Bodywork
What happens
It starts with a soothing hot stone aromatherapy foot bath and an exfoliating scrub.
Then a calming massage of the feet and lower legs with herbalised oil, followed by a nourishing hand massage and moisturiser. It's cooling and refreshing.
A hot stone foot bath is a warm, scented soak with heated stones in the water, and the scrub exfoliates the feet before the oil goes on. The massage of the feet and lower legs uses herbalised oil the way padabhyanga does, and the hand massage works the palms, fingers and forearms before the moisturiser.
It's made for hands that type and feet that stand, and for a spare 45 minutes in the middle of a day.

Read on GoogleSwitching seamlessly between deep reassuring pressure and the lightest continuous ‘laying hands on’ all while integrating hot towels, fragrant oils, sound bells, rolling balls and weighted bags. The effect is richly sensual, transporting and mind calming. Life will stop, the busy world of adulting vanishes. Breathe. Taking this precious time to be swaddled in warm love like an infant feels necessarily grounding and replenishing. If you have ever been told to look after yourself this experience is the embodiment of care and love.
Read on GoogleThis was my first visit and my first time experiencing an Ayurvedic treatment. Having chosen the Ayurvedic 'nourish and restore' with steam therapy, I can hand on heart say these treatments with Marye were amazing. I would highly recommend Maiaveda for anyone looking for a few hours of blissful escapism from everyday life.
Read on GoogleAbsoluely blissful. Samantha was friendly, professional and must have hands of magic.
Read on GoogleI just returned from a transformative 3-day retreat at Maiaveda Wellness Spa, and I can’t recommend it enough! This experience was exactly what I needed to recharge and recover from burnout. The luxurious treatments were nothing short of amazing; each one left me feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated. The staff truly made this retreat special. Mayre, Sam and Inta were exceptionally lovely, ensuring that I felt comfortable and pampered throughout my stay. I was enveloped in a safe and nurturing environment where I felt genuinely cared for. The team's expertise and kindness allowed me to fully surrender to the experience, leaving behind all my worries. Mayre, the owner, went above and beyond to take care of my every need, continually checking in and making me feel valued. I am so grateful to Mayre for making my stay so wonderful. After the retreat, I emerged with a sense of bliss and rejuvenation that I haven’t felt in ages. If you’re looking for a sanctuary to unwind and heal, Maiaveda Wellness Spa is definitely the place to be!
Read on GoogleMaiaveda is the most wonderful place to land, stop, take a breath, and be. As part of a panchakarma process I was in the capable, caring hands of Marye, who saw me through several ayurvedic treatments. Her knowledge, skills and care are first rate, and the treatments themselves are divine. Highly recommend.
Read on GoogleFor my birthday I received a gift voucher from my son and daughter in law to a retreat in Kyneton. When I opened the envelope and gazed at the symbols and colors on the letterhead I felt a sense of innate knowing in my heart and a deep love and gratitude moved me to tears even though I had not heard of Maiaveda before. I was told it was my son that found the place and chose it for his mother. From my arrival at the train station until my departure I felt nurtured and looked after and it allowed me to feel safe and to let go. The doors into Maiaveda are like a mothers loving arms and inside the rooms I found the gentle, loving hands of Joanne and Gracie moving all the tension and stagnation in my body and the wisdom of Marye's presence and words that gently reset my mind into more stillness. Marye held space for me so I could safely find my way home to my heart. Thank you Marye, I promised myself I will 'polish' my heart daily 😄 and shine my light brightly!
Read on GoogleI have recently spent a full week in Kyneton in the capable hands of Marye O'Brien and her incredibly skilled therapists at Maiaveda. It was an experience I shall never forget and I will certainly return for more pampering in the not-too-distant future. Mary is a kind compassionate soul and all of the ladies who work with her are highly trained and nurturing. I returned home feeling rested, rejuvenated and inspired like a new woman...well, at 70 years old....almost new! 😂
Read on GoogleHad the most amazing experience with Tara. From the onset the signature massage was so relaxing. Starting with a foot bath while Tara explaining the process. Being lead to the massage room that was dimly lit, with a calming scent, and beautiful sounds. The signature massage was just right with the warm oils, the wrapping of body to felt so nurturing, the placing of the heat packs on the body made me feel so secure and relaxed and ending of the sound bowl on each side of my head was grounding. The experience was divine I will make 1.5hr journey again to do it again. Highly recommend. My daughter also had the signature massage with Mary and she came out with the biggest smile on her face.

Read on GoogleRecently, I was treated to a heavenly massage experience courtesy of a gift voucher with Tara. Let me tell you, it was nothing short of divine! From the moment I stepped into the Maiaveda sanctuary, I felt like I was walking on air. Tara's warmth and expertise transported me to a state of pure bliss. Every detail of the Maiaveda signature treatment was meticulously thought out, from the heavenly foot soak in the tranquil room to the expert touch of Tara's hands, which seemed to possess their own wisdom. I found myself melting into the table, completely lost in the moment. But it wasn't just the treatment itself that left me in awe. The exquisite room, the warm oils, the soft towels – every little touch added to the experience, making it truly unforgettable.
