About

Welcome to Mata Wellbeing
I’m Eleni — a qualified naturopath, holistic skin therapist, and the founder of Mata Wellbeing. I created this space to bring together everything I’ve learned over the past 20+ years in the skin and wellness world and everything I’ve lived through in my own body.

Mata is a place where naturopathy meets hands-on therapy. Where science meets intuition. Where we support the skin, the gut, the nervous system — and the woman behind it all.

I work from both the inside-out and the outside-in. That means using skincare and advanced facial techniques to support your skin externally, while also diving into the internal drivers through nutrition, herbal medicine, lifestyle, and emotional support.

I don’t believe in quick fixes. What I offer is deeper, more sustainable, and truly personalised. Because your skin doesn’t operate in isolation — and neither should your care.

Why I Do This Work
My own health journey is what led me here. I’ve dealt with severe cystic acne since I was a teenager. I tried it all — antibiotics, the pill, multiple rounds of Roaccutane — and nothing ever truly addressed the root.

After my son was born, my health unraveled even more, and I was eventually diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. That was a massive turning point. I started looking for answers beyond the surface, and that’s what led me to study Naturopathy.

I now hold a Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy), I’m a member of the NHAA, and I’ve trained in advanced skin techniques like Neolifting© and buccal massage. I also incorporate breathwork and somatic therapy into my treatments because I’ve seen just how closely the body, skin, and emotions are linked.

What It’s Like to Work With Me
I support women who feel like they’ve tried everything — but still aren’t getting answers. Whether you’re dealing with stubborn skin concerns like acne or rosacea, ongoing gut issues, immune dysfunction, burnout, or you just don’t feel quite right in your body — I’m here to help you piece it all together.

Some women come to me for skin treatments and leave with a deeper understanding of their health. Others begin with naturopathy and realise they’ve been craving the grounding touch of bodywork. My goal is to meet you where you're at and walk alongside you, with warmth, curiosity, and care.

This work is personal for me. And if you’ve landed here, I have a feeling it might be for you too.
Let’s rebuild from the inside out — and the outside in.
