About Me
Gideon Seth Ries
Gideon is an experienced Osteopath. He treats a wide range of conditions in people of all ages. He has found that the body knows the fine detail of the treatment it needs to heal from injuries and that if given the opportunity to direct the healing process it will achieve the best outcome. By paying close attention to the individual’s body tissues, through palpation (touch sense), combined with information from the patient’s medical history, past injuries and lifestyle choices, the blockages, pains or injuries usually reveal their precise origins and become amenable to treatment.
Gideon enjoys the challenges that his patients bring to him and with the right perception, diagnosis, attention to detail and contact pressure the patient’s body is able to release the blockages, realign and restore itself to health. It’s very satisfying to be part of the cure and see health restored and happy patients!
“I ran a very busy full-time practice for 35 years, with more than 20 years at the Oak Clinic in Killaloe, Co Clare. In recent years I have downsized and relocated nearer to my home in East Clare. I graduated in Osteopathic Medicine and Naturopathic Medicine in 1992. I graduated as an Acupuncturist in 2012“

Osteopathy, Cranial Osteopathy
& Acupuncture Therapies
Treatments are 30 minutes and the fee is €80
Some patients prefer a ‘double’ session that lasts an hour. The fee for this is €130 and has stayed the same for 15 years
Treatments are covered by medical insurance, usually refunding 50%. It is necessary to check with your insurer about your individual cover.
About the first consultation and treatment: It is a personal choice whether you opt for a double session which provides for considerably more treatment after the initial consultation on the same day; or instead prefer the single session where we will open your treatment and get a sense of how you are responding. After the initial consultation you may need to return for a follow up treatment sooner for maximum benefit.
Accessibility
