Maraya is incredible. She’s a delight to talk to, listens incredibly well and adopts her methods to your personal needs. She used a combination of Lomi Lomi and deep tissue massage that both worked out knots in my back and shoulders and was incredibly relaxing. I left feeling better than I had in weeks. I can’t recommend her strongly enough.

Excellent and Intuitive! Had another terrific massage with Maraya last night. I loved every minute of the Lomi Lomi experience. Her style is very intuitive and healing, and I left feeling relaxed, energized, and reconnected to the world. If you have the chance to reveive a massage from Maraya, I highly recommend it!

Had a fabulous massage one day before my last day of caring for very active toddlers. The tense, sore and tired muscles in my neck, back, arms and legs feel so rejuvenated! Thank you, Maraya, for the strong, warm, and healing massage. I recommend Maraya’s art/work without reservation!

I love that Maraya truly enjoys what she does with massage and body work… almost as much as I love getting it! And she’s just full of love and amazing at what she does. The ambience was warm and welcoming, and her massage table is super comfy. I left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and totally blissed out… and dreaming about next time!

I found Maraya randomly on a Sunday evening. I’d been sick all weekend and wanted to do something relaxing on my birthday the next day… and well, she sure delivered! I’ve only had a few massages in my lifetime, but this by far, was the most relaxing and enjoyable one I’ve had. Maraya was definitely in-tuned to my body’s needs — she applied the perfect amount of pressure and made sure to focus on my troubled areas. I will definitely be returning to her again! Thanks also to the Unilocalers who helped me find this gem!

I had the best massage of my life — lomi lomi– with Maraya. She’s highly skilled, intuitive and is fully present and communicative when she works with you. I felt the deepest sense of relaxation and well-being after her massage — what a gift!

As another member on the growing list of Maraya’s clients with extensive prior massage experience, I too can attest to Maraya earning high marks in professionalism, care, adaptability, detail orientation and sincerity in her work and the people it brings her into contact with. Maraya is keenly aware of the fact that her hands are but one instrument in the ensemble of an exceptional massage experience. She combines them with a level of conscientiousness and communication not usually found in someone without an extensive tenure in massage therapy, making each session a kind of hand-crafted snowflake; so individually tailored as to be utterly unique from every other. Maraya is not only very good at what she does, she is only getting better. Having moved too far away from my lifetime masseuse to be able to make appointments any more than once a year, I’m so relieved to know that such a suitable alternative exists here.

I was not familiar with lomi lomi before experiencing this massage with Maraya. She recommended I try out this modality and I went for it. I must say that I have never had a massage like this. The combination of deep massage and gentle touch and the use of coconut oil rather than standard massage oil(literally) made me melt. Oftentimes getting a professional massage can feel almost clinical, like a glorified chair massager. My experience with Maraya was the opposite of this. I felt so taken care of and nurtured. Pretty much guarantee that you will not be disappointed…

Infant massage with Maraya is such a wonderful experience! She has such a sweet and calming nature about her that relaxed both my baby and me. Her instructions are clear and informative. Always on time and professional, it was such a joy to learn from her. Please do your baby and yourself a favor and schedule an infant massage session with her!

The massage with Maraya was wonderful. She asked me to arrive early to go over both problem areas and specific requests for massage. The lomi massage was both strong and gentle. I loved that she asked for feedback(and wrote notes!) about what I would like more of if there was a next time. Maraya, there DEFINITELY will be a next time! Thank you so much!

Maraya is a truly exceptional massage therapist and teacher. Thus far I met her with 3 times each for an hour to learn how to massage my 5 month old baby girl. She is incredibly professional and knowledgeable about infant massage. She was able to explain how each stroke relates to various functions in the body and how healing this practice can be for all involved. Maraya radiates warmth and ease, her presence instantly creates a calming environment. She is playful, nurturing, kind, intuitive and patience. I highly recommend her! If you have a baby or know anyone who does give them the gift of massage with Maraya!
