Leslie Salazar
Acupuncturist (Dip.Ac, ACI) & Homeopath (Lic ,ISH)
About me:
I am a second-generation acupuncturist, growth in a medical environment – GP Mother, however as a teenager I was suffering migraines and panic attacks. Trying to find a no invasive treatment, my mother found that homeopathy was the solution, after that experience,she also specialized in homoeopathy and traditional Chinese acupuncture
My journey into holistic healing began at a very young age. I took my first steps in prescribing homeopathy and assisting with acupuncture within my social circle, guided by a natural curiosity about the body’s ability to heal and a deep desire to help others. Life later brought me back to this path in a more profound way.
After leaving home, the stress of livign abroad and constant change began to affect my health. When I became ill, I turned to homeopathy for support. From that moment, I committed myself fully to the study and practice of functional medicine. I began with acupuncture, developing a strong foundation in understanding the body’s energetic systems, and later deepened my work through homeopathy.
It is amazing to see how health improves with changes in lifestyle and giving the body extra help with acupuncture or homoeopathy, etc. As the father of modern medicine said. "Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity “. Hippocrates.
If you suffer from pain or other complex health condition, I invite you to give yourself the opportunity and try acupuncture. If you have questions about treating your complaint with acupuncture, we are happy to answer your doubts and questions.
I received my Diploma in Acupuncture (Dip. Ac.) from the Acupuncture Foundation of Ireland following three years of in-depth study. This training combined both clinical practice and theoretical learning, equipping me to treat a wide range of conditions using acupuncture.
I also studied Chinese herbal medicine under Sifu Li Zhi Xin at the Li Ping School, further expanding my understanding of traditional Chinese medicine.
I strongly believe that learning is a lifelong journey. Continuing professional development is central to both my personal and professional growth. Since obtaining my Licentiate in Acupuncture, I have completed advanced training in areas including obstetrics and pregnancy support, as well as mental health care, under the guidance of Sifu Han. These additional qualifications enable me to support patients through some of the most sensitive and transformative stages of their lives.
Since January 2026, I have served as Treasurer of the Acupuncture Council of Ireland. In this role, I am committed to raising awareness of the benefits of acupuncture across Ireland. Together with my fellow board members, we work to ensure that all registered practitioners uphold the highest standards of professional and ethical practice.
I also received a Licentiate as a Homeopath from the Irish School of Homeopathy (Lic ISH). This licentiate was gained through 4 years of studying and practising; I also had the opportunity to do an internship in Africa in 2018 with Homeopathy for Health for Africa. The Irish Society of Homeopaths accredits me.
