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.

Mind and body
What happens
Whether you want help making sense of what's going on, you're curious about your past or your future, or you'd like to connect more deeply with your own intuition, a reading offers new perspectives to explore.
Bookings are with Maggie.
Tarot began as a card game in Italy, recorded by 1440: a normal four suit pack with 21 picture trumps and the Fool added, 78 cards in all. Reading the cards for meaning came much later, in France in the 18th century. A reading is a conversation: you bring a question, the reader lays the cards out in a pattern, and the two of you talk through what the pictures suggest.
It's made for a decision that's going round in circles, and for a look at a situation from outside your own head.

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. ♥️
Read on GoogleYesterday 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.
Read on GoogleMy 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.
Read on GoogleI 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
Read on GoogleWe had a great time at Maiaveda health retreat and spa. It was my husband's birthday and we booked massages for my family. They even had option for our 7 years old daughter. Clean rooms, clean towels, great ambiance and very accomodating girls. Claudia made sure that i am comfortable throughout my massage as i have several back issues and it gets really hard for me sometimes to lie flat on bed. Pressure was perfect. Oils smelled great. My daughter and husband had great time as well. They also treated us with some goodies in the end for my husbands birthday and we loved the jesture. My new favorite spa in Melbourne.
Read on GoogleMy previous experiences with massage & facials have been per functionary to address an injury or in the lead up to special event. How lovely then that my two hours experience was a purely selfish indulgence. I was kept warm the whole time and even drifted off to sleep! Can't recommend Pam or the service I experienced highly enough!
Read on GoogleFrom one tired and sore mum, the pregnancy massage was beyond incredible. From the moment I walked up the stairs to Maiaveda, I felt a sense of peace. Marye welcomed me with such warmth, and the beautiful aromas instantly made me feel relaxed. The oils smelled divine and felt so nourishing on my skin. Claudia’s massage was amazing — I actually walked out feeling like I was floating. I’ll definitely be back. It wasn’t just a massage; it was a whole mind and body reset. I’m so grateful to have experienced this
Read on GoogleAn 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:)
Read on GoogleI’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.
Read on GoogleThank you Marye and Pam, 90 minute massage, scub and reflexology treatment. Gentle, warming and restorative. I felt relaxed and comfortable for the entire experience. We are very fortunate to have this business in Kyneton. You will be in very good hands. Namaste ❤️
Read on GoogleQuite honestly the most wonderful massage experience I've ever had. Marye made me feel welcomed from the moment I stepped through the door. The massage was incredible leaving me feeling utterly nourished and relaxed. I can't recommend Maiaveda enough.
