About me

OSTEOPATHIC AND FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE

I am a diagnostician, osteopath and functional medicine specialist, with a double medical degree: in osteopathic medicine and masters in physiotherapy, with post diploma in functional medicine. I have 11+ years of clinical experience, treated thousands of patients in Europe, South-East Asia and Middle East. Currently I am also a student for international diploma in animal osteopathy.

CURRENT CLINIC PRACTICE

I practice in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where in 2023 I received a medical license from Dubai Health Authority and joined the team in the oldest osteopathy clinic in the Gulf, Osteopathic Health Centre. I continue on giving online functional medicine consultations for patients around the world. I am certified as functional medicine specialist by the biggest and only board certified Institute for Functional Medicine, U.S. among only 19 other functional medicine specialist in UAE: https://www.ifm.org/practitioners/karolina-domaranczyk/

I work integratively, including all the three branches of osteopathy - parietal, cranial and visceral. I base my diagnostic process and treatment on: functional and mitochondrial medicine, microbiology, breathing and stress management methods, longevity research and integrative medicine approach.

I specialise in metabolic conditions, GI dysfunctions, autoimmune conditions, sleep deprivations, anxiety, depression and headaches.

REINVENTING CLINIC WORK

Apart from treating, in 2019 I envisioned, developed and launched as a medical director, an innovative clinic for integrative medicine in Warsaw, Poland. In 2014 I collaborated on envisioning and opening the first clinic for lifestyle medicine in Warsaw, Poland.

In years 2020 - 2023 I was practicing osteopathy in pop-up clinic formula, as a nomad osteopath - I opened pop-ups in Sri Lanka, Bali, Spain and Poland. As for the functional medicine practice, I've been actively giving online consultations for patients around the world.

ACADEMIC WORK

I had been honoured to become an academic assistant for Valeria’s Ferreira student’s visceral courses for Osteopathie Schule Deutschland. Before that I became the youngest academic assistant for cranial osteopathy courses for Osteopathie Schule Deutschland. I also used to provide consecutive translations for anatomy classes.

HUMANITARIAN WORK

In 2020 I envisioned and brought to life a Humanitarian Project for American NGO ElephantsNow.org, a project that provides osteopathic healthcare services for people in rural areas of Sri Lanka struggling with human-elephant conflict.
