Born in Thessaliniki, Ellas, in 1959.

I came to Norway to visit my partner in March 2020. The pandemic meant us choosing to live together, leading me to embrace yet another homeland! It also meant a world crisis, that added new dimensions to my work with acupuncture. I worked with hundreds of people dealing with stress, isolation, anxiety, immune collapse, addiction, or overwhelm!

For 20 years I held an acupuncture practice in Amsterdam, and before that, for 20 years in London. What moves me is my deep love for planet earth. Her wisdom traditions, her sacred sites, her ancient rivers, her earthlings. I discover humanity in myself and my loved ones, and believe this to be true health and true medicine. After 45 years of work and study I am still studying more than ever, surfing the waves of more than human evolution. 5 element acupuncture is restoring the authentic signature, the natural frequency of a person. That brings all functions back to balance healing dis-ease.I am grateful for Chinese medicine, Acupuncture, Herbalism, geomancy, bodywork, meditation, Qi Gong, 

Most importantly Chinese medicine gave me the means to study universal medicine. I studied many healing traditions, arriving at their divine source.

The last 25 years I am practicing  path of The Diamond Approach, with A.H. Almaas.  I see that presence and inquiry: Approaching life with not knowing and curiosity is a path to inner freedom.

I  facilitate self-healing processes in individual and group sessions. I have developed

1) Living with the seasons: Each season is balancing specific areas of our lives. If we let it.

2)  Neck and shoulder stress release treatment. Adjusted to individual needs, this treatment frees flow between head, heart and body,

3) Treating digestive disorders. Restoring inner biodiversity and our relationship to earth.

4) Neuro-Linguistic Alignment; Instead of NLP, we align ourselves with universal and earth creativity and intelligence. 

5) Trauma healing, personal, collective and ancestral: We are made perfect by nature. It is often trauma that knocks us out of our natural ease and functionality. Healing and processing trauma is often the solution to persisting illness.
