How long does it take to heal?

Thu, Jun 08, 2017

This is a tough question to answer because there are so many factors involved in the healing process. The length of time may vary but the overall process remains the same. When the body is experiencing intense pain and discomfort, there is an underlying cause that has probably been there for quite some time before the pain showed up. This is unless there is an outside trauma. Getting chiropractic care can help speed up the process and prevent the pain from returning.

Afternoon tea at Glenlo Abbey

Thu, Jun 08, 2017

Tucked away just two miles from Galway city is the five-star Glenlo Abbey Hotel, in vast acres of rich, lush, scenery on the banks of Lough Corrib. The abbey is the ancestral home to one of Galway’s famous tribes, the Ffrench family. The graceful, gothic, two-storey house was built in 1740, with the abbey itself being constructed in the 1790s as a private church for the family. In the 1980s, the house and estate were bought, restored, and converted, transforming it into a unique hotel.

Tribe Time Cocktail Corner

Thu, Jun 08, 2017

Pornstar Martini
The Pornstar Martini was invented by a South African, Douglas Ankrah, who worked in LAB Bar in Soho, London. This drink is considered a modern classic. Tribeton adds its own twist to the original recipe by adding mango vodka and replacing the pineapple with orange juice. The idea is to eat the garnish of passionfruit first, then drink the prosecco shot, and then enjoy the lavish Pornstar Martini. We hope you enjoy and don’t forget this cocktail is only €5 this Friday from 5pm.
