“Following a heavy treatment received for the last 15 years for a severe medical condition, I was hospitalised in a Clinic last autumn with a very high fever that would not improve day after day. Despite intravenous fluids, broad-spectrum antibiotics and sedation ordered by my doctor, nothing could break my fever.
... Until the day Marina came to visit me: she suggested to give me a balance... I was so unwell I could only nod.
My husband, who hadn't left my side in days, was very skeptical (he told me afterwards), and said to himself: "what is it this time? But at this stage why not give it a go?" And so he said yes.
Marina gave me a balance which lasted 2 hrs! My whole body felt like it was on fire and my back was dripping with sweat. I could feel my body temperature progressively dropping and by the afternoon, it was back to normal!! My doctor, who came to see me during the balance, was really perplexed and happily surprised... as for me, I was overjoyed.
Later I enrolled to take the ITb course that Marina was teaching and I completed it with the greatest interest. This course has brought me only happiness, a balance that I was very much in need of in order to “rebirth”, to feel I was in the truth of a new life.
Everyday I say thank you to her. Thank you for the well-being I feel. My barriers came down and I see far in front of me with a great openness. In particular, I don’t feel certain fears which were blocking me and preventing me to be myself, to react the way I feel because I am scared to displease.
To say everything in one word, I feel Free and liberated. And I laugh with humour much more often.
Marina, you are a wonderful woman, you are in my heart."

“Marina is a beautiful lady who treats her patient with her skills, knowledge, experience and her heart. What stood out for me was how genuine Marina’s care is for her patient and their wellbeing. It certainly stands out that Marina treated Isabella as she would her own child. She took whatever time was needed to discuss treatment and progress.
As a newcomer to Edu-Kinesiology, Brain Gym, Integrated Touch Balance and Tibetan Bowls I had no idea what to expect. But, having 7 months of a long and complicated health battle with our daughter Isabella, we were very keen and hopeful that Marina could help her. Isabella had a straightforward appendix operation which followed with a long string of complications over a period of 7 months, a haematoma, a stitch abscess, an incisional hernia, all which were a battle to find and causing crippling pain. She had 3 surgeries, would be well for a few weeks following each and another problem would occur. She had multiple hospital stays, was given morphine, endone and a string of other drugs for pain and side effects of pain drugs. She was in a wheelchair, unable to walk or lift her upper body or legs. By the time we saw Marina, Isabella was a mess! Not just physically, but emotionally she was not her usual happy, bubbly self.
Marina treated Isabella for 5 weeks with Edu-Kinesiology, Brain Gym, Integrated Touch Balance and the Tibetan bowl. Marina’s treatment helped Isabella tremendously on a physical level and an emotional level. In conjunction with Marina’s treatment, Isabella was also treated by a number alternative health care practitioners, all of which contributed to Isabella’s healing.
The first time Isabella saw Marina, she arrived in a wheelchair, in a lot of pain and feeling flat and low. She was very sceptical of Marina’s treatment and was initially not a very willing patient! She believed she needed a “real doctor” to make her better.
The last appointment Isabella saw Marina, 5 weeks later, she walked in, (no longer in the wheelchair!) with no pain (only minor discomfort) and a happy girl again!
Isabella had realised and experienced the value of Marina’s treatment!”.
Sandy, Isabella's mum
“I am a 17 year-old diabetic girl. I think anyone knows that teens are not confident in themselves, especially approaching the exams. I was really stressed during the last 6 months because this year is very important. Moreover, I have some problem to maintain good glucose level regarding my diabete. Therefore, I decided to try to do balances. The fact of balancing the energies of our body made sense.
Before the first session, during the tests at school I could know that I was going to have bad marks, because I couldn't concentrate, etc. The next test, after the first session with Marina, even if I stayed average for the mark, I felt that I answered all the questions, I didn't let go... I felt happy, confident, less stressed, which put me in better conditions for exams”.

I wanted to have a more healthy and balanced approached to eating and after one particular session, I immediately noticed a big shift: I wasn't thinking about food 24/7 or craving junk food as much, and I found I had more control over my snacking. It gave me a boost towards feeling better about myself as a whole."
