“I have had the pleasure of working with Makia for the last eight months. Of all massage therapists I have worked with during my four years as a Chiropractor, Makia has been the most caring, professional and enthusiastic one. Makia ́s one-to-one professional skills are beyond exceptional and all of our common patients have expressed her competency and are extremely pleased with their care from her. Makia has an outstanding interest on continuing to educate herself to grow her knowledge to better support her clients”

“I call her a muscular whisperer :). Makia has excellent energy and very sensitive hands. She is very good at noticing the troubled areas, and she is perfectly skilled at manipulating your soft tissues to get rid of all the tension and knots in the muscles, tendons, and ligaments. I have many old sports-related injuries, and she does magic with her hands. I always feel like a newborn after her sessions.”

“This was such a gorgeous experience from start to finish. Makia offers such a beautiful space, you can feel her dedication to her work and the expertise she brings to her practice from the moment you walk in the door. A really fabulous treat for my body! Would reccomend to every-body!”

“Makia, you know the body so well! I felt so safe when you worked on my belly and chest. After years of endometriosis and digestive pain, having anyone touch my belly felt terrifying, but it was so easy and safe to do with you. It was truly a magical experience and I can’t wait for my next session.”

“The BEST bodywork I have ever received and I don't say this lightly. Makia is an exceptional bodyworker and practitioner. Her deep rooted knowledge and sensitivity of the body and tissues is unparalleled.”

“Sex has never been an easy one, but Makia instantly made me feel so comfortable and safe. The sessions felt more like a causual conversation than a therapy session. She gave me tools to use at home and a safe place to share my desires and fears. A very rare thing as a man. My relationship to my erotic self is still a very complicated one, but with Makia’s support is becoming more joyful and natural. Thanks a million!"

“The best massage in Dublin. I have tried almost every massage centre in Dublin City Centre and the surrounding areas. So when I say Makia's massage was THE BEST, I mean it. She did exactly what I needed, was communicative and kind. Her diverse education combined with her wisdom of the body is incredible - you will know it when you feel it. I've booked in again for two weeks from now.”

“I had the gift of working with Makia weekly during my three-month residency in Dublin. As a self professed wellness junkie, I’ve explored many modalities over the years, and Makia was absolutely amongst the most experienced and specialized somatic bodyworkers I’ve ever experienced. Her tactile skills and deep understanding of physiology are truly elite, and she is an absolute joy to spend time with. Sessions felt like visiting with a friend. I can’t wait to come back.”

“There is not one thing you couldn’t ask Makia about your yoni, your sexuality and the many of ways you can experience pleasure. She is right there with you, ready to answer and she is the embodiment of what she teaches.”

“Sessions with Makia are always so restorative and deep. Her calm and grounding energy in combination with her excellent communication and depth of knowledge and experience makes me feel at total ease and in full trust, which is something that's hard for me to find in bodyworkers.”

“I have high standards when it comes to bodywork. Countless times I've laid on a massage table optimistic that I have found a therapist that possesses the rare qualities which enable me to trust and surrender into their hands, only to leave feeling disappointed and disgruntled. Quite the opposite occurs with Makia. Not only does she hold an impecable, grounded space, she is a master of touch and so attentively attuned to working with the different layers involved in bodywork that the experience was uniquely magical, relaxing, energising and balancing. I could not recommend her more.“

“I walked out of the clinic floating on cloud nine! Makia's was the most amazing massage and bodywork treatment I've ever received. I struggle with chronic migraines and jaw pain from grinding at night. Her jaw, face and scalp work, OMG just incredible. 90 minutes flew by. Thanks a million!"

“We learned new qualities of touch and how to use sensory impliments to help our intimacy. My wife and I now have more tools and a whole other way to be intimate together. With your playfulness, warmth and the natural candor of your sessions we immediately felt at ease and found ways to unlock new pleasure in our 7 year marriage.”

“Thank you for all these session. Your skill and calming presence made it a truly superb experience, and I’m already looking forward to our next appointment! I am really grateful to you for the all the work that you have done soo far.”

“I am a Chiropractor and was on vacay in Dublin with a group of friends from San Diego. I found Makia in my first search for a massage. All of the luggage, sitting on planes, trains and sleeping on awful mattresses really did a number on my back. She did some of the best work that I have ever had, I was able to walk all over Dublin without pain for the remainder of my travels. Highly recommended. It was great to see another friendly Californian in a foreign country.”

“I had a incredible session with Makia. I love that she is giving it as a form of therapy, a source of closeness and human connection that has been forgotten in our society. We’ve forgotten that connection is a real need of people. I hope to come back for more.”

“Makia always makes me feel welcome and at ease. She has such a natural and down to earth way about her when it comes to discussing anything from body parts to sexuality. There’s not one single moment that I felt awkward during my sessions.”

“I have been in severe pain for the last seven years after a serious accident. I tried every approach without success, just resigning myself to a life of chronic back and hip pain. After my first session with Makia I was pain free for nearly 3 weeks. I've been seeking her fortnightly for the past six months and have been mostly pain free. It doesn't hurt that she's great craic, the laughter makes the deep tissue work more tolerable. I have my life back thanks to her magical hands and kind heart.”

“I’ve been working with Makia for years now. She incorporates a variety of different modalities based on what my body needs. She listens so carefully, uses her intuition & years of knowledge to create a unique experience in each session I’ve had. Since we been working together for a few years now, she really knows exactly what my body needs. I wish I had learned earlier in life just how important self-care is. So I definitely keep up my massages with Makia on a regular basis. She is not just a great massage therapist, but a healing presence.”

“From walking in earlier this morning I felt a sense of well-being. Makia really listened to me on areas I’d like particular focus and it was without doubt the best set of treatments I’ve ever had. I have re-booked for 6 weeks time. Thank you so much!”

“Thank you so much, Makia. I enjoyed working with you, you are a wonderful, giving, intuitive person. I feel so centred & relaxed in the following days after receiving your incredible massages. ​Keith also echos this!”

“Both an effective and deeply relaxing massage. Makia also worked on my scar tissue therapeutically which I have not experienced before in massage. Looking forward to my next visit!”

“Makia! You’ve completely changed my life and my relationship with my body & embodiment. You are the most wise and gifted bodyworker I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. I feel like I have a new body. I tell everyone I know you're the best massage treatment in Dublin.”

"First time with Makia yesterday for chronic TMJ attacks and migraine headaches. She was excellent. She even spent the time on areas of my back, chest and neck that had muscle knots. Her communication throughout was really good. Felt great afterwards and today is the first time in over 3 months that I've not had a headache. Incredible.

“I’m fascinated by how much I enjoy these sessions. I feel a great relief to be able to unburden myself. You are such a joy to talk to. My basic takeaway was how liberating it was to talk openly about how poor I’ve been for so long.”

“Makia is the most skilled and well attuned massage therapist I've ever been to. I just had an amazing treatment with her and will be back very soon. Thank you Makia”

“Makia's attention to detail and precision are outstanding. I will definitely be a regular now. As a very heavily muscled guy I've rarely gotten such tension relief in such a short period of time.”

“I booked TMJ & Migraine Massage with Makia for my friend suffering from tension headaches and it was the best massage she ever had! She felt great relief after. Thank you so much Makia!”
