and stronger and can take on everything that I’m dealt with. We have a quick chat and she instinctively knows what my body and mind needs. It’s great. Emilia is my “go-to” when I’m feeling overwhelmed and can’t cope- love it!”
-Nicki

"My experience with Emilia has been nothing short of wonderful! I have been going to Emilia to treat hormone imbalance, physical pain (back, shoulders) and low energy among other things throughout the past few months and every treatment has been wonderful. I'd never gotten 5 element acupuncture done before, so far I have found it really effective. Emilia's approach to treatment is thoughtful, her bedside manner is friendly and compassionate. I would (and I do) recommend her to anyone and everyone."
