For the past few years I have suffered considerable lower back pain (possibly caused by shifting too much weigh onto one leg before a knee replacement on the other). Foolishly I thought I would be stuck with this for the rest of my days (I'm 78). Recently an older person known to my wife and myself enthused about the benefits she derived from visits to the Dun Laoghaire branch of Care_Cure (she said that before going there the only part of her that wasn't in pain was her hair!). Also, I have been plagued with a stiff neck for almost 18 months (a result of banging my cycle helmet against a solid object)... once again I thought I would just have to put up with this...
Yesterday - Tuesday 30th January 2024 - I made my first (of six) visits to Care_Cure in Dun L.

I was left with deep bruises, which I only noticed the next day, no one explained I would get these or what it means until I researched myself. Overall I felt I was rushed into a room, no advice or explanation and then a forceful approach to pay €600 there and then. Disappointed as I was looking forward to a pleasant experience based on...
Read moreI had chronic back pain which started 18 years ago and I was diagnosed with arthritis. I did everything I could to get rid of it but to no avail. Lost 34 lbs in six months, kept myself active and n shape, eat healthy, meditate 30 minutes a day, massage every few months.. kept the back pain at bay but never went away until I tried accuppressure in Care Cure D4. Dr. Joe told me I had a kidney problem and prescribed an herbal treatment. It never crossed my mind re kidney problem but hey I'm up for a new adventure and boy was I glad I did! It was the greatest miracle ever! I had a new lease in life! The pain went away like magic on my first dose! Now I am pain free! I highly recommend Care Cure D4.. they are a...
