(Registered German naturopath, Osteopath)
I completed my osteopathy studies at the Fresenius University in Idstein and graduated with a Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree after four years of full-time study. In my scientific work, I investigated the correlations between abdominal and pelvic organ eysfunctions and the development of back pain.
I am currently studying part-time, for a Master’s degree in Osteopathy, which I will complete shortly.
In addition, I have had the opportunity to gain professional experience in paediatrics and paediatric osteopathy in children’s hospitals and trauma surgery, and I am expanding my professional knowledge in osteopathy in the context of numerous specialist seminars and further training courses.
My personal specialities are:
- Women‘s health
- Children and babies
- Athletes
Osteopathy has greatly enriched my view of the human body. I particularly enjoy integrating anatomy, physiology, science and humanity into my treatments, which is why I am constantly educating myself to keep up to date with the latest science.
I speak fluent German, English, Russian and Greek.

(Registered German naturopath, Osteopath)
The human body and its abilities have always fascinated me. Therefore it was clear to me to enter the field of naturopathic medicine. I successfully completed my four-year osteopathic studies at the Fresenius University of Applied Sciences in Munich with the academic degree Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.).
During my studies, I developed a special interest in the treatment of pregnant women and children, in addition to the treatment of adults. Therefore, in my bachelor thesis I dealt with the effects of osteopathic treatments during pregnancy on the following birth.
Furthermore, I gained experience in the orthopaedic area of a maternity clinic and was allowed to experience the natural “being a child” as well as children’s motor skills and physics as a children’s sports trainer.
For me it is of great importance to always expand my professional knowledge and to stay up to date with the current state of science through courses and further education, such as paediatric osteopathy.
I speak fluent German and English.

(Registered German naturopath, Osteopath)
As a competitive athlete, I became involved with the body at an early age to realise its full potential. Through my five years of full-time study in osteopathy at the OSD in Berlin, I gained a new understanding of the body’s capabilities and daily challenges.
In various paediatric practices I was able to discover and deepen a special interest in working with babies and children. Through my experiences in child and adolescent competitive sports, I also have a special understanding of risk factors in the developement of injuries and specific sports injuries, as well as the avoidance and rehabilitation of these.
Osteopathy, based on scientific knowledge and osteopathic principles, deals with the human being as a unity of physical, psychological and environmental factors. In my work in osteopathy, I see the restoration of health as a holistic process, whereby symptoms are the expression of a disturbed balance.
I see constant further training and development of my therapeutic work as a matter of course and I am grateful to constantly expand my skills and understanding and to share this with you.
I enjoy treating the whole family with joy, competence and empathy.
I speak fluent German, English and Farsi (Persian).
