About Maryanne

Located opposite beautiful Collaroy beach, Maryanne has transformed a former bank into a specialised Sydney retreat with a modern Asian flavour.

The day spa is Maryanne’s baby, the culmination of her background in psychology, natural therapies as well as market research combined with living in Asia for nine years.

Maryanne’s background is varied from psychology, marketing and advertising, to natural therapies and the spa/beauty/relaxation industy. She was a market research psychologist for many years, advising companies on their advertising and marketing based on research she designed and carried out.

Whilst in Asia for 9 years, Maryanne studied natural therapies including Ki therapies and Shiatsu in Japan, Hand Acupuncture, Reiki and massage in Korea, , Spiritual Healing in the UK as well as Reflexology and Aromatherapy at Nature Care College in Sydney. She particularly loved Aromatherapy as well as Meditation and Healing. She is also a trained counselor. She was involved in all kinds of event management and many voluntary positions, including working with disabled children and telephone counseling. On returning to Australia she completed 3 Diplomas begun whilst overseas-Aromatherapy, Remedial Massage and Healing.

Aroma ki is the materialization of a dream Maryanne has had for many years. A place that would uplift peoples’ lives and bring a sense of community with a focus on natural products, holistic treatments, natural therapies and caring. A haven to truly relax and revive in this stressful world.
