Hello, my name is Mara van Hoek and since 2004 I have been working full-time as a masseuse. Before that, my life took place in the theater, I was trained as a dancer and toured for six years around the Netherlands with all kinds of productions.
If I had not started dancing, I would have become a physiotherapist. The retraining choice for massage was quickly made after an injury. As a sports masseuse and TouchPro® practitioner, I mainly give chair massages at companies and also I massage at Koan Float, a wonderful place to be priviliged working with heart and soul.
My basis lies with the sports and deep tissue massage. With strength and softness I’m making muscles supple again and am allowing the knots to melt. I also followed many courses in personal development and energy work, with which I give the physical massage extra form. I often combine techniques from classic massage, sports massage, deep tissue, trigger points, kinesiology, acupressure and reiki. My hands engage in conversation with your body and provide what is needed to bring about optimal relaxation.
I tailor each massage to specific wishes and bring in my experience, attention and dedication in our ‘meeting’. Bringing new balance, giving extra flow and releasing tension … for me as a masseuse it is always a special journey to be able to offer. Be welcome on the table!
