For every action, there is an equal, opposite reaction. Therefore, does the space station move in the opposite direction each time an astronaut pushes off from a bulkhead?

Since the space station is in a basic vacuum, it would seem that every movement made in the space station would move the space station a bit in the opposite direction. Or, am I missing something?
