“Having journeyed through various beauty treatments, the encounter with Mardi’s Ascend sound healing was an entirely new experience. The journey begins with a soothing conversation, enveloped by an ambience of serenity and warmth. What unfolds is beyond anticipation—Mardi guides you through a seamless fusion of sound therapy, singing, and celestial music. It’s an amazing treatment. Mardi customises it for each client and it’s very different to anything that’s out there.”
– Kirstie Clements, former Editor-In-Chief of Vogue, accomplished author, journalist, and speaker
“From the very first time I entered this space I knew I had ventured to something sacred. There is of course it’s simple beauty, however the slow energy transcends normal everyday life. I have visited spas in 6 countries, this experience is sublime. Don’t expect anything other than the extraordinary. On every level, you shall be touched.”
– Belinda Jane Hunt
“What Mardi and her team create then curate for each client is an extraordinary experience. Whether you are checking into Chakana’s sanctuary for a mini facial or a multi-hour treatment there is a consistent depth to the relaxation and nurturing that ensures restoration and rejuvenation. The recent addition of Mardi’s musical gifts to certain treatments has set a new benchmark for spa experiences. The music takes a nurtured body and mind, breaks your heart open, then supports and uplifts your spirit. I found tears just poured down my cheeks. An unexpected, soulful and memorable experience that is hard to put into words. It’s a once in a lifetime. Unless you’re lucky enough to live in Avalon.”
– Jessica Robertson
“Chakana for me is a place that allows me to feel completely nurtured through stillness, touch, sound and smell. A space to really let go, be open, stay open, be vulnerable and be looked after. Being a mum of two young kids, I often forget that I need to be taken care of as well and not just be the carer all the time. I get that gift from Chakana every time. Leaving there nurtured, soft and in my feminine is priceless.”
– Caroline Walsh
“When you step into Chakana you are immersed in an environment of calm, relaxation and rejuvenation. I have been a regular client since Mardi and her team opened their doors in 2018. Chakana is a place where I come to get some peace from the world, where for a few hours each month I am made to feel nurtured and cared for, I can’t thank Mardi and her team enough for providing a wonderful space for me to do that. If I had to sum up Chakana in one word – divine.”
– Broni Cooper
“What a blissful experience. Mardi is not only a gifted songstress, but also holds space and ceremony like no one else I have experienced. What a gift she is to our community. I will be back again, with friends.”
– Jessica Bialek, Sound Bath client
