I graduated from massage school in 2019. And immediately I started working as a masseur in Mustvee. I am constantly improving my knowledge and skills, learning different techniques from the field of massage.

I think it is very important in massage to listen to the client and understand their specific needs and goals, whether they are relaxation, pain relief, or muscle tension reduction.

My hobbies include dancing and running. My life motto: \”Movement is life!\” Aristoteles
