Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is a general term referring to several practices of manipulating soft tissue for therapeutic purposes. Massage incorporates manual touch to improve circulation, relax muscles, improve range of motion, and increase endorphin levels.

I’ve spent most of my life living in Alberta, although I was born in Poland. My family came to Canada when I was almost 4 years old and have been living in Edmonton ever since.

After finishing high school, I completed some post secondary in Business studies at Grant MacEwan, a Personal Training certification from the international Sport and Science Association and completed the 3000 hour Massage Therapy program at MaKami College. This education has solidified my understanding of how the body functions, in movement and at rest. Since graduating in 2017, I’ve focused my practice on Fascial Decompression. Working very deep into the tissue, but gently, offering a different approach to the “traditional massage”. I’m also working towards becoming certified in Kinetic Massage, which allows for movement and stretching along with traditional massage techniques. These two modalities are incredibly effective and have a relaxing and therapeutic effect on pain and tension.

I am very excited to bring this knowledge to RecovrPhysio. My goal is to incorporate my education into a specialized treatment plan and get clients moving and feeling better long term.

I am originally from Moscow, Russia. In my twenties, I became very passionate about dance and bodywork. I took many training programs and participated in some dance projects as a principal dancer.
I was graduated with honors from the University of Physical Culture in Moscow. Several years ago, I also learned about yoga therapy as a wellness system and worked as a yoga instructor in Russia. During that time, I met many different people and one of them became my teacher in Thai massage therapy. I finished three different training courses in Thai treatment and felt I was on the right road towards realizing my potential as a health facilitator. In 2013, my family and I moved to Canada. I continued my journey as a health facilitator by finishing my 2200-hour training at the Massage Therapy College of Manitoba. At this point, my journey transformed my view of the value of touch. These past years, I mastered the Myofascial Cupping Technique, Sport Massage Technique, finished all modalities with Tissue Talk Academy and I am on my way to become a Cranio Sacral therapist. Moreover, I had a privilege to work with young athletes at the special events across Alberta and become a mom of the elite athlete. I am helping my daughter, Sofya Fursova to reach her dream in Figure Skating world to become an Olympian. Massage Therapy has become my passion and style of living. I facilitate my clients with desire to bring their body and mind into balance.
