My Practice

"Reminding the body how to heal thru deep relaxation"

I offer nervous-system focused massage to support the body's natural healing which I approach with an intuitive style, cultivated through Thai massage and self taught techniques.

My refinement came from working alongside an RMT on Salt Spring Island where I had the opportunity to build a clientele - moving my practice to Victoria and now Vancouver.

As a movement artist, I've learned to listen to my own body's needs which I extend onto the recipient, letting your body lead while I follow with presence.

What to expect;

Thai-inspired body rocking to ground the nervous system
The flow of Lomi Lomi but without continuous touch as I like the recipient to feel the space between touch
Attention to back and leg line points or Sen lines
Slow + deep entry of touch as I move first thru skin, fascia and muscle - helping to build trust within the intelligence of the body

What you may experience;

Investigation in my touch as I explore points of tension around the map of each unique body
A tailored approach to the left + right sides as their own entities with different needs than the other, depending on what the body communicates to me
A non-repetitive technique that helps you relax deeper by reducing the brain’s tendency to find patterns in my method
Varied touch - from light, stimulating sweeps to deep pressure points
Leave feeling affected while deeply restored + nurtured

Looking forward to sharing space with you,
Mayari.

“Mayari has a beautiful, intuitive and loving touch. My massage with her allowed me to enter a deep, relaxing and dreamy place within and I left feeling so good in my body. I will definitely continue body work with Mayari.”

"I think Mayari is incredibly talented at bodywork, and providing a soothing and healing environment. At no other times in my life does 90 minutes feel so short, as when I'm in Mayari’s care with her soft, kind energy. The whole experience was deeply touching and caring on levels well beyond the body’s experience alone.”
