I’m a holistic health practitioner and specialist acupuncturist with over 20 years of experience. Based in London, I support patients across clinics in Wandsworth, Notting Hill, and Marylebone with compassionate, personalised care.
While I specialise in fertility and women's health, I also support men with chronic pain, back pain, stress, sleep issues, and metabolic health — because feeling your best shouldn't be gendered.
My Integrated ApproachAncient Roots.
Ancient Roots.
Modern Science.
Beyond Acupuncture, I integrate Reflexology, Womb massage, and Low Level Laser therapy with tailored Metabolic Balance nutrition and Chinese herbal care - all working together to treat the root cause, not just the symptoms.
The result? A health plan that's simple, supportive, and stress-free — whether you're here for fertility, hormones, or just to feel more like you.

I’m so glad I found Karla towards the end of my pregnancy. I had two sessions within the week before my due date, which really helped ease my back pain and left me feeling relaxed and comfortable.
My second session was on Thursday to reduce back pain and help with inducing the labour and I started having contractions on Friday! I’m grateful to Karla for helping me feel more prepared for labour and would highly recommend her to any mum to be. Thank you, Karla

I cannot recommend Nature's Heals in Wandsworth highly enough, especially Karla. I had suffered from painful periods since my teens and had accepted that it was something I would always have to live with. However, after just one Maya abdominal massage session with Karla, my period pain stopped completely.
Karla is incredibly knowledgeable and caring, and she made me feel comfortable throughout the treatment. I'm amazed by the results and so grateful for her expertise. If you're struggling with period pain or are looking for a holistic approach to women's health, I would highly recommend booking a session with her at Nature's Heals Wandsworth. It has truly been life-changing for me.

I worked with Karla while I was anxious about my labor - I was scheduled for an induction 2 days before I started working with her and the night of the second session I went into spontaneous labor! She has an incredibly calming and reassuring presence and the session really helped me let go of some of my fears and anxieties - thank you so much Karla

I highly recommend Karla. She helped me with stress (which I could literally feel in my gut), dizziness, bloating, hormonal acne, night sweats during my periods, chronic fatigue, and poor sleep - which I was dealing with for a long time.
She also identified that I was dealing with a leaky gut and gave me nutritional advice that has slowly helped repair my gut health.
She is incredibly empathetic, professional, warm, and calming, and always takes the time to really listen. I’ve noticed such a positive change in both my physical and emotional wellbeing. ❤️

I’ve suffered from chronic migraines for years and was tired of relying on painkillers. I started seeing Karla for acupuncture for headaches at the Wandsworth clinic, and the difference has been life-changing. The frequency of my attacks has dropped significantly, and I no longer get that heavy tension in my neck and shoulders. If you're looking for a natural way to manage migraine pain, Nature Heals is the best.

Karla is a miracle worker - she brought on spontaneous labour with her natural induction package which I really believe led to my baby’s natural birth on the birth centre ❤️ She has since been supporting me as we prepare for our second following a complicated miscarriage and everything she’s suggested has led to improvements. Honestly I cannot thank her enough for all she’s done on my motherhood journey and would recommend her to everyone. Aside from the physical outcomes, I also leave feeling mentally calm and relaxed. Thank you Karla!

Karla has been an incredible support throughout my fertility and pregnancy journey. Her calm presence, deep knowledge, and personalised treatments made a huge difference for my overall well-being. I always felt heard, cared for, and genuinely supported. I believe her work played a meaningful role in helping me conceive and stay balanced throughout the early stages of my pregnancy. I’m so grateful for her and highly recommend her to anyone on a similar path.

I started seeing Karla in August 2025 because I have PCOS and I always had irregular cycles. I wanted to try acupuncture to see if it could help me to regulate my cycle, as I was just starting my TTC journey. In August 2025, my cycle was 36 days but after a few sessions with Karla, in the next month (September 2025), my cycle was regular. I was so surprised to find out I got pregnant in that cycle, I truly believe that acupuncture helped me. Karla is very professional and gave me important hints that supported my body to be ready for pregnancy. I continue seeing Karla as I have nausea and acupuncture is helping to manage that pregnancy sympton. I can only speak from my experience as it seems that worked for me so I can only recommend Karla (and acupuncture) if you are trying to conceive.

Karla is absolutely amazing and incredibly knowledgeable. She made me feel at ease from the moment I walked in. She took the time to explain the process and answered all the questions in detail, which made me feel confident and relaxed throughout the session. After just one session I noticed significant reduction in my pain in the hips, lower back. She also helped me a lot with my shortness of breath and my heart related issues and I’ve felt such a significant improvement.
At first I was very sceptical that this could help my numerous health problems but now I am able to sleep regularly every night.
The clinic itself has such a calming atmosphere and the environment is peaceful, making it easy to relax during treatment.
Thank you Karla! Your treatment has truly made a difference and I am really grateful for your expertise and care.

Karla is an incredibly warm, personable and empathetic person but remains professional, matter of fact and honest. She very quickly put my wife at ease but ensuring her comfort and asking many in depth questions about her background to fully understand the condition she would be treating. Karla will happily offer advice on products/ supplements and recommend other medical professionals, often off the top of her head.
We have repeatedly used Karla and will continue doing so. I can highly recommend her to others looking for an acupuncturist in the area.

Karla has been an absolute integral part of my fertility journey. I began seeing her after two miscarriages and found my visits to her really helped with any stress or anxiety I felt around conceiving and for my general wellbeing. Karla is very knowledgeable and helped me seek out the right tests and supplements that along with my regular sessions with her, led me to conceiving and carrying a healthy baby to full term. As well as her knowledge and expertise, my sessions with her made me feel very much in a safe, non-judgmental space. I continued with my sessions from pre-conception right through to induction accupuncture and now our beautiful little baby is here! Thank you Karla.

I was suffering with physical symptoms caused by anxiety that were really interfering with my daily life. I had been to the doctors and I was reluctant to take anymore medication. I started doing some research and discovered that acupuncture is used to treat anxiety. I began getting acupuncture at the end of April and it has made an astounding difference. I no longer have these physical symptoms and my mood has improved. Karla is very kind and patient, thank you, Karla! I would recommend acupuncture to anyone suffering from anxiety.

I recently had an acupuncture session with Karla at the London Acupuncture Clinic, where I work too and I couldn’t be more grateful for her expertise and care. I was suffering from acute and very severe back pain, and after just one session with Karla, I experienced significant relief. I had undergone some sessions by myself, but Karla’s treatment stood out as exceptionally effective in addressing my emergency case. I highly recommend her…

I started seeing Karla for acupuncture almost a year ago, a couple of months before my ivf treatment started. Karla takes the time to understand your individual concerns and is knowledgeable on the fertility and ivf process. We were successful from our first round and I continued to see Karla throughout my pregnancy to support nausea, sleep and my wellbeing. Thank you so much for being part of my fertility journey and helping my body bring our baby into the world. I recommend Karla to anyone on their own fertility journey and using accupuncture to support

Karla has been absolutely brilliant in supporting my husband and my fertility journey. Karla helped me regulate my cycles after coming off the contraceptive pill (which I had been on 10 years) and assist in preparing my body to give us the best chance to conceive naturally, along with treating my husband. I am now into my 2nd trimester and still seeing Karla for regular pregnancy acupuncture. Karla is very experienced and knowledgeable, I would recommend her to anyone!
