MY STORY IN STAGES
...and how life took me down a different path than I planned.
The beginning ...
Born in Pula, raised in Rovinj. I bathed on the rocks of the old town and ran barefoot on the stone paths, like most of my friends.
Later, life took me far from home.
The war came and, as often happens, the journey took me to Germany – to a new environment, among unfamiliar people, with many challenges and countless new beginnings.
🔅 1994 – 2001 Professional medical assistant to a doctor in the emergency department at a hospital
If I hadn't worked in a hospital, who knows if I would have ever discovered osteopathy. It all actually started with my own coccyx fracture. It was through that experience that I first came into contact with osteopathy and it immediately captivated me. I wanted to learn and know exactly what my colleague knew and did at the time – to become an osteopath.
🔅 2000-2005 Study of Osteopathy
It was very difficult – learning and building my own practice at the same time, but I succeeded. I promised myself then: never again such a crazy pace! And yet, now, when I look back, I know that it was the best decision of my life.
🔅 . – 2011. M.Sc. ped. Ost. (GB)
Three years later, I clearly ran out of peace – I broke my promise and enrolled in a master's degree. Three years of pure madness! In the end, I told myself the same thing again: I'm never doing anything like this again.
🔅2018 – 2020 – M.Sc. Ost (Germany)
Well, seven years later, I broke my promise again and enrolled in a second master's degree. This time, I seriously promised myself that it would really be the last such "crazy project."
But who knows if I'll actually stick to it... because history shows that I like to be surprised in my own way!
🔅2024. – 2025. – M.Sc. in Clinical Psychology (MET London)
Surprise, surprise. Or maybe not? Three years later, I enrolled in a master's degree again – this time with the aim of expanding my existing knowledge and expertise with new psychological perspectives.
Out of pure love for learning, a desire for depth, and the need to be able to monitor my patients even more comprehensively and professionally.
🔅2000 – 2019 – Heilpraktikerin in her own practice in Stuttgart
🔅2019 – 2025 – Heilpraktikerin in her own practice in Munich
🔅 2025 – establishment of the Osteopathy Center in Istria
*** Alternative practitioner = health expert in alternative and complementary medicine with the right to work independently and make diagnoses in the field of natural healing in Germany. ***
... and the end
As the song says: "Only angels know what it's like in heaven"... and so do those who have experienced Istria at least once.
For me, who was born and raised here, Istria and the sea are not just a place – they are a feeling, a rhythm, and a silent source of inspiration.
Here, where the sea is always in motion, I recognize the same rhythm and silence as in biodynamic osteopathy. It is this sense of free flow and connection that makes me feel truly at home here.
I believe that whoever comes here with an open heart can find their wave of peace, health, and a new life balance.
