About

My name is Seamus Fitzgerald, I am the owner and founder of Réiteach Integrative Health, based in Dungarvan, county Waterford.

I am passionate about health and wellbeing and believe in taking a holistic view of health problems. My training has taken me as far afield as India and the United States in developing a comprehensive skillset to deliver a high standard of treatment to all my clients.

My interest in health and wellbeing was sparked by early childhood experiences of repeated ear infections, sinusitis, and a constantly runny nose. My parents’ perseverance in finding treatment that worked proved crucial. I found relief through acupuncture and herbal medicine, and discovered that I have a dairy intolerance.
