I've been a Registered Massage Therapist since 2014, graduating from WCCMT in the Lower Mainland. My practice prioritizes guiding patients into feelings of release and decompression; empowering them to be mindful of their entire system. I am passionate about helping patients create practical, easy going, self care routines; weaving a variety of movement, strengthening and relaxation into their daily lives. Working with an evidence informed lens, I integrate effective holistic practices into a balanced, whole body approach. My hands on treatment is simple, anchored in flow and feel good touch. I use Swedish, Neuromuscular & Fascial techniques, as well as gentle joint mobilizations. I enjoy foraging, trail running, sailing, traveling, building art installations & producing music. Born in Kazakhstan, I immigrated to Vancouver in 2001. I come to Victoria from Powell River, where I lived for 3 years.

Tui Na Massage is a Chinese style of massage that involves stretching, rubbing, pushing, rolling and kneading to support the body's vital qi, relieve pain, heal injuries and reduce inflammation. Acupressure points are incorporated and pressed along meridians to unblock stagnant qi and improve circulation. This treatment is invigorating, energizing and relaxing. After 30 minutes of Tui Na Massage, the client will receive the NADA protocol of 5 needles in the ears. This protocol is extremely regulating for the nervous system, regulates stress and calms the mind.
