Dr Daniel Silverstein, Medical Doctor

I am a GP from New Jersey, USA and currently doing Yuliya Kostenko's medical leech therapy course. She is an excellent teacher in both hirudotherapy and general holistic practice including herbal and fungotherapy. The course has changed my entire view of medicine and has been an eye opener for me. I highly recommend it for anyone taking care of patients who wants to go deeper in their assessment and treatment.”
Nesrin Serdaroglu, Therapist

“I honestly cannot rate this course high enough! The classes have literally been amazing. With the knowledge and personal attributes Yuliya beholds, you will not find better a better teacher. All my questions answered with so much time, effort and care. She is professional, thorough and determined to help you become a good practitioner. Very pleased with the course, got much more than expected. Thank you so much Yuliya!!”
Javad Darehshiri, Naturopath

“I am a Naturopath living and working in Montreal, Canada. I took Leech therapy course which I greatly enjoyed. Yuliya has put together a wonderful and very well-structured programme. She is incredibly inspiring teacher and I learned a lot. I can highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve personal health or take their career in complementary medicine to a new level.”
Jessica Cavallina, Holistic therapist
Ibiza, Spain
Just finished my Leech Training Course and I couldn’t have asked for better!!! The program is absolutely clear, full of notions (as it should be) and Yuliya adds a lot of details that make it more and more interesting. Her competences and passion create a great mix for who really wants to jump into a professional leech course.

Highly recommended!!!!”
Diana Masjukevica - Leech Harmony
Exeter, UK
The course was by far one of the best trainings I have invested in for my business. As a new therapist, I knew I had to study with someone who was at the top of the industry. The amount of experience Yuliya has is clearly reflected in her knowledge and skills. Her style of teaching is so much needed in the leech’ therapy world, because she wants to see therapists succeed. I highly recommend taking her course!
Josephine Garmon, TCM practitioner
London, UK
This course is a hidden germ. The Professional Diploma covers a range of topics and I learned a lot. After completion I was able to perform my own treatments without having to pay again £250 for a single session in West London! Much pleased with the quality and clarity of the training materials. This is an amazing therapy that can help with more health issues that I could have imagined! Huge thank you for the course!!
Alicja Golicz, Nurse
Manchester UK
Professional Diploma course is definitely highly recommended. Yuliya is very experienced and knowledgeable tutor. I do feel all aspects of Leech Therapy training were well covered. She is also friendly and approachable all the way during your new Leech adventure. Thank you for this unique and inspiring training. I now successfully practice Leech Therapy in Manchester.
Ilona Sirveliene
London, UK
Initially I was Yuliya’s private patient. While official medicine failed me, Yuliya’s treatments and wise advice got me out of dangerous health situation so I decided to train with her. The Leech therapy course has been super interesting and was probably the most useful programme I have ever attended. Never imagined that leech therapy could help with so many issues. Thank you for a great information. It was worth every minute spent.
Marina Kovalska, Nutritionist
Preston, UK
I am delighted to have completed the Leech therapy course. Yuliya was very focused and dedicated to ensure that I received the best possible learning experience. I had support even after completing the course which was very reassuring.  Today I work as a Leech Therapist in Preston. I highly recommend attending the course to gain fundamental knowledge in Leech Therapy.  Anyone attending this course will greatly benefit from it.
Estera Franczewska
London, UK
Brilliant course! so happy I found it. Yuliya has lead the training professionally and made sure that students understood what was being covered. Very nice atmosphere as well as in-depth tuition. She genuinely cares a great deal for her patients and is very passionate about the subject. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a leech therapy teacher 💯 Don’t hesitate to take this programme, such knowledge is guaranteed to pay off over and over !
Amanda, Natural Therapies specialist
London, UK
Yuliya is an amazing teacher with incredible knowledge! Patient and supportive during and after the course. To enhance Leech therapy treatments, she added information on Herbal medicine and medicinal mushrooms. One of the key discoveries was to learn that LT is a safe and effective tool protecting us against post-Covid blood clotting! I felt that I had the knowledge and skills to practice competently and with confidence. Many Thanks!! 🙏🏻

Leech Therapy in London

Leech therapy uses only special types of medicinal leeches grown in modern bio farms. Leeches are single use and are disposed after each session according to medical standards. During the session a few medicinal leeches applied to the body’s problematic area to extract blood (usually 5-10 ml per leech). The procedure is relaxing and lasts just over an hour an hour. At the end the bite area is covered with sterile cotton wool dressing and materials given to patient to take home in case of additional bandage is needed.

The initial post-application bleeding should normally last be between 8 to 20 hours, however after Covid many patients bleed less, about 3-6 hours. With each following session the body adapts to leech saliva and the bleeding time gets shorter and shorter until it reaches the natural minimum (about 1-2 hours at most). The number of leeches for each patient is decided based on person’s age and health condition, usually about 3-5, but can reach up to 7-10 in some cases. The procedure of treatment with leeches is generally relaxing and many patients fall asleep during the session.
