Vitaly Vinogradov · massage therapist
My journey to the East began at the age of ten with wushu. Martial arts gave way to yoga and five years at the Tibetan Educational School “SOTIS”: alternative wellbeing methods, various Eastern massage techniques and Ayurveda. Further study and work at the Ayurvedic clinic “Calendula”, under some of the best Ayurvedic physicians, defined my Path, which I still follow.
The wish to apply this knowledge in practice led to three years of Ayurveda study at the best Ayurvedic clinic in Europe, “Calendula”. After training, practice and work at the clinic, I went on to apply this knowledge at the Ayurvedic centre “Rasayana” in Riga. An offer to work at the private immunology clinic “Immunoclinica” prompted me to gain a Western education as a massage therapist (physiotherapy). Training in spa techniques in Krakow and obtaining Europass, seminars and festivals, cooperation with the International Centre for Human Health Research “TAO” and experience in leading spas (“Taka Spa”, “Paradise”, “La Daile”) complete the circle of my interests.
The wish to share this knowledge with a wider circle of people grew into several projects, which led to the successful use of the foundations of the Eastern approach to massage and health in modern wellness centres and spas. Today, teaching the principles of Eastern massage to working professionals and giving seminars are combined with a private practice in which I use Eastern and modern massage techniques adapted for Western clients.

The method
How I work
My method is based on a synthesis of the Eastern approach to health with modern knowledge and techniques, which give stable results for problems such as back and joint pain, stress, excess weight and digestive disorders.
What the Eastern approach means
- An individual approach to the person and their problem, in which the person consciously takes part in working on their health, clearly understanding what they are doing and why.
- The priority is to find and resolve the cause that keeps a person from being healthy, rather than to remove the symptom.
- Changing movement and posture habits, not just doing exercises.
- Use of natural remedies.
What modern techniques are
These are methods of working with the deep tissues that connect our body into a single whole. Tension in these tissues disturbs the overall harmony of rhythms, breathing and movement. Such gentle osteopathic techniques are very effective and safe for children, older people and people recovering from conditions that do not allow strong intervention.
What guarantees an effective, lasting result
- A person who understands the causes that harmed their health begins to change their lifestyle, takes responsibility for their health and joins in the work of restoring it.
- Gentle techniques that are safe for children and older people.
- Use of natural remedies.
- Many years of experience in clinics and spas, and knowledge passed on directly by masters in very different areas of human wellbeing.
