Martine has always been fascinated by the human body. Starting out as a Registered Nurse in Holland twelve years ago, Martine had just warmed up to her extensive study of the body, mind and spirit. While working as a nurse, she studied Psychology and Massage Therapy, earning herself a Bachelors degree in Psychology and a National Certification in Massage Therapy.
Since her National Certification in Holland eight years ago, Martine has been focusing on the art of massage therapy because this is where her true passion is. She worked several years as a massage therapist in Amsterdam, setting up a successful private practice, before moving to Los Angeles in 2005.
In Los Angeles, Martine felt like she had moved to massage paradise. She worked for several luxury mobile spas before starting her own mobile massage practice. Delivering expert massage services to clients and working with like-minded therapists in a positive and inspiring way is her number one goal. Martine and her team work with a broad variety of clients, from medical patients and children to professional athletes, musicians and A-list celebrities. Her home base is Los Angeles, but she is slowly expanding her services to New York.
After the birth of her children Martine also became interested in baby and child massage. She trained to become a Certified Infant Massage Instructor and has been teaching baby and child massage to parents since achieving her certification in 2005. She is currently in the process of writing a book about baby and child massage.
