Dr Ekaterina (Katya) Mishanina BSc MBBS MFHom

Prior to studying medicine Dr Mishanina studied psychology at University College London. This is where she first became interested in the intricate connection between mind and emotions and the importance of the medical consultation in the healing process. Since qualifying as a doctor from Barts and London school of Medicine and Dentistry, she has been working in different brunches of medicine including general practice, paediatrics, acute medicine amongst others.

During her conventional medical work she realised that she was not always able to help patients get to the root cause of their illness using the conventional medical model of health. She also found that the treatment options available to her would help the symptoms but often did not address the deeper issues.

In search of more holistic and natural ways of approaching the illness, she trained in medical homeopathy at the Royal London Hospital of Integrative Medicine (RLHIM). She now covers some general medicine and fibromyalgia clinics and teaches homeopathy to the medical professionals at the RLHIM.

She trained with the British Society of Ecological Medicine in nutritional and functional medicine. She is passionate to help people address complex factors such as gut dysbiosis, nutritional deficiencies, toxicity, immune and hormonal disturbances that may maintain the disease. She also completed courses in analytical psychology and guided visualisation for therapeutic change and incorporates some of these techniques into her medical practice. She may manage cases jointly with other therapists at The Natural Practice for the benefit of the individual. 

She contributes to homeopathy conferences and published in the peer-reviewed journals (Canadian Medical Association Journal and Reproductive Health).

Dr Katya sees patients in Winchester and London.

She is committed to make complementary medicine more widely available and offers a limited number of reduced fee clinics. To find out more click here.
