Brian Murray
Sport Plus Acupuncture was founded in 2010 and is operated by Brian Murray. His previous background was in I.T. and Project Management.

Brian is a graduate of Lansdowne College of Acupuncture and Complementary Medicine where, under Dr. Vincent Carroll, he studied many of the facets of Chinese medicine as well as Western clinical medicine.

After graduating Brian progressed his training through studying the writings and practices of Dr Yun-tao Ma PhD, a neuroscientist, acupuncturist and founder of Integrative Systemic Dry Needling (ISDN). Brian decided to put this learning into practice and offer athletes and sportspersons the discipline of ISDN which he truly believes can make a significant difference and offer huge benefits to sportspersons of all disciplines.

Integrative Systemic Dry Needling


ISDN is a completely safe and purely scientific procedure based upon many years of clinical research in the field of acupuncture and neuroanatomy. ISDN utilises the body's natural healing processes to enhance performance, reduce incidents of injury and speed up recovery from injury where necessary.

Sport Plus Acupuncture is the first and only ISDN-specific clinic in Ireland.

Sport Plus Acupuncture works with both individuals and clubs in a private and mobile setting.
