Medica Complete Health

About

Medica is a dynamic provider in the area of modern medicine. These days, people tend to seek medical advice from individual practitioners who are usually experts in treating a particular aspect of a person (body, mind or psyche). In Medica, this group of experts has come together to treat people as a coordinated unit of practitioners.

These include body therapists, dietitians, energy therapists, counsellors and/or personal trainers. Clients have the choice of getting their health needs assessed holistically with these practitioners present in a formal assessment or can seek treatment from any of the individual practitioners (myotherapy, medicinal herbs, osteopathy, naturopathy, shiatsu, any type of massage).

Medica is Complete Health.

Spiros has established a number of practices around Melbourne, partaken in the formation of a non-profit organisation treating heroin addiction with acupuncture, and taught massage and various Chinese medicine aspects in universities and government organisations. His latest adventure is the opening of Medica Complete Health in East Brunswick.

Spiros furthered his medical knowledge by undertaking studies in craniosacral therapy, designed by the �Upledger Institute of Craniosacral therapy and Osteopathy� in Florida, USA. He has also completed a Graduate Diploma in Chinese herbs at the Southern School of Natural Therapies, and, more recently, an Advanced Diploma in Massage (Myotherapy) at Kangan TAFE. His current passion is the study and medical application of the ancient Greek Hippocratean wisdom, in conjunction to the contemporary traditional Greek medicine and dietary therapy.

His primary treating style is now a fusion of myotherapy, shiatsu techniques, medicinal herbal remedies based on the ancient Greek and modern Western medical understanding, and craniosacral techniques. His main treatment areas are musculoskeletal problems (his treatments are quite effective in regards to pain and rehabilitation), gynaecological issues and conception, depression and anxiety/ panic attacks, immunity boosting (e.g., treatment of the common cold and flu), weight management and dietary planning.
