Facials

What happens

LED light therapy is used for the look of redness, breakouts and skin that's changing with age. A single session is thirty minutes.

For results that last, we recommend a course of twelve.

LED light therapy uses a panel of light emitting diodes set to a particular colour, held over the face for a set time. The light is gentle and does not heat the skin, and there is nothing to recover from afterwards.

You lie back under the panel with your eyes covered, for thirty minutes. Which colour your therapist uses depends on what your skin is doing at the time.

It is made to be repeated, which is why it is offered as a course of twelve. It also sits inside two of the Roccoco facials: the Brightening Facial uses it, and the Soothing Rose Facial closes with it.

An absolutely gorgeous atmosphere with gentle lighting and subtle aromas in the air. Marye is so in tune, and a truly brilliant practitioner. I felt completely nurtured and relaxed beyond words:)

I’ve been visiting Maiaveda for the past six years, and it continues to be my absolute sanctuary. Every experience is consistently nurturing, professional, and deeply restorative especially through my pregnancies. During my current pregnancy, I had massage with Claudia, and she was incredible. All the therapists knowledge, care, and intuition make me feel completely supported and safe each time. They all have a beautiful way of adapting the treatment to exactly what your body needs, and I always walk out feeling lighter, calmer, and genuinely cared for. The environment at Maiaveda is warm, peaceful, and truly holistic exactly what you want when looking to unwind or reconnect with yourself. I recommend it wholeheartedly, especially for pregnancy care. It’s a place where you can trust you’ll be looked after with kindness and expertise.

Marye is truly incredible. Her touch, her energy, and her calming presence feel absolutely magical. Every time I see her, I leave feeling grounded, supported, and deeply connected. She even took time out of her day off to hold space for me on my birthday, which shows her genuine care. Marye is a true light and an angel in human form. I can’t recommend her enough. 🌸🙏

Switching 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.

I opted for the retreat with Marye over the many options available in Aus and O/S. I’m so grateful I did, it was exactly what I needed. Marye and team are exceptionally kind with a calm, caring nature that kept me pampered and cocooned inside and out. I left feeling lighter and brighter in body and spirit. The property at St Agnes for the retreat accomodation is also so charming and even more so with Kyneton in Autumn, lovely hosts too. Reading in the sunroom at St Agnes between treatments with Marye and team will be a treasured memory of mine for many years to come. I left with practical tips and support on how to take some of these wonderful practices back into everyday life. Thank you Marye and team, I look forward to visiting again and couldn’t recommend you more highly.

A wonderful experience with Joanne... I had really low energy, physically and mentally exhausted prior to my Somatic Bodywork session. I felt a sense of peace and much lighter following the session, thank you so much Joanne!

For 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!

I was so fortunate to spend 3 days at Maiaveda. I was feeling deflated and lost after dealing with personal issues and my mental health was struggling. I went in with an open mind and walked away with a new belief and a life full of endless possibilities. Marye was so kind, gentle and held me in a safe place full of grace. Everything just poured out of me, tears, emotions, sadness and love. When I cried Marye held me and in that moment I knew I was meant to share my experiences with this beautiful soul. I have never felt such comfort and joy in all my life. I will be forever grateful for our paths crossing. I truly believe the universe lead me to Marye. I stayed at the gorgeous homestead where Marye had filled up the fridge with beautiful tasty organic food. I was feeling very spoilt and the owners were very friendly, she even knocked on my door one evening offering me a piece of apple cake she had made that day. Tara gave me an amazing 3 hour treatment of massage and reiki on my first day. Tara is so lovely. I learnt so much about myself in the 3 days and left feeling so much lighter. The treatments and chats with Marye were just what I needed. Marye and Tara made me feel like I was the only person on the planet showing how dedicated they were to just me. Marye would text me at night to see if I needed anything on her way home. I have also received contact and support apon returning home. I beg anyone reading this who is struggling in life challenges to treat yourself and go and see Marye and her gorgeous team at Maiaveda. It will be the best experience and decision you'll ever make. I was emotional saying goodbye to Marye because I felt such a strong connection and knew that she really cared for me. Marye you truly are some kind of wonderful. ♥️

I have been wanting to try Maiaveda for over 2 years now but had so much going on. Recently, I gave birth to our premature baby boy and needed some care for myself. My husband reminded me to see if there were any last-minute bookings and I was so lucky to have a spot free last Saturday with Marye. The greeting and welcoming I received from Marye was so caring and nurturing that I was taken aback. My feet were bathed, comfy slippers provided, and a special mantra to help me heal. I felt safe and so special. My signature massage transcended me into another realm. Marye knew exactly what I needed, not just physically but spiritually. I have never had a massage like this before, and I finally found my place, it felt like home. I am already planning to book on a regular basis. I left feeling full and light, re-energised. Im very grateful to Marye and Maiaveda, what a magical place. Thank you for realigning me.

Yesterday I had the most amazing facial and massage with Claudia. From the moment I walked in I felt instantly nurtured, the whole experience made me feel taken care of. What an amazing place, the products used are beautiful and the ambience throughout was so relaxing. I would definitely book again the next time I am in Kyneton.

My husband Gary & I went to Maiaveda for a Panchakarma, an Ayurvedic cleanse. We had treatments that would help our bodies prepare for a very deep cleanse. It was an amazingly powerful and empowering life changing experience spiritually, emotionally physically and mentally. We were welcomed with a lot of warmth & reassurance. Each visit was filled a lot of genuine love, support and compassion. Nothing was ever too much trouble, you had Marye’s & her team 100% focus & attention. The treatment rooms were truely unique filled with loving calm energy. Both my husband & I could not recommend it more highly. A place well worth a visit.

I had an absolutely incredible experience at Maiaveda!! The moment I walked in, the atmosphere was so calm and welcoming. The space is peaceful, and instantly puts you in relaxation mode. The massage itself was exactly what I needed, easily one of the best I’ve ever had. Claudia was highly skilled, attentive, and made sure to check in at the right moments. I felt completely rejuvenated and relaxed afterwards. You can tell that everyone who works there is truly passionate about what they do, wanting to make sure everyone has the best experience possible. I can’t wait to book my next appointment. Highly recommend. Xx
