The therapist

I'm Maya. I work slowly,
and I work for you.

I've been a certified massage therapist for over seven years. My practice is mobile — I bring a clean portable table, warmed oils and quiet music to your home, residence or hotel suite.

Sessions are unhurried. I'd rather give one full hour to one person than rush through three. Book in advance and tell me what your body is asking for that day; we'll shape the rest in the room.

The practice

Seven hands, one for every body.

Each session is shaped to the day you've had. Choose a starting point — we'll adjust pressure, pace and oils once we begin.

  1. 01

    Swedish

    Long, flowing strokes at light to medium pressure. The classical entry point — daily tension, eased.

    60 / 90 min
  2. 02

    Deep Tissue

    Slow, sustained pressure on knots and chronically tight bands. For bodies that are holding too much.

    60 / 90 min
  3. 03

    Aromatherapy Oil

    Warmed essential oils, scent-led. Quiet for the mind, open for the breath. A nervous-system reset.

    75 / 90 min
  4. 04

    Lymphatic Drainage

    Soft, rhythmic strokes that move fluid along its proper paths. Light pressure, deep effect.

    60 min
  5. 05

    Sport

    Targeted work for active bodies. Recovery after training, mobility before. Specific, never rushed.

    60 / 90 min
  6. 06

    Classical

    A complete full-body treatment in the European tradition. Time-tested, properly trained, always thorough.

    90 min
  7. 07

    Relax

    No agenda. Gentle, generous, and as quiet as you need it to be. The session for nights that ask for it.

    60 / 90 min

Why Maya

The kind of session
you don't have to explain.

In your space

Home, residence, hotel suite. A clean portable table, warm oils and music — brought to you, set up in minutes.

Properly trained

A certified massage therapist with seven years of professional practice — not a freelance directory, not a placeholder.

Discreet & private

Appointment-only. No reception desk, no waiting room, no questions you'd rather not answer. Just the work.

Both sides, same care

European and Anatolian Istanbul. Same evening if it's open, scheduled if it's not — you'll always hear back personally.

How an evening unfolds

Four quiet steps,
nothing rushed.

  1. i.

    Arrival

    I arrive at your address with a portable table, oils warmed and a small basket of essentials. No fuss, no entourage.

  2. ii.

    Setup

    A few unhurried minutes. Lights low, music chosen by you, towels laid out. You change in your own time.

  3. iii.

    The session

    Sixty, seventy-five or ninety minutes — we begin where your body asks, and I follow. Speak or stay quiet, your choice.

  4. iv.

    Afterward

    A glass of water, a moment to come back to yourself. I pack down quietly and leave you to the rest of the night.

Massage isn't a luxury. It's how a body remembers what rest feels like.
