,Ms Iulia Martinas
M.Ost. Osteopath
Iulia understands that healing, rather than silencing symptoms is about uncovering why your body is in pain, then giving you the tools to resolve it for good. Bringing nearly three decades of clinical experience-9 years as an osteopath alongside 19 years in specialist surgical, pelvic, and complex medical nursing, Iulia bridges the gap between conventional medicine and hands-on, holistic care. This deep grounding allows her to look at your health through a truly integrative lens, recognizing how internal health, past medical procedures, stress, and physical structure have an ongoing interconnected influence on one another.
Every body has its own story, so each treatment plan is tailored for you, using a wide range of targeted techniques.
Having trained in Visceral Manipulation, Cranial Osteopathy, and Medical Acupuncture Iulia combines her knowledge in her treatments. Restoring healthy mobility to internal organs and surrounding fascial tissues is particularly effective for post-surgical adhesions, digestive strain, or pelvic discomfort. Gentle, subtle balancing techniques of Cranial Osteopathy help to release tension in the head, spine, and nervous system. Iulia also uses Structural Techniques & Manipulation to Improve joint mobility, spinal alignment, and biomechanical function, and Soft Tissue Therapy & Medical Acupuncture to release deep muscular tension, reducing pain sensitivity, and stimulating local blood flow.
Empowering Your Recovery
True relief comes from resolving the root cause, rather than applying temporary fixes. Alongside hands-on treatment, Iulia takes the time to help you understand how your body functions, giving you the clarity and practical tools needed to take active control of your recovery. Whether you are navigating chronic discomfort, recovering from injuries or seeking to restore balance and vitality to your body, she offers a safe, compassionate, and medically informed space for your recovery.
