Essi in Helsinki (Helsinki), Finland

Massage Therapist

Hello, my name is Essi and I come from Helsinki Finland.

When I was young I always envied people who knew what they wanted to be when they grew old… I had no idea. As I did not know what I wanted I moved to the Swiss mountains, to a ski town called Verbier, and lived as a ski bum for few years.

Being inspired by the multi cultural environment I wanted to find a more serious way to stay so I took a massage course hoping to find stable work there. But little did I know that this work would become so much more than only a way to make money. It became my thing. I graduated as a massage therapist 1999.

Few years working and doing an apprentice with a local Healer woman opened my eyes for a whole new world. I started to be passionate about work and the human being. In 2002 I started my studies of osteopathy from which I graduated spring 2007. v Today I am a qualified Osteopath and Massage Therapist & just loving what I do. With all the treatments that I do (Deep Tissue, Swedish, Lomi-Lomi, Reflexology) my aim is to heal and to give an overall good feeling.

After living ten years in different countries I returned home to Helsinki where I continue meeting interesting people and learning about life. I am now a proud Mother which keeps me busier than ever.

This is one of the many reasons Dr Dot’s offer to work for her was an opportunity that I just couldn’t pass up.

“Lars (Stockholm Dotbot) took care of the band-members and left all in awe! He provided a table, towels etc which made it very easy to work with. Very on point and definitely made for an amazing show at night - thank you again! Romi (Prague Dotbot) came by, arrived early, was very well prepped (had her own table, scented candles, oils, towels) and had the brightest smile we'd seen in days! She took care of the band-members who all were left amazed and startled by her touch ;) Thanks Romana, def will hit you up next time round. Martijn Tour Manager - Ben Howard”

“To Whom It May Concern: I have been touring for about 22 years with many different bands (Dave Matthews, Tracy Chapman, Primus, etc etc...) The masseuse I had today for The Weepies show at The State Room in SLC, Danielle, was perhaps one of the best I have ever had. Everything from her disposition to her skills. My entire band and crew adored her. I felt it was important to tell how amazing this woman was, and how she brightened our day. Best Regards, Brett Manager – The Weepies”
