Marma Holistic is a one-practitioner studio in Suite 430 at 1001 SE Water Avenue, on a site between the river and the train tracks. Visits are by appointment only, Tuesday through Saturday from 11am to 7pm. Clients can park on Water Avenue or nearby streets, or use the paid visitor parking in the center of the building lot across from the main entrance, where payment is made at the kiosk. Trains sometimes pass and can briefly block the most direct route, so it helps to allow extra time.
This studio approaches skin care as one piece of overall wellbeing, linking the skin to rest, movement, sensation and human connection. Nicole's work draws on therapeutic touch and Ayurvedic principles, and includes facial massage with a sculpting focus, buccal work, marma point therapy, plant-based skincare products and restorative practices. Treatments are tailored to each client instead of following a set formula. The goal is healthy skin rather than anti-aging.
The core facials are the New Client Facial, a 90-minute visit that opens with a consultation and skin analysis and ends with personalized home-care suggestions, and the Holistic Facial, a customized botanical facial built on massage, manual lymphatic drainage and marma point therapy. The Sculpting Buccal Facial is a massage-based treatment that adds intraoral buccal massage to sculptural facial work. The business says it uses a NEOLIFTING sequence meant to engage all 43 facial muscles, and client reviews on the site describe the Holistic Facial as restorative and the Sculpting Buccal Facial as lifting. Kansa wand, facial cupping, gua sha and LED light therapy can be added to the Sculpting Buccal Facial, and the LYMA Cold Laser can be added to a facial for about 15 minutes.
Ayurvedic work is offered as a 75-minute consultation covering intake, a dosha assessment and a review of skin, digestion, sleep, stress and lifestyle, followed by a personalized plan. A 45-minute follow-up is recommended four to six weeks later. The eight-week Ayurvedic Skin Journey pairs an initial consultation with four 90-minute Holistic Facials and adds email support between sessions, priority booking, expanded PDF materials and 5% off retail skincare and ritual tools.
Facial treatments are personalized to each client's skin, and facials are typically recommended every four to six weeks as a starting point.
