About Me
I fell in love with massage therapy in 2018 and started a year long certification program. At the same time, I trained in Reiki, which I incorporate into my massages. I used my first job as a masseuse to hone my skills while working for a massage chain. In 2020, I launched Mindful Massage Studio, and more than five years into this journey, I can say with certainty that this is what I am meant to do.
Fast forward several years to my pregnancy with my second son—I was injured during my 3rd trimester and realized there weren’t nearly enough talented prenatal massage therapists. Once he was born, I felt called to pivot to support the moms in my community and specialize in prenatal and postpartum care.
While prenatal massage is my specialty, I'm passionate about all types of massage including therapeutic, deep tissue, and Swedish, and continue to offer my services to every(body). Since starting my healing arts career, my husband watched me fall in love with my work and decided to also enter the world of massage therapy. We are thrilled to be able to offer couples massages together.
I am proud to share that Mindful Massage Studio has been a finalist for the Best of Bucks in 2023 and a finalist for Best of Montco in 2024. We are also honored to be a Bucks County Parent LOVE award winner in 2024.

What Clients Are Saying…
“I have never been more relaxed, comfortable, and more in tune with a massage therapist ever!! Marlina was so easy to get along with, guided me in finding the right things for my body and always making sure I felt comfortable. My relaxation after coming out from massages with Marlina is unmatched. 90 minute massages are now all I will ever do with her! Enjoy every minute and you will never regret them.” - Katherine
“The body knows what it requires. Listen to it, not the cravings of the mind, but the needs of the body. Let it guide you into well-being.” - Yung Pueblo
