My name is Martina Catalano, creator of Acupuntura y Relax : a service that with great love and dedication I have been developing in the last three years with a single objective: to provide well-being to people through relaxation, proprioception and self-knowledge.

​​

VISION

7 years ago, a serious fracture in my right elbow due to an accident brought a lot of pain into my life. Limited movement, pain and constant use of medications, in addition to a deep sadness and a sense of hopelessness towards life.

However, the desire to find a solution to my pain was so strong that in the end I found it.  

By chance, I discovered and tried Acupuncture. That pain that had affected my life for so long, disappeared after the first session.

I experienced immense gratitude and respect for this technique and with great curiosity I decided to learn it so that I could relieve my pain when necessary. 

​

STUDIES

I trained for three years in Acupuncture and other techniques belonging to the Traditional Chinese Method at the Higher Institute of Acupuncture Studies in Valencia.

Learning the principles of Eastern medical philosophy opened the way for me to a new vision of health and well-being. I understood that well-being is found in the balance between opposites and that our commitment is the key to achieving and maintaining this balance day by day.

I then committed myself to my well-being, changed my habits and my life changed until all the learning - years later - was finally condensed into Acupuntura y Relax.

​

ACUPUNTURA  Y RELAX

Acupuncture - being a complementary technique and with a preventive approach - brought awareness and well-being to my life and my desire was to be able to share what I learned and make other people able to achieve the psycho-physical well-being that I had been able to experience. I was then expanding my knowledge in emotional and manual techniques to be able to manage a more complete therapeutic approach: I specialized in Emotional Intelligence and qualified as a Chiromassage Practitioner.

And so Acupuntura y Relax  was born: an experience of relaxation and proprioception to offer moments of connection and energy rebalancing, releasing tensions and worries.

With enthusiasm I carry out this project, bringing relief and relaxation to people I have the fortune to work with. Their smiles are the engine that pushes me to continue researching the benefits of relaxation and self-awareness in life. 

 

The techniques that I use - according to each specific case - are:

​

• Acupuncture 

• Craniopuncture

• Auriculopuncture

• Tuina Massage

• Chiromassage

• Suction cups

• Guasha

• Moxibustion

• Microneedling

• Traditional Chinese Phytotherapy

​

Although sometimes it seems impossible, change is possible, incredible and wonderful. 

I wish you good health, I hope to see you soon.
