Raphaela McCormack is a certified Qi Gong Therapist, completing her studies with Master Lisa B.

In 2021 I studied the Foundation Course in Biofield Tuning and in the Spring of 2022 I completed the Practitioner Course and became a certified Biofield Practitioner. 

I am happy to share this new energy work in my practice.                                                                            

  " I grew up in the West of Ireland and I come from a family of three generations of physicians and surgeons, so of course Western Medicine was integral part of my early life. 

I have always known deep within me, there had to be more to health and wellness than just the Western approach, and so my long journey began towards a more holistic practice.

Becoming a vegetarian and studying T'ai Chi in my early twenties, eventually led me to discover Qi Gong. 
 

In 2001 I began my studies in Qi Gong and immediately knew I had found my passion and what to me was a way to bring health and wellness to the body".
