Hi lovely!

My name is Fionnuala, the owner & founder of Restorative Resonance. I am a holistic therapist with a background in neurobiology and psychology. I have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and am absolutely fascinated with how the human body works.

 

I used to naïvely assume that as long as you ate a healthy diet and exercised, then health was guaranteed. But an undiagnosed digestive genetic condition put my health in a tailspin for almost 7 years. When I was finally diagnosed in 2025, I was in multiple organ failure, had to have emergency surgery and was in hospital for weeks.

 

After having all the curative treatments and was finally sent home from the hospital- I assumed my health would naturally return. But I was left with severe nausea and vomiting that almost landed me back in the hospital several times.

​

Unfortunately, modern medicine had done all it could for me, so I looked for a different answer.  I looked at what my body might think the nausea and vomiting might be protecting me from. What was the message behind the symptom.

​

For years, food had caused me severe pain and a medley of horrific symptoms. So, every time I ate anything- I was anxious and almost bracing myself for what was to come. I had inadvertently trained my body to believe food was a threat.

​

 Once I became aware of this root cause, I was much more conscious of my thoughts when eating, and within days the nausea started to lift for the first time in years. I discovered that often the pain, or tension we are feeling, is our bodies protecting us from something and it could be even our own thoughts. But when you bring awareness to this, the symptoms ease, the nervous system resets and healing can happen.

 

Now my body feels like home again and I’ve learned to work with it and listen to its quiet messages. I want to do the same for others.

 

Objective: To help people find the message behind their symptom and find the root cause of their pain, illness, tension, stress or emotional discomfort: to allow true healing and health to occur.

I want to make sure no one is alone on their healing journey and everything I offer is backed up with over 16 years of study, experience, & research.

 ​

Love

Fi
