My Approach

Understanding the whole person changes the way we care.

01

Look Beyond the Symptom

Pain, tension, posture, and movement patterns do not exist in isolation. I look at the whole person to understand what the body may be communicating.

02

Individual Care

Every mother, baby, and child is different. Each session is shaped around the person's body, needs, development, and stage of life.

03

Support, Never Force

Healthy movement cannot be imposed. I help create the conditions the body needs to feel safe, explore, and discover better possibilities.

04

Educate and Empower

Understanding creates confidence. I help parents and clients recognize their body's signals and continue providing meaningful support beyond each session.

About Dinara

Guided by curiosity.
Grounded in care.

My name is Dinara Shaul. I'm a Registered Massage Therapist, Infant Development Specialist & Instructor, and Certified Infant Massage Instructor. I also hold a Bachelor's degree in Education and a Master's degree in Philology.

Before entering healthcare, I worked as a teacher and spent eight years as a diamond grader. Teaching shaped the way I explain complex information, while diamond grading trained me to notice subtle details and patterns — skills that guide my work today.

Infant Development

Understand your baby.
Support their development.

Babies communicate through their bodies long before they have words. The way they move, look, respond to touch, or react during tummy time can tell us what feels comfortable — and what may feel challenging.

Through careful observation, gentle touch and movement, and parent education, I help families understand their baby's body and create a supportive environment for healthy development.

Arching or difficulty with tummy time

Dinara gave me an amazing prenatal massage! She was gentle, attentive, and really helped ease my pregnancy aches. I left feeling relaxed and cared for. Highly recommend!

Julia

Dinara is an exceptional pediatric massage therapist. She is extremely knowledgeable and every appointment that my kids have with her is very enjoyable. She knows how to establish an excellent rapport with her little patients and the results are apparent even after one treatment. I have noticed an improvement in my kids behavior and physical well-being after each appointment.

Teodora

I also want to commend RMT Dinara. Given my high-risk pregnancy, I was initially hesitant about getting prenatal massages, but she immediately put me at ease. Her professionalism, skill, and calming presence made every session a positive experience. I would absolutely recommend her as well. Excited to take some of the newborn classes she provides.

Neelam

Dinara Shaul is super professional, my son 4 years old has speech delay, she is super patient and my son was sleep on the bed and let her do the massages, we are surprised that my son will follow all her directions. It is too short for 30 min
