Why Choose Mobile Massage in Malibu?
Privacy & Oceanfront Luxury Enjoy professional massage therapy in the privacy and comfort of your Malibu home. Whether you're in a beachfront estate, a canyon home, or a Point Dume property, I bring premium wellness services to you. Many Malibu clients appreciate the discretion and convenience of in-home sessions.
No PCH Traffic Skip the drive into town, the challenges of Pacific Coast Highway traffic, and the inconvenience of leaving your peaceful oceanside sanctuary. I bring everything needed for a professional massage session—table, linens, and music—directly to you.
Perfect for Active Coastal Living Malibu residents lead active lifestyles—surfing, hiking, mountain biking, paddleboarding, and beach yoga. I understand the physical demands of coastal living and can tailor sessions to address surf-related tension, hiking recovery, and athletic maintenance.
Exceptional Experience As a graduate of the National Holistic Institute who finished top of my class, and former lead therapist at Equinox Beverly Hills, I deliver the same caliber of service you'd expect from premium coastal wellness destinations—without the inconvenience.

What to Expect from Your Malibu Mobile Massage
Before Your Appointment I'll arrive 10-15 minutes early to set up quietly in your designated space. All you need is a bedroom, wellness room, outdoor covered patio, or any quiet area with approximately 8x8 feet of floor space. I bring everything else and respect the privacy and tranquility of your oceanfront home.
During Your Session Each session is fully customized. Whether you need intensive deep tissue work on your shoulders and neck, full-body myofascial release, or relaxing Swedish massage, I adapt to what your body needs that day. My approach is intuitive and holistic—not one-size-fits-all.
After Your Session I'll pack up quietly while you continue to relax. Many clients schedule regular weekly or monthly sessions to maintain their results, manage stress, and support their active coastal lifestyle.
