I’m based in Chudleigh, Tasmania near the beautiful Great Western Tiers / Kooparoona Niara.
A holistic approach to health, fitness and healing is very important to me, one that brings together the principles and practices of traditional / classical medicine from around the world.
Holistic health has been a way of life for me since 1995, with training in Reflexology in 1996, Traditional Thai Massage in 2008 / 2018, Traditional Medicine (specialising in Nutritional Therapy) in 2016, Cupping Therapy in 2017, Yoga Teacher Training in 2024 and Qigong Wellness coaching in 2025.
As a therapist, I have offered traditional Thai massage and cupping therapy to people with chronic pain and psychosomatic issues, and for stress, injury and post-operative relief.
Personally, for the past thirty years I’ve followed a pure wholefood vegetarian diet with integrated aspects of the raw food and fruitarian ways of life. Plants, and wholefood in general, play an important medicinal role in body-mind-soul health and healing.
Finding the best path to long-lasting natural health is my number one priority as a traditional medicine practitioner.

My family has a medical tradition with my great grandmother one of the first women in Russia to be accepted and trained as a medical doctor. She met her husband in Moscow, where they married, and later moved to Switzerland. Her son, my grandfather, was also a GP, with a practice in Geneva.
Passion
My passions are long distance bushwalking and trail running as forms of slow travel, time out, and connectedness with the natural world.
