Hi Konrad,
simply define a "characteristic function" of your region that is 1 
inside and 0 outside. Then multiply the integrand with this function and 
  integrate over any convenient region large enough to contain the 
original one.
E.g.:
f[x_,y_]:= If[x^2 + y^2 - 2x + 6y ==6,1,0];
Integrate[f[x,y] x y,{x,-3,5},{y,-7,1.1}]
