Conor Ward
Batchelor Health Science - Acupuncture
Conor started his acupuncture journey straight out of school in 2011 and hasn’t looked back since. Over the years, he’s developed a real passion for helping people manage anxiety and better understand their nervous systems. To build on this, he’s currently studying counseling, blending these practices into his acupuncture work for a more holistic approach.
Conor loves the hands-on nature of acupuncture and has spent a lot of time perfecting his techniques to make treatments as effective, gentle, and non-invasive as possible. His goal is to help clients feel relaxed, supported, and empowered on their health journey.
Whether it’s stress, pain, or something more specific, Conor is here to help you feel your best with care, compassion, and a calm, down-to-earth approach.
