A private, peaceful space for therapeutic massage and intuitive healing — in the heart of Plettenberg Bay.
Julia is an internationally qualified massage therapist with two decades of practice. She trained in advanced Swedish, deep tissue, sports, lymphatic drainage, prenatal and craniosacral massage, and went on to specialise in Chi Nei Tsang abdominal release work and energetic healing modalities including Mekaba.
Her approach is therapeutic at its foundation — built on a deep understanding of the body's mechanics — but every session is shaped intuitively, in the room, around what is needed today. Pressure, technique and pacing are always yours to choose.
"Perhaps what you need most is one hour of nothing planned, nothing to attend, nothing to do — simply space to breathe, and to listen to your soul exhale."
The Meraki studio is a private treatment room set within a quiet residential space at Office 9, 42 Green Point Avenue, Plettenberg Bay. Soft natural light, warm linens, considered scent. Designed to feel like a sanctuary the moment you step inside — and to remain that way until you leave.
Off-street parking is available. Sessions are by appointment only — no walk-ins, no waiting room overlap with another client. Your time is your own.
Every first session begins with a brief conversation — about what brings you to the studio, what your body needs, what is and isn't comfortable. From there, the work unfolds in whatever direction serves you best.
Sessions are conducted under draped towels at all times. You set the pace, the pressure, and what is and isn't worked on. If something doesn't feel right, we adjust — there is never any pressure to keep going with something that isn't right for you.
Massage fees are payable at the end of your session via cash, EFT or card.
