ABOUT
I am your modern day Curandera, the one who heals through her connection to the Nature and to the Spirit.
​
My life is a story of unceasing exploration, from one culture to another and through changing life roles.
​
Five Element Acupuncture has not only allowed me to make my work my passion but has also been a journey of exploration into the world of energy, which I now encourage in others.
​
I trained with several Five Element Acupuncture and Classical Acupuncture masters. Amongst them, I had the honour of meeting personally with prof. J.R.Worsley and witnessing his work. I follow teachings of Daoist master Jeffrey Yuen. I continue my exploration of Classical Chinese Medicine with Scuola Italiana d'Agopuntura (SIDA) in Italy of which I am a member (www.agopunturasida.it).
​
I obtained the Licentiate in Acupuncture qualification at the School of Five Element Acupuncture (SOFEA) in London, accredited by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board (BAAB) in 2005. I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council (www.acupuncture.org.uk) and the European Traditional Chinese Medicine Association (www.etcma.org).

"Golden hands! Thanks to acupuncture treatments I got rid of severe headaches originating from different factors, both physical and psychological; in a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. I felt accepted, protected and understood. Dorota Kowal has been following me for several years now and I am truly grateful to have met her!"

"I received numerous acupuncture treatments from Dorota over several months. My health benefited greatly from these treatments, both physically and emotionally. My digestion and circulation improved. I felt calmer as well as more balanced and present in my body. I also felt more vibrant, energetic and optimistic.
Dorota is a caring and compassionate person and a gifted and intuitive healer. I highly recommend her to you if you want to enjoy optimal health."

Thanks Dorota. You were so great, super attentive, delicate and very focused. You have been super good at treating my sciatica with acupuncture. I remember, before coming to you I couldn't even walk well, I was in so much pain. With your magical hands, with a few sessions, it all passed. That pain is gone, now I'm fine. Thank you so much.
