I am an osteopath based in North London. I have experience treating a wide variety of neuromusculoskeletal conditions, and my management is specifically tailored towards the patient's needs.
I work in Finchley Monday-Tuesday, Thursday-Friday, and I am also happy to do home visits on Wednesdays.
Prior to my career as an Osteopath, I was a professional ballet and contemporary dancer. I trained and danced at the Greek National Ballet and London Contemporary Dance School and performed internationally for 11 years.
My passion for osteopathy began to develop after receiving osteopathic treatments for injuries as an elite performer. As an osteopath, I use my experiences and advanced understanding of body movement and mobility to assess and treat patients. Also giving me a natural interest and ability in treating dancers. My vision is to help enhance dancers' well-being and prolong their career. My management includes manual therapy and dance-specific retraining.

Testimonials:
"Nonica immediately started to recognise the impact of over 20 years of dancing and teaching flamenco on my body. At the time she helped me a lot through osteopathic treatment but also gave me good advice on how to manage pain and wear and tear... Nonica has also treated my daughter with the same love and kindness, having found -again! the source of the problem without unnecessary consultations. We are both truly grateful to this amazing professional!”
- C.Esteves, Flamenco and Argentinian Tango dancer and teacher
"I had great pain in my hip for over a year after injuring myself during a dance performance. Having tried different approaches, such a physiotherapy, I eventually decided to see if osteopathy could help. When I went to see Nonica, the pain and restrictions of movement in my hip started vanishing pretty much after the first consultation and treatment. Nonica was attentive and looked at the bigger picture of my pain, asking questions and incorporating my whole body in her examination. After only five treatments, the injury was so much better that I could take up physical activity again, which as a dancer, really changed my life. Nonica had impressive professional expertise, but also a very welcoming and warm way when she treated my body. I sincerely thank her for her patience and commitment, and would highly recommend her as an osteopath to dancers and non-dancers alike."
