Since footage of Rodionova's techniques have gone viral, a slew of mothers online have slammed the swim teacher, labelling the woman pure 'evil'.
"This woman is evil," one mother wrote on Facebook.
"Only a sadist would do this to a child."
Despite her onslaught of critics, there have been many parents to come out and defend both Rodionova and her unconventional healing method, with one mother claiming Elena was 'sent by God'.
According to 7News, a local mother - named Olga - told a local publication: "She taught my child a great deal.
"My child with cerebral palsy began to walk.
"If you do not know Elena, you do not know what miracles she performs."
