Hi, I’m Domi Oikarinen
Massage Therapist & Yoga Instructor
I was born and raised in Michigan’s U.P., on the beautiful Keweenaw Peninsula in the Copper Country, within eyesight of Lake Superior. I got my BS in Anthropology from MSU in 2009, served in the Peace Corps in Paraguay, then finally moved to Chicago in 2012 and settled in Rogers Park in 2018.
I studied Massage Therapy at the SOMA Institute in Downtown Chicago, graduating in 2016. I earned my Yoga Teacher certificate from YogaView in 2019.
Each person’s body and lifestyle are different. I will work with you to develop an individualized massage treatment, whether you want to alleviate pain, recover from an injury, or reduce stress and just relax. My approach is focused and thorough, with fine attention to detail, and I maintain open communication. (Unless you fall asleep, of course!)
Compassion
Everyone has a different experience in life, even day to day. I approach every experience with non-judgemental attitude, an open mind and a kind heart.
Inclusion
All people are welcome. Any age, gender, body type, lifestyle or life experience. LGBTQIA+ friendly. I respect every person as an individual, each with their unique needs and preferences. Hablo español.
Authenticity
I believe in open and honest communication. I will honor any questions you may have with a complete and truthful response.
