About me
Engineer, entrepreneur and practitioner — all of these are me
My name is Iryna. I trained as an engineer: I know how to see a system as a whole, design, calculate and see an idea through to the result. That engineering mindset is still with me today, in the way I build a session, a course or a gathering.
For many years I built businesses: I launched projects, created trademarks and brands, put teams together and led negotiations. I know an entrepreneur’s life from the inside — its pace, its responsibility and the tiredness nobody is supposed to show. So I find it easy to understand people who come to me from that world.
The other part of my path is the body and inner support. I trained in medical rehabilitation and hold international lomi lomi nui certificates. I offer inner child work and rebozo, facial massage, tea ceremonies and transformational games, and I weave mandalas and make jewellery. I also practise yoga — it keeps me grounded in my body and full of energy.
To me these are not separate professions but one story: about getting back your lightness, clarity and strength to move on. I now live on the Costa del Sol, see clients in Marbella and Málaga, and speak Russian and Ukrainian; I work in English and Spanish with an interpreter.

Reviews
Girls, I had a massage with Iryna — it was out of this world! I slept so well, I just drifted off during the massage and woke up renewed and fresh. Highly recommend!
Iryna, thank you for the Hawaiian massage — it was lovely! I had such a good rest. The massage relaxed me so much, I feel like a cat: light and calm. I will recommend you to all my friends!
I also wanted to say thank you for the massage. My muscles feel brand new. I went for a run today and it felt so easy!
I always looked at before-and-after photos with suspicion, so I decided to try it myself — and I can say it works! You can see the result after just one session: my skin feels toned, as if I had shed an old skin. Special thanks for the master’s hands: the massage is deep and very gentle at the same time, with no discomfort at all. An hour and a half of pure pleasure with lovely music!
I keep wanting to come back for another facial massage — there is never enough time, but I think about it all the time and will make it soon!
An interesting experience with the Hawaiian massage! Next time I visit, I want it again.

Frequently asked questions
Which languages do you speak?
Russian and Ukrainian are my native languages. I also understand a little English and Spanish and can work in them with an interpreter.
Where is the studio?
My main studio is in Marbella, and I also see clients in Málaga. Address and directions.
Do you come to homes, villas or hotels?
Massage takes place at the studio only. But courses for couples and groups, inner child work, tea ceremonies and transformational games can be held at your place.
Is this medical treatment?
No. My practices support relaxation and wellbeing; they are not medical treatment and do not replace a doctor. If you have a health condition, please check with your doctor first.
