Svetlana Koneva Elistratova was born in Severomorsk and grew up in the city of Obninsk, Kaluga region. From an early age, her interest led her to medicine: in 1992 she graduated from the Medical College at the Research Institute of Medical Radiology of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences with a degree in Nursing and began working in a hospital as a ward and procedural nurse.

Continuing to develop in her profession, in 2002 Svetlana completed state advanced training courses in pediatric medical massage, and in 2012 she undertook additional training in pediatric massage at the Moscow Medical College.

She worked as a pediatric massage therapist in a city polyclinic, and later in a specialized orthopedic kindergarten, where she gained valuable experience before moving into private practice.

In 2013 Svetlana moved to Spain, where she continued her professional career. In 2023 she successfully graduated from the Instituto Malaqueño de Osteopatía, receiving a diploma in pediatric massage, and also completed a course in the field of Integración total cráneo.

The main focus of her work is pediatric medical massage. Svetlana practices both classical therapeutic massage and specialized techniques for various conditions: posture disorders, hyper- and hypotonia, valgus and varus foot positioning, torticollis, and umbilical hernia. She also helps children with hyperactivity and autism spectrum disorders, including by using percussion massage.

Svetlana pays special attention to interaction with parents: she is open in communication and always strives to explain in detail and in an accessible way which steps are necessary for the child’s correction and recovery.

Her main principle is “do no harm.”

When working with the youngest patients — starting from three months of age — Svetlana always takes full responsibility for every movement and every recommendation.

Today, while continuing her beloved work in pediatric massage, Svetlana is also developing new directions: studying a course in natural facial rejuvenation, vitaplasty, and undergoing further advanced training, staying true to professional growth and care for her patients.
