Advanced Manual Therapy
CranioSacral, lymphatic, neural and visceral techniques for headaches, injuries, chronic pain, and
whole-body balance.
Greetings!
Hi, I’m Tatiana. Thank you for looking me up and letting me introduce myself.
I have been training and working continuously in CranioSacral Therapy, Lymphatic Drainage, Neural Mobilization and Visceral Mobilization since 2003, and to keep my skills up-to-date, I regularly train through with the Barral and Upledger Institutes (founded and operated by Osteopathic Doctors from France and the United States).
I lived and worked in New York City for many years where I founded and operated a busy wellness center and CranioSacral practice where I focused on pain and chronic condition management. In my years in practice, I worked on acute and chronic headaches, back pain, neck pain, spinal injuries, head injuries, concussions, foot injuries and every injury in-between the head and toes. I also worked on lymphedema due to aging, injury, surgery, and post-radiation. My approach is to blend CranioSacral therapy with Lymphatic Drainage, Neural and Visceral Mobilization to get deep and complete fascial releases in the body, thereby creating a condition in the body where the body can bring itself back into balance.
It is a pleasure to share my tools, experience and learnings with this community and help you get back to feeling good in your body.
How does the
therapy work?
There are different layers of fascia (connective tissue) that include muscle, bones, organs (viscera), nerves, and veins and arteries. The concept behind my approach is that many of the issues that create unresolved pain come from problems in the fascia. By quickly identifying which fascial structures are involved or compromised, I can use the tools and approach that best releases those structures and thereby create an efficient and effective release of the tissue and that creates the opportunity for the body to self-correct and heal itself.
Sessions are generally 60 minutes, the work is done with clothes on and is gentle.

What brings me
to Nosara?
My family and I moved to Nosara fulltime in 2021, but we started coming to Nosara in 2011, in 2012 we purchased a piece of neglected and denuded land on the North banks of the Nosara River and started working on the creation of Siva Ashram. In 2013 we planted our first 110 trees. Every year since that first visit, we traveled back and forth to Nosara from NYC to shape the land, plant trees and plants and work on improving the infrastructure of the property.
Moving here in 2021 has accelerated our work on the project and as of 2023, we have planted 9000+ trees and plants and will one day open the property as a botanical garden for public enjoyment.
Client Reviews
“I was in search of someone to fill the shoes of my manual osteopathic practitioner I see back home in Toronto while I spent 18 months in Nosara. I needed support with some chronic concerns (jaw/neck/hip pain) and acute injuries (shoulder and hip). I feel very fortunate to have been recommended to Tatiana and received her outstanding care. As a fellow integrative healthcare provider myself, I appreciate finding people with integrity and commitment to their skillset. Tatiana’s years of training, knowledge and experience are palpable when you are on her treatment table. She has a unique and comprehensive background in massage, cranial sacral therapy, fascial and visceral manipulation. Her approach is gentle, precise and effective. She was able to alleviate my pain and increase my function and range of motion while always giving me context to how her treatments work and helping me understand my body better. Tatiana is an amazing person both inside and outside the treatment room. Not only is she committed to improving the wellbeing of her clients, she is invested in the community of Nosara and restoring the nature it resides in. I’m immensely grateful to have her in my life.”

“Tatiana changed my life. After living with a strange pain in my right side for years that many doctors and scans could not diagnose, she determined what was going on in our first session and corrected it. I continued to see her once a month for “self-care tune-ups” for several years because I loved the work and always felt lighter, more clear, and reconnected with my mind and body after our visits. She is an intelligent and no-nonsense person, but at the same time is funny and deeply caring and I cannot recommend her highly enough and only wish we still lived closer to each other!”

“Tatiana is a true healer. She brings together years of training and technical expertise with her intuitive connection and her deep compassion. I’ve worked with numerous body workers over decades, but Tatiana is the one I trust completely to understand both what is manifesting on a deeper level and what will support recovery of balance and well-being in my body. I am impressed by her humility and commitment to her own ongoing learning and growth. I am incredibly grateful for her dedication to serve the healing of others.”

“When I came in to see Tatiana, I was 28 and bent over like an old man from crippling back pain. I had had back surgery the previous year and was still having constant issues with my back. I walked out of her office a few sessions later with no pain and today I am active and don’t have problems with my back. She became my go-to therapist for the many new injuries I sustained from my active lifestyle as a skier and man-about-town. Tatiana is one of the top 5 most important people in my world.”
