Maria Medvedska is an esthetician and massage therapist licensed in the states of New York, Florida, and California. She brings her expertise in skin care and various massage modalities from the east coast, where she worked at various spas and physical therapy and chiropractor centers.
Her career as an esthetician and massage therapist began in sunny Florida in mid '90s, after her completion of a 600-hour massage and 400-hour skin care training in West Palm Beach, FL.
Having relocated to New York City in late '90s, Maria continued her education at the “Harvard of Massage”, the Swedish Institute, College of Health Sciences where she completed 1200-hour massage therapy program and graduated with the Degree of Associate in Occupational Studies / Massage Therapy in 2002.
In 1999 Maria completed a 600-hour Esthetics Curriculum at the Christine Valmy International School of Esthetics and received her New York license in advanced skin care.
After about 5 years in the field of massage therapy and skin care, Maria realized that for some clients even the best massage therapy provides only temporary relief from their aches and pains due to their overall poor physical condition and a low level of fitness. Being passionate about healthy lifestyles, Maria took the course of Basic Exercise Science at the Swedish Institute and became an NSCA-certified personal trainer. As a result, she is in the position not only to give a facial or a massage, but also help her clients choose a healthier lifestyle and improve their fitness level.
Extensive training at the International Dermal Institute and Dermalogica gave Maria not only knowledge of skin care products and cosmetic ingredients, but a set of solid skills in various types of facials and body treatments. Over the years she has also become an expert in the art of eyebrow shaping, as well as in safe and near painless waxing, in particular, the Brazilian.
Maria brings together postural assessment, Medical, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Points massage, Neuromuscular techniques, Myofascial Release, Facilitated (PNF) Stretching, and Hot/Cold Stone Therapy in order to make every treatment unique to each client’s specific needs.
Her special skills include:
- Holistic skin care
- Clinical massage
- Corrective exercise
- Functional training and injury prevention, especially for athletes over 50.
She advocates the principals of healthy nutrition formulated by
Hippocrates: “Let food be your medicine and let medicine be your food”.
