About

Hi, I’m Anna! My path into complementary therapies began with a childhood interest in massage and natural remedies, sparked by the simple joy of massaging my granddad. Fast forward a few years, and I found myself in London, working in hospitality while nurturing a growing passion for holistic health. After 10 years in the fast-paced world of hospitality, I decided it was time to follow my true calling and shift focus to the healing arts. In 2020, I started my journey into manual therapy with Swedish massage, which gave me the perfect foundation. Since then, I’ve expanded my expertise with aromatherapy, sports massage, deep tissue massage, pregnancy massage, hot stone therapy, and manual lymphatic drainage. Each qualification has allowed me to better serve my clients’ unique needs, whether it’s relieving muscle tension, addressing injuries, or promoting relaxation. I am particularly passionate about pregnancy massage, helping expecting mothers navigate the discomforts that come with pregnancy. I also specialise in manual lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling and promote detox, and I’m always ready to tackle sports injuries with a deep tissue massage that targets specific problem areas. For me, it’s not just about the treatment – it’s about building a connection with my clients and helping them on their journey to overall wellness. I work closely with each individual to understand their specific concerns and develop a treatment plan that works for them. Alongside my technical skills, I take pride in offering a warm, empathetic presence during every session. I genuinely believe in the power of natural healing and aim to help my clients achieve a sense of balance and relaxation, while empowering them with the knowledge to maintain their well-being. If you’re looking for a therapist who’s committed to your comfort and health, I’d be thrilled to support you in achieving your wellness goals.

About

Hi, I’m Natalia, an MSK Physiotherapist passionate about helping people recover from injuries and optimise their physical well-being. I earned my master’s degree in Physiotherapy from Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh, following my undergraduate studies in Kinesiology at the University of Waterloo in Canada, where I was also a member of the women’s varsity soccer team. Being an athlete has been a huge influence on my career, especially as I’ve personally experienced the challenges of injury recovery and rehabilitation. My journey into physiotherapy began during my own sports injuries, where I worked closely with the therapy team and realised my calling in the field. After completing my Kinesiology degree, I became a physiotherapy assistant, supporting athletes and active individuals on their recovery journey, which only deepened my passion for physiotherapy. I’m a registered member of the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP). I’ve had extensive experience in diagnosing and treating a variety of musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions, with a special interest in sports-related injuries, rehabilitation, and holistic patient care. My approach is always patient-centred, combining confidence with humility to ensure you get the highest standard of care and that your unique goals and needs are always at the forefront of our treatment plan. In addition to my MSK expertise, I’ve also worked in community and neurological physiotherapy settings, gaining a broader understanding of the importance of holistic care that goes beyond just physical treatment. I’m passionate about ensuring my patients feel supported emotionally and socially throughout their recovery journey. I’m also fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with a broader range of patients and ensure effective communication. Whether it’s helping someone recover from a sports injury or guiding them through long-term rehabilitation, I believe in the power of teamwork to achieve the best outcomes. When I’m not working, I enjoy keeping active with soccer and running, along with exploring new coffee shops and spending time with my partner and family. These moments of relaxation and self-care keep me grounded and help me approach patient care with a balanced, well-rounded mindset. I’m excited to join the amazing team at Bodytonic Clinic, where I’m eager to work with patients to help them reach their rehabilitation goals and improve their overall quality of life.

About

Hi, I’m Noah, a physiotherapist with a passion for helping people recover, rehabilitate, and reach their full potential. My path into physiotherapy wasn’t your typical one, but it’s a career that I’ve truly come to love and thrive in. I started my academic journey by pursuing a degree in mathematics at the University of Exeter, where I developed strong analytical and problem-solving skills. However, after two years in an office job, I realised that sitting behind a desk wasn’t the right fit for me. I craved a career where I could have a direct, positive impact on people’s lives, and physiotherapy turned out to be the perfect match. To ensure I was making the right decision, I worked as a physiotherapy assistant, where I quickly realised how rewarding it was to help patients regain their mobility, strength, and confidence. This experience confirmed that physiotherapy was the path for me, so I pursued a master’s degree at Brunel University and graduated with distinction. My time at Brunel was transformative—both academically and practically—thanks to my diverse clinical placements. From working in a paediatric intensive care unit to supporting a local rugby team, each experience taught me something new, deepening my commitment to helping people of all ages and backgrounds. Now, as a qualified physiotherapist, I am thrilled with my career change. I love working with patients, building strong relationships, and developing personalised treatment plans to help them achieve their goals. Whether it’s supporting someone through post-surgical rehabilitation, helping an athlete return to sport, or assisting someone with chronic pain management, I’m passionate about improving people’s mobility and quality of life. What I appreciate most about physiotherapy is its collaborative nature. Every patient brings their own set of challenges, and I take great satisfaction in working together to create a treatment plan tailored to their needs. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of helping someone regain the ability to move pain-free or return to their favourite activities. Outside the clinic, sports are a huge part of my life. I’ve always been active, participating in rugby, football, tennis, badminton, cross-country, and more. Rugby, however, holds a special place in my heart, and I still play for a team in Ealing. Aside from rugby, I’ve completed two triathlons, three marathons, and a 24-hour relay run, each of which has pushed me to my physical and mental limits. These experiences have taught me invaluable lessons in resilience, goal-setting, and determination—principles I carry into my physiotherapy practice. My next challenge? Completing a half Ironman, though I’m in no rush to start training just yet! When I’m not working or training, you’ll probably find me travelling. I’ve been fortunate enough to explore destinations like Vietnam, Indonesia, and Uganda, and each journey has left a lasting impact on me. In fact, during my trip to Uganda, I was asked to give a Father of the Bride speech at a wedding for someone I had only met twice—a memorable experience to say the least! All of these experiences—from the rugby field to marathons, and my travels—have shaped who I am and how I approach my work. I believe that staying active, setting meaningful goals, and maintaining a positive mindset are key to leading a healthy, fulfilling life. I strive to bring these principles into my practice every day. At Bodytonic Clinic, I’m here to help you recover, rehabilitate, and reach your physical goals. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, surgery, or simply want to improve your mobility and health, I’m committed to supporting you every step of the way. Together, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan to get you back to doing the things you love. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey to better health!

About

Looking for a Podiatrist near Canada Water SE16 or Stratford E15 (E20)? I’m Soula, a qualified Foot Health Practitioner and Podiatrist, trained at the SMAE Institute—one of the oldest institutions of podiatry and chiropody, established in 1919 and now in collaboration with Queen Margaret University Edinburgh. I’m a member of the Open College of Foot Health Professionals (MCFHP) and the British Association of Foot Health Professionals (MAFHP). My journey into foot care began during my four years in the bespoke shoe industry, where I helped design custom footwear. It was there that I saw first-hand the negative impact of uncomfortable feet on people's daily lives. I learned that for some, foot pain could be severe enough to require custom-made shoes, a solution that could relieve years of suffering for many who hadn’t sought professional help. Foot health isn’t just about comfort—it’s about improving overall quality of life. Whether it's corns, calluses, cracked heels, or conditions like ingrown toenails, verrucas, fungal infections, or even managing diabetic foot care, I’m here to help. I know that many people suffer in silence, unaware that relief is within reach. My goal is to prevent foot health problems before they develop into more serious issues. I recognise that foot pain can stem from a variety of causes, including biomechanical imbalances, neurological issues, or ill-fitting shoes. I help by offering personalised treatment plans and advice on footwear and hosiery to improve comfort and prevent future problems. Achieving long-term foot health requires not only addressing existing issues but also providing maintenance advice for healthy feet throughout life. “You have your feet for a lifetime, and they deserve proper care. Most people will face a foot problem at some point—whether it’s minor or more serious—but the right treatment can make a world of difference.” I bring a professional yet friendly approach to foot care, with a focus on comfort, safety, hygiene, and confidentiality. I work with people from all walks of life, from office workers and musicians to dancers and the elderly, adapting my approach to suit each individual’s needs. My experience spans a wide range of foot health issues, and I pride myself on listening closely to my patients, helping them actively participate in their foot care, and improving their quality of life. With a background in shoe-making and a keen interest in biomechanics, I’m passionate about the movement and health of the feet. To further enhance my knowledge, I’m currently training towards a diploma in Biomechanics in Podiatry, focusing on how the muscles, bones, and joints of the foot work together. This helps me identify and treat the underlying causes of discomfort, whether through biomechanical assessments or orthotic prescriptions. I’ve also recently completed CPD in Diabetes, learning how this condition affects the feet and how to treat the associated complications. Diabetes increases the risk of foot problems due to reduced circulation and nerve damage, and my expertise allows me to help manage and prevent these issues effectively. I’m also studying dermatology to better identify and treat skin conditions of the feet. In addition to my Foot Health Practitioner qualifications, I’m in the process of becoming a registered Podiatrist through a BSc in Podiatry with Queen Margaret University Edinburgh. At Bodytonic Clinic, I offer foot care that’s tailored to your needs, whether it’s a routine check-up, a specific treatment plan, or managing a complex condition. I’m here to ensure that you don’t just live with foot pain—you can step confidently and comfortably into every day. Let’s work together to achieve your foot health goals!

Meet Yannick Gracia, a dedicated osteopath, personal trainer, and osteopathic lead at Bodytonic Clinic. With over a decade of experience in the healthcare industry, Yannick combines his expertise in osteopathy and fitness to help clients achieve their optimal health. He is known for his empathetic approach and evidence-based methods, making him a trusted figure in the healthcare community across London. Originally from Puerto de Pollensa in Majorca, Yannick grew up in a very active household, where the importance of movement and physical health was ingrained from an early age. His parents were avid athletes, which sparked his interest in physical fitness. Yannick himself competed in gymnastics and tennis at a regional level. However, after sustaining a lower back injury while playing football, he sought treatment from an osteopath, which not only healed his injury but opened his eyes to the power of manual therapy. This experience led him to leave his job as a car mechanic and pursue a career in personal training and osteopathy. Yannick moved to London to begin his journey in healthcare, initially working as a personal trainer for three years before enrolling at the British School of Osteopathy (now the University College of Osteopathy). He graduated in 2020 with a Masters in Osteopathy with academic distinction. Since then, he has continued to expand his qualifications, including further studies in mobility, biomechanics, and anatomical function, believing that combining osteopathy with fitness training provides a more comprehensive approach to recovery and injury prevention. Having worked in various clinics in Manchester and London, Yannick quickly became known for his strong understanding of human anatomy and his tailored approach to treatment. He worked alongside physiotherapists, strength coaches, and orthopaedic consultants to offer a multidisciplinary approach to care. Yannick's ability to listen and adjust treatments to meet the needs of his patients has earned him a loyal following. In 2022, Yannick took on the role of clinic manager, overseeing day-to-day operations and leading a team of healthcare professionals. This experience honed his leadership skills, and in 2024, he joined Bodytonic Clinic as the MSK lead osteopath. At Bodytonic, Yannick continues to provide hands-on osteopathic treatments while managing the clinic’s operations and supporting his team of skilled professionals. In his personal life, Yannick is passionate about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling, and free diving, a hobby he enjoys when visiting Majorca. He also values work-life balance and incorporates activities like meditation, long walks, and quality time with loved ones into his routine to recharge and stay balanced. Yannick's holistic approach to healthcare combines his deep understanding of the human body with a compassionate, client-focused mindset. Whether helping patients recover from sports injuries, manage chronic pain, or improve overall function, Yannick is committed to empowering others to achieve their best health.

Simone Baldrich – Registered Osteopath in Canada Water and Stratford, London Looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate osteopath in Canada Water or Stratford? I’m Simone Baldrich, a registered osteopath with over ten years of experience helping people move better, feel better and live healthier, more balanced lives. I work with people of all ages, from teenagers to older adults, offering personalised osteopathic care rooted in a holistic understanding of how the body and mind are deeply interconnected. Whether you are recovering from injury, managing chronic pain or simply feeling out of balance, I provide expert support using a wide range of osteopathic techniques and complementary therapies. What I offer: Osteopathy for musculoskeletal issues including back pain, neck tension, joint discomfort and more Structural osteopathy to restore alignment, improve posture and support movement Visceral osteopathy to address internal imbalances and support organ function Scar therapy to reduce restriction, improve tissue mobility and ease pain after surgery or trauma Medical acupuncture and dry needling to relieve muscle pain, improve circulation and support healing Deep tissue and sports massage Taping and kinesiology support for recovery and stability Registered with the General Osteopathic Council – Registration number 10234 Based at Bodytonic Clinic in Stratford and Canada Water Insurance accepted including BUPA and most major providers I originally trained at the European School of Osteopathy in Maidstone where I developed a deep appreciation for the human body and the powerful ways manual therapy can support recovery, wellness and vitality. Over the past decade, I have built my practice around hands-on care, evidence-based treatment and compassionate listening. My approach is always tailored to the individual. Whether someone walks into the clinic with back pain, postural strain, digestive issues or emotional stress, I take time to understand the full picture before crafting a personalised treatment plan. This might include hands-on techniques, supportive therapies or practical advice for improving movement, lifestyle and mental wellbeing. Structural osteopathy forms the core of my treatments. This therapeutic approach focuses on joints, muscles and the spine to address restrictions and promote healthy function. Whether someone has a recent injury or long-standing discomfort, structural osteopathy offers a safe and effective way to bring the body back into alignment. I also specialise in visceral osteopathy, which works through the abdomen to support the internal organs and their relationship with the rest of the body. This gentle but powerful technique is helpful for digestive issues, breathing problems, abdominal pain and lower back discomfort. Scar therapy is another unique element of my practice. Scar tissue from surgery or injury can restrict movement, cause tightness and contribute to pain long after healing appears complete. Through focused hands-on work, I help remodel scar tissue and restore flexibility and comfort. I often incorporate dry needling and Western acupuncture into treatments to target muscular trigger points and encourage the body’s natural healing process. Combined with osteopathic techniques, these therapies can accelerate recovery, reduce pain and support long-term wellbeing. In addition to hands-on work, I use kinesiology taping where needed, especially for patients managing chronic conditions or recovering from injury. Taping provides extra support to joints and muscles, encouraging proper movement while reducing strain. I treat patients aged 13 and above and adapt my approach to suit different life stages and health needs. My goal is to provide every person with care that is respectful, evidence-based and empowering. Beyond the treatment room, I bring my interest in mental and emotional health into my clinical work. I am currently training in counselling and have long understood the link between emotional stress and physical discomfort. Whether a patient is dealing with anxiety, trauma or high-pressure life events, I hold space for open, supportive conversations alongside physical treatment. I also volunteer with Samaritans and Kent Fire and Rescue Service, offering emotional support to individuals in distress and helping first responders cope with intense situations. This experience keeps me grounded and reminds me daily of the power of human connection in healing. When I am not working or volunteering, I love to travel, cook, explore new cultures and recharge by learning from different people and places. These experiences enrich my practice and give me fresh insights into health and wellbeing. If you are looking for a professional and understanding osteopath in Stratford E15 E20 or Canada Water SE16, near the City of London E1 and Canary Wharf E14, I would love to work with you. Whether you are managing pain, recovering from surgery, or looking to feel more balanced in body and mind, I offer comprehensive care tailored to you.
