Graduating at the top of her class she came highly recommended from my trusted friend & colleague at The Swedish Institute.  Viktoriya has a background in dental medicine since 2008 (Doctor of Dental Medicine/DMD back in the Ukraine!).  She has been in the US since 2013 working as a dental assistant in NYC.  

 

Viktoriya was drawn to massage therapy because she enjoys helping people feel better about themselves.  Her goal is to help each of you achieve balance, relieve pain & tension, allowing you to live your life to the fullest.
