Consultations and Events:

I came to the UK from the Czech republic in 2002 as an au pair. In 2006, I joined the Metropolitan police service and worked my way up to being a detective. I left in 2013 to become a self-employed massage therapist. After my husband passed away from cancer in 2014, I started intensive therapy that has been life changing and led to me undertaking training in Person Centred Integrative NLP/Hypnotherapy myself.

In 2018, I was doing really well as massage therapist slowly transitioning towards NLP/hypnotherapy, living the single life, enjoying dancing, horse riding and travelling. I was in the best mental and physical place I’d ever been.

I met a handsome young man, fell in love, fell pregnant and found out he was leaving the country to live with a girlfriend and twin daughters I had no clue about.

Two weeks later I found out I had to leave my rented accommodation as it was being sold.

I had to stop massage at six months of my pregnancy and found a part time job as a carer for people with autism. I was homeless, living on my friend’s sofa, the council was messing me about. I had to involve a journalist to get help. When I went to labour I had nowhere to go to from hospital.

Fortunately, another friend took me in with my newborn son. My labour did not go smoothly, ended in emergency c-section and I struggled with breastfeeding for the first three months. Postnatal depression came my way, as well as petrifying separation anxiety.

A few month later, in 2019, I found an amazing flat, started therapy again and focused on being a mum. I fell in love with motherhood and realised that not only I want to have the best experience of it I can, but I also want to help other mums to enjoy their motherhood.

I attended masters class in NLP/hypnotherapy with my son on my lap and continue educating myself on the subject of parenting and child development in order to be the best I can be for my clients.

Wow! 4 years ago today... Moon hadn't opened yet, there was still a lot to be done and I had to take a breather and a sit down... What a lot has happened in this time (including discovering barefoot shoes 😉), yet the years have flown... Let's see what the next four years bring 😊

Join us this Monday (21st July) for our low cost acupuncture clinic at Moon Women's Health. We’re over halfway through 2025, and our feet are firmly planted in Summer. In Chinese Medicine, Summer belongs to the Fire element - linked to warmth, joy, connection, and the outward-moving energy of Yang. It’s a time of momentum, movement, and brightness. Bustling social calendars, busy work schedules, and that hazy, sticky heat after a sudden downpour. Acupuncturists love this season for its vibrant, outward energy - but we also know that all this activity can leave us feeling scattered, overstretched, or out of sync. And if you’ve found yourself taking a few steps back with your wellbeing recently - know that it’s OK. The path to long-term wellbeing isn’t always straight. So this Summer, ask yourself: ☀️ What do I need to feel calmer or more connected? ☀️ Am I supporting my nervous system and hormonal health, or running on empty? ☀️ Do I need to come back to the basics - like sleep, food, and breath? Here at the Acupuncture Collective, Sophie and Dr Sunila can help you recalibrate. Acupuncture supports your body’s rhythms, helps re-anchor your energy, and gives you space to pause and reconnect with what matters most. Whether that’s managing stress, giving your hormones a helping hand, or laying the groundwork for the busy summer holidays - the Acupuncture Collective is here to support you. Our next Acupuncture Collective is taking place between 2pm to 8pm on Monday 21st July - Find more details and book via the link in our bio.
