What happens

Royal Rejuvenation is offered only by our founder, Marye O'Brien, and it is three hours rather than two.

Foot reflexology works specific points on the feet in a set sequence. Marma point therapy presses the places the Sushruta Samhita names where muscle, vessel, ligament, bone and joint meet; there are 107 of them, and they are worked with light touch. Sound healing is a sound bath with crystal bowls, chimes and gongs played over you while you lie still. Shirodhara is warm oil in a stream across the forehead.

Three hours with the founder, in the order she'd choose for herself. It's made for the once a year visit, and for a body that has been putting itself last for too long.

  1. Foot soak and exfoliationWarm and aromatic.
  2. Foot reflexologyOur Ayurvedic ritual.
  3. Facial and Signature massageOmVeda Skin Renewal, with marma point therapy and Indian head massage.
  4. Sound healingA session before the last part.
  5. ShirodharaThen Ayurvedic herbal tea before you head home.

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.

Marye has created a true sanctuary. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I felt completely enveloped in a sense of peace. Marye radiates a genuine, warm and nurturing energy that is incredibly rare to find. She took the time to listen to exactly what my body and mind needed, tailoring the experience with such profound care and kindness. During the treatment, I felt completely safe to let go and deeply rest. If you are looking for a place to heal, unwind, and feel genuinely nurtured from head to toe, this is it. I cannot wait to return.

I attended the Women's Embodiment Retreat at Hepburn Springs. It was a beautiful peaceful setting. Mayre has a warm, generous, nurturing and healing spirit, as does her team that assist her, and makes the whole weekend flow effortlessly. A beautiful balance of yoga, meditation, life lesson wisdom and different workshops to try eg drumming and shigong, hammam experience, massages on offer, hot tub and cold plunge, a firepit circle at night, delicious food. This is a soul nourishing retreat, no pressure, welcoming, with other like minded women sharing a weekend together, looking for sustenance to continue with our busy lives. A weekend of self care. All I had to do was show up. Mayre took care of the rest. Highly recommended.

I 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!

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.

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

We 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.
