From a young age Sini has been doing different kinds of sports, including running, skiing, cross-country skiing and football. She competed in running until the age of 19, winning 3 x junior Finnish championship in 3000 m running.
At the age of 17, injuries started disturbing Sini′s running career. Lower back problems and shin splints were causing her a lot of pain, and therefore she became more interested in the human body; how it works, and what can be done to prevent injuries.
At the age of 20, she decided to apply to study in the massage institute to learn more how the human body functions. She started her studies in Helsinki 2007, and graduated 2008.
She worked in Helsinki as a massage therapist until the year 2010, before moving to Spain with her partner.
As a caring, down to earth person Sini loves being able to help other people. She wants to make every massage experience unique for each client, by combining different techniques; deep tissue massage, Sports massage, relaxation massage and Indian head massage. Her goal is to make sure each client leaves the clinic feeling revitalized.
He was in a lot of pain and wasn’t able to walk properly, raising his arm to write on the board was an impossible task. He was suffering for 2 months and doctors were unable to find a way to relieve the pain.
Fortunately he found a Chinese chiropractor who was finally able to help him lead a normal life again through massage and acupuncture.
After 6 sessions he was able to play football again – his love affair with massage began! He then realised how important a massage is in one’s daily life and he has one as often as he can.
Many years later he started a trip which ended up lasting 10 years circumnavigating the globe and he was fortunate enough to experience massages from around the world understanding and learning the different techniques.
When he decided to settle down he started his professional masseur course and is now the happiest person in the world helping people the same way the Chinese chiropractor helped him all those years ago.
