Bodywork & massage therapy
I'm not your average massage therapist. Why?
Because I have a multidisciplinary approach in my work and studies and I'm not afraid to use it.
You don't get a separate slice of therapy for each separate symptom, you get the whole cake, body-mind-spirit integration.
Body-wise, I have over 1500+ hours of schooling in:
- Therapeutic massage
- Somatic massage & relaxation techniques
- Lymphatic drainage massage
- Reflexotherapy
- Anticellulitic massage
- Deep tissue massage
However, that's only one part of my knowledge, because I'm also a licensed psychologist and psychotherapist in training (with some 4000+ hrs of study/training) and that brings a whole new understanding of symptoms and overall approach to healing, the kind that your casual psychologist doesn't have about anatomy & physiology and your casual masseur doesn't have about psychology and how to actually support someone who gets to share personal stuff on the table.
My spiritual practices further deepen my understanding of how energy flows and is influenced by various practices, gestures and rituals.
Therefor, I don't work in the regular way a massage therapist usually works. You won't find me at a drop-in salon, nor providing 45-50 mins therapies one after another. I value both my time and energy and I can only offer you the same in return.
In short, I invite you to work with me if you want a deep conversation with me & your tissues, a slow and thorough approach to healing with a magical touch of bliss for the other senses (sound baths, aromatherapy)
I do not work with strangers - Any booking will be accompanied by a short call/conversation about your life and needs in regards to a therapy. We proceed to working together if there is a mutual energetic "match" after our little call and if truly I am someone who can help you. If not, maybe I can direct you to a more suitable therapist. That's also the reason why you won't pay a massage therapy upfront.
I also do not provide massage therapy to any client I work with as psychologist - it's a no-no from COPSI.
Friends get a discount - if you're one of my dear acquaintances and you want to work with me, you get a 50% discount for the first session, no matter which one you choose & I'll make you a special offer for further therapies if you want to continue working with me. This is my way of giving back to people who made my life beautiful and meaningful.
How I work
1. I took my time to think through a list of therapies I would like to offer that best showcase my skills and preferences. My offerings are designed around harnessing the best of my abilities, knowledge and calibrated intuition. Scroll down to see them & read through the details.
2. Request a booking and I'll get back at you with a short call/conversation (15 min, free of charge) in order to assess your situation, background and needs and mutually agree if we're a good match.
3. We will mutually agree to a space where the therapy will happen. I sometimes offer home visits (for extra cost or special situations), but more often I will book a massage room at a partner location.
4. You fill in a short-form about your current physiological status and sign a therapy/liability agreement in which you double check that you have massage therapy clearance from your doctor and you confirm you have no contraindication for manual therapies.
5. You pay in advance a part of the sum to secure the slot and space we agreed upon. This is non-refundable! (Usually around 50 lei/booking, unless stated otherwise in the details of each service). The rest you pay at the end of the therapy. I understand some times an unexpected problem arises, so I assure you we can find a solution to either change the date/hour, get a refund or gift to a friend. I do not refund the money I already paid to a location for booking you a slot if you call me to cancel less than a day before our meeting.
6. For any therapy with me, the best practice is to come well rested & well-hydrated (add 1 extra liter of hydrating liquids 2 days before and after if we work lymphatic drainage). I know that's not always an option, but be mindful that some specific therapies will be less effective if you're dehydrated, inflamed and overtired.
7. After a therapy we keep in touch and you keep me updated on your state of being, how you feel after therapy, if you have any new symptoms (sometimes there is such a thing as a healing crisis and emotional releases - will discuss it later)
What I offer & why work with me
I offer immersive experiences that cater to many senses and attend to the entire body (Pain Weave, Intuitive Bodywork and the other full-body massages) - these therapies include manual techniques that address pain and tension in your tissues, relaxing strokes, tension release maneuvers, techniques that increase blood and lymph flow in tissues and aim to improve the hydration of the fascial structure overall. The massage techniques will always be paired with a little breathwork and sound and smell stimulation that match the purpose of the massage. Mindfulness and meditation infusions are welcome and recommended if you agree to be guided like that as well.
I have extensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology along with energy dynamics (found in eastern medicine practices), psychosomatics and I can provide an explanation for your particular symptoms in easy to understand terms + offer you a few options of how to investigate your situation further (what kind of doctors/specialists to see further, what kind of analysis are available on the market, what alternative medicine options you might try and overall provide you with valuable tools to improve your health).
Work with me if you want to be seen and treated as a whole, wonderful human being.
Work with me if you've found a too-casual/shallow approach in other therapists and you need a deeper soul-to-soul connection with yours.
Work with me if you're willing to accept uncomfortable truths and yet be treated with patience and kindness on your journey to a better-feeling you.
Work with me if we share the dream of being more present, better anchored in our bodies, better discerning of our reality and more confident that our uniqueness of being is what matters the most.
Work with me if you value authenticity, creativity and blissfully weird human experiences.
