Lic.A & Manual Lymphatic Drainage therapist
Committed, compassionate, and highly skilled in multiple disciplines, Giedre seeks to empower both women and men to achieve their optimal life and health goals through natural medicine practices, informed integrative nutrition and lifestyle management.

Giedre’s approach is to treat the individual as a whole, by working with the body and mind in tandem to bring the person back to a state of homeostasis. From there true health and a real sense of wellbeing emerge.

Being as an adult nurse, Giedre, had always strived to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western medicine. She became interested in Chinese medicine through a practice of yoga and meditation, what led her on a wonderful journey to the practitioner she is today.

Giedre graduated from Middlesex University, London with First Class degree in Traditional Chinese Acupuncture.

In 2012, during her clinical practice at Liaoning hospital of Chinese Medicine in Shenyang, China, Giedre had deepened her knowledge and practical skills with top Chinese doctors and professors. She specialized in treating neurological, muscular –skeletal and gynaecological diseases, and had clinical practice in anti-aging & cosmetology department.

Being the member of “Projects Abroad” organization, Giedre went to Nepal in 2013, where she worked as a volunteer acupuncturist in Sahara physiotherapy rehabilitation hospital in Kathmandu. For 3 months she provided treatments of acupuncture, massage, moxibustion and cupping for stroke patients, patients with MS, muscular – skeletal, neurological and other disorders.

In addition, Giedre completed Manual Lymphatic drainage course and was awarded with
Diploma in Manual Lymphatic Drainage & Combined Decongestive Therapy from Original Dr. Vodder School in Walchsee/Austria.
