I was having a morning. You know one of THOSE mornings? The morning where, once you wake up you know the exact plan throughout the day until you actively start the day and nothing goes as planned? Before reaching Murielle, for my 9AM appointment, a series of unfortunate events happened (1) my phone screen shattered (2) my daughter reaches school on time, @8:20 however (3) I got to my sons school at 8:45am with not enough time to commit to my 9am appointment. A few years ago, my ex fiancé bought me a pair of BEBE heels, which I loved. One night while we were going out I was on 3 glasses of red wine, and clinging to his arm for support however I sprained my left foot. Months later we broke up. My foot has never felt better. When I finally arrived to Magic Journey Spa, i was Laaaaattte like capital 'L' late. Almost 30 mins late. Upon arriving, I was met with a bright soul who encouraged me to settle myself, by drinking warm ginger/herbal tea and by feeding me alkaline foods (grapes figs, nuts). The atmosphere was very warm and so I undressed, I showed Murielle my foot and requested her to focus on this area of my body the most. Soon after, I laid upon the table and alllllllll of these thoughts flooded me-- I remembered I needed to make an apple appointment to get my screen replaced, I needed to go to the garden, I needed to fix something for my husband, I needed to do so many things while still laying down on this table. I paused my body and released those thoughts once I felt cool hands touch my body. I felt my breath match the pace with the sounds of the music in the background. Murielle paid close attention to my needs, and I like the way she responded to my body. My favorite part was when she added the warm stones. While there, for my short time, I was able to completely think of only myself --which is difficult for a mother to do. I plan to schedule more time with her in the coming months. read more

Murielle is a miracle worker! I was in desperate need of a massage as my sudden back pains was interrupting my productivity. I couldn't breathe without feeling the pain! I called Murielle for a same day massage and within an hour she called me back! Her space is beyond beautiful and she is so inviting. There is simply nothing better than a wonderful massage to the sounds of healing affirmations. I was in heaven! The massage exceeded my expectation and worked out the pain in my back. Within 24 hours the pain was completely gone! Thank you Murielle for the excellent massage, the recommendations of items to buy, and for an hour very well spent. I will be back! read more

The first time I stepped into this atmosphere it was amazing, and completely different from the general massage places I have been to.... this experience was thee most beauitful.... I recommand it to everyone and for me it was definately worth it and I am sure i will be coming back again and again Thank You Murielle read more

And then ! ....the cherry on top is a massage that is so skillfully done and so thoughtful executed in a way that is attuned to your body's unique needs.There could be no experience that I more highly recommend then Magic Journey spa.What a blessing Murielle was to me and certainly our community. With all my heart thank you! It was a day well spent and a day I'll never forget . ~Elecktra read more

I wish I could give Murielle 10 stars. Murielle truly has a healing touch. After rescheduling on both of our parts yesterday I was finally able to receive some of Murielle's magic. She has a very warm and inviting presence. I picked up on that as soon as she opened the door. I have had massages before I have a right knee injury that causes that leg to have a lot of edema in pain and utilize massages as part of my PT. She took her time with me, she was very thorough and I was able to visibly notice the difference in size in my legs from having the fluid that caused the edema moved. I felt so good for the rest of the day I took her advice and got some sunshine as well as was able to ambulate and walk around without having as much pain as I usually have. I even scheduled an appointment with her for the next month. I'm going to do my best to make this a regular thing. I have never ever made an appointment in advance for anything. Not even for my regular doctor . I'm glad that I was able to find her services, she is not just a massage therapist she's a Therapeutic Touch healer. She really truly is gifted read more

Murielle was absolutely amazing! She was welcoming and I felt at peace once I entered! It was my husband's birthday and she was kind enough to have given us some flowers upon entering. She automatically brought smiles to our faces. I loved her energy! Her kind gestures did not stop there. She then brought us some delicious treats such as fresh strawberries, coconut, mango, nuts and dates. The aromas emanating through the air made me feel like I was in a garden. The colors in the surrounding were picturesque. The massage was just so endearing. She was able to find all my knots and just unwound them! My husband felt so relaxed and was just overall grateful that he was blessed with this experience! We will be back! read more

I don't leave reviews often but I felt compelled to do so here. My fiancé and I came for a couples massage are we were treated to a very special evening. When we walked into the space we were blown away! The environment had a great vibe. I felt truly relaxed. Murielle made us feel so comfortable and it felt like we'd known each other for years. Conversation was easy and never felt forced while she worked on us individually. She's got incredibly strong hands and I felt wonderful after we were done. I even took home some pointers after watching Murielle work on my partner. We left feeling so refreshed! Can't wait to come back! read more

Murielle is an amazing healer who puts her heart and soul into her work/life's purpose. Her space is like a tropical oasis in the concrete jungle, full of plants, beautiful things, crystals and lights. She puts love into all aspects of the experience for her clients and that is something you will never get at a corporate spa. Her massage is really connected, integrated and exactly the right pressure-no surprise "owie" moments but defiantly satisfyingly deep. She even serves tea and snacks and special healing water. So thankful I found this place and Murielle! read more

The owner is a kind caring woman I would feel comfortable recommending to friends and family.

Murielle is a Godsend!! I'm so happy I found this place. I was looking and researching for a good masseuse in Brooklyn, and thought i'd give Magic Journey Sanctuary a try. After checking out the site, I was very impressed with all of the many services offered, as well as the convenient bundles and packages available. When I called to inquire Murielle was very professional, patient, and answered all of my questions. Once I arrived my experience was even better! She is highly skilled and knowledgable about her craft and SO kind! I instantly felt comfortable. Not to mention, the atmosphere was beautiful- surrounded with bright green lush plants, an array of natural light, clean and embellished so tastefully. After my massage, I sat with Murielle for tea and fruit before heading home. I cant say how grateful I am to have found such an amazing local masseuse. I already booked another bundle of massages a month out. I highly recommend! read more

Murielle is awesome! Went to her for a message a treat i gave myself for my birthday, and it was the best decision ever. She was kind, con passionate and very intelligent. She makes you feel welcome and safe! She also made a really good meal for me! Please see her you won't regret it. read more

I've had a lot of bodywork and she's the best I've ever had. Perfect flow, great tempo, knows when to get deep and when to back off, very knowledgeable of the muscular system and the modalities for great results. She's the total package for bodywork, health, diet and relaxation. Can't wait for the next session! read more

This was the best massage I have ever had. Murielle is gifted and healing. I loved my massage and need to make this a regular part of my health routine. She has wisdom beyond her years. read more

I was on a search for postop lymphatic drainage massage after my Lipo and Bbl surgery. Trying to find one was the hardest thing during covid. I came across this business and picked up the phone. There was an instant connection with Muriel. I decided to go with it and it was the best decision ever. She knows exactly what she's doing and will release all that tension your body is enduring. Muriel is a very pleasant and peaceful person to be around. Thank you again! read more

Murielle is angelic. I agree with the other reviewers. I didn't expect the experience to be so perfect, from the feel of the spa, to the attention of the masseuse. What I received was a high caliber, rejuvenating massage of extremely high quality. I immediately felt at home. The experience was warm and intimate from the start. I was ensured that I was comfortable before the bodywork. I truly felt that I was seeing a top notch, wonderful holistic professional. After the massage, I was as relaxed as from any other. All of the tension from my body was released. I was not rushed out. If you are looking for a cheap and quick massage, from a non-professional, do not go here. Otherwise, you will not make a mistake. You will be a returning customer. read more

This place is absolutely genius! I will be back over and over again! I got the cupping 60 minute massage and it totally fixed the severe neck pain I've been experiencing for weeks. read more

Magic Journey Sanctuary has given Me the Most Amazing Experience ! I had a Liposuction 360 in Florida In October of 2021. I was Advised by My Surgeon to get a Lymphatic Drainage Therapist Asap. I Googled Murielle Who's Nickname is Mimi. She Discussed Packages with Me and I Secured My Appointment Via the Phone. Let Me tell You I was Scared and Sore and Suffering from Fibrosis, which is a painful retention of fluids that has to be massaged out and placed into an appropriate Faja Immediately. Mimi is the Quintessential Professional who knows how to Guide, Nurture and is Essentially the "Queen of Compression". Her Office is Warm and Inviting and a Boon to the Soul. I was Lost and Mimi literally brought Me back to Life by basically walking Me through the Different Treatments and Tinctures I would Require to help Me Drain Fluids Faster and get that "Snatch ". Magic Journey Sanctuary is Aptly Named. It Truly is a Magical Journey from being Scared, Swollen and in Pain to being the Fierce Diva I am Today. All Due to Mimi's Hands which are Golden I Tell You !! I Highly Recommend that You Go to Magic Journey Sanctuary and You too will be as Thrilled and Happy as I was to Receive the Magic which is Mimi...XOXO read more

Murielle was amazing! I went based on her reviews and she was even better. Magical space, magical person. I would recommend highly and also hope to go back soon. read more

Was in desperate need of a real massage by someone with legitimate skills and an intimate knowledge of the body. Was so tired of the dirty , seedy places that advertised. Read the reviews and decided to give it a try. Boy, were the reviews on point and was the service amazing! Therapeutic, with care and concern. Perfect amount of pressure and a warm caring thoughtful individual. Gives you an entirely different perspective on what a proper massage consists of and how much of a difference a true professional can make ! A must! read more

I went to see her this afternoon,I enjoy Massages.by far this is the best i ever had.she is warm, make relax,one hr feels so short.I will be back soon. i highly recommended read more

I had a truly magical experience at the Magic Journey Spa. I was referred by a friend of mine, who also bought me a gift package- the Chill out session package. I didn't know what to expect but this experience definitely exceeded my expectations. I was greeted by Mimi, whom I could tell immediately was such a fun and beautiful person. She greeted me warmly as I entered the space. I love the way the space was decorated and the ambiance (including the music) which already put me in relaxed mode. The first part we basically just spent "chillin" and talking about all kinds of things. Surprisingly I felt very comfortable to talk and share things with her. She has this special vibe that makes you feel loved and welcomed. Plus, she's very funny! She offered me a drink - I don't quite remember the name, but it contained natural herbs and it was delicious. The massage part included regular massage, hot stones and warm towels. In one word - AMAZING! I've had many massages in my life and they were mostly okay, but I always felt like something was missing. Not this time. First of all, Mimi was so attentive and intuitive. I felt like she was literally "reading" my body and my energies. I felt like it was a combination of a physical/medical massage mixed with some energy work. Her touch was strong and firm, but not painful, yet very soft and flowing, if it makes any sense. I tried not to fall asleep because I wanted to be aware of everything she does. I managed to kind of stay awake, but I was definitely "in the zone". When the massage ended, I felt super relaxed, in heaven. One thing I really liked is that she didn't rush me off the table, like most places do. She told me I could just relax and take my time until I got up. And when I did, she assisted me and waited for me with something to drink. Afterwards, I got dressed and we still chatted some more. I shared my experience and gratitude with her. Bottom line- I am definitely coming back! It was a beautiful experience and I couldn't ask for more. Thank you Mimi! read more

If money is an issue, get it. Murielle is a beautiful heart and soul. The experience is wonderful, the atmosphere of her workplace is so light and highly energetic. The intention to heal is there and she does! She's absolutely amazing. Thank you, Murielle!! read more

The Magic Journey Spa is definitely a majestical experience! The chill and relax package is the best! She's excellent at what she does, those hands of hers is reflexology at its finest! The ambiance, her energy and the service is just oh so magical. From the minute I stepped in the energy made me feel as if I was in a whole new place. It and SHE lived up to its name! read more

Magic Post Op - Who knew such hands as magical as hers can exist on a person? Such an experience that I will do over and over again! - Reiki Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I run ultramarathons, but rarely practice any self care. After running a 60k this past Saturday, the Brooklyn Marathon on Sunday, and then trying to race a 5-miler on Thanksgiving I decided to treat myself to a massage. I arrived at the appointed time and found a pleasant studio in a top floor apartment. There was relaxing music and some aromatherapy on hand. Murielle made everything super comfortable and had me explain what I wanted worked on. She paid special attention to my tight hamstrings and sore shoulders as requested, and had an excellent, friendly demeanor the whole time. The hot stone massage was especially heavenly. I would highly recommend her services to any other athlete needing a little self care. read more

After a week of no sleep because of a worsening back pain, I decided it's time to do something. I knew I needed something more than the typical $30 chinese rub disguised as a "massage", so I began my search. I came across Magic Journey Spa and decided to book an hour massage. I was greeted by Mimi and welcomed into her beautiful home full of light and amazing energy. I sipped on tea as we had a chat about my problem areas and she went straight to work. I could feel the pain leave my body as she kneaded the stubborn knots. This was truly a FULL BODY MASSAGE as she covered and gave attention to every single inch of my body; it was pure heaven for my tired, achy body. She welcomed me to stay to finish my tea and snack on some delicious healthy treats as we had a chat about lifestyle changes. Visiting Magic Journey Spa was an amazing experience and I'll be incorporating Mimi's services into my "self care". Do yourself a favor you won't regret! read more

This whole experience was unreal! Murielle's place genuinely felt like going through a portal to somewhere out of the city, somewhere calm and alive and rejuvenating, full of plants and an amazing scent. The environment was so peaceful, and before the massage Murielle spent time talking with me about difficult things in my life over tea, helping me feel more at peace. The massage was one of the best I've ever had - strong, but not painful. I'll be recommending Magic Journey Spa to everyone who needs a massage or just a unique, perspective-shifting experience! read more

I had a appoinment on Dec. 31, 2018. As soon as stepped into the door, I noticed that I'd entered an oasis of peace and tranquility. I exhaled, let my shoulders down and melted into the chair while waiting for Murielle to finish the client before me. It was the beginning of a wonderful diversion from the world outside while being completely taken care of. My massage was nurturing and supportive of working out the stress and tension that I'd been carrying. Murielle is a gentle and strong practitioner whose loving energy overflows onto her "work". I feel grateful to be the recipient of her gifts. I will definitely return and share her with other friends. read more

I just left my second treatment with Mimi. What an amazing experience. From the minute I walked into her oasis in Brooklyn, I was immediately greeted by this warm inviting peaceful energy. Her skillful hands are nothing short of magic. I feel rejuvenated both physically and mentally. I am already looking forward to my next session. I happen to live in Brooklyn but she's worth the trip from anywhere. read more

this is a really special person and space that i can't recommend highly enough. both of my experiences with mimi have been so beautiful and healing. the energy of her space and her work are of the highest frequency. for specificity, the massages i gotten from her were excellent. she's attentive and gentle but firm. i felt incredibly relaxed and invigorated afterward and that feeling was expanded by the fruit and tea and water she shared before and after. also the hammock is a major highlight--if you go in a pair you can relax there and get in tune while your friend or partner has their turn. final note, everything is clean and nice and high quality--this experience would be a bargain at twice the price. read more

Murielle is an amazing massage therapist! Hands down, the best massage that I have ever experienced (including high end establishments). I had my second (hot stone) massage work Murielle in 3 weeks). The space is tranquil and modest. She also recommended specific stretches for me to do on my own. It has helped alleviate some of the chronic low back issues that I experience on a daily basis. For me it this was much more than a massage...it was a truly was a retreat and serene experience. read more

What a bright shining human being! Murielle is very sweet and the energy in her place is just amazing! I went to see her for my severe neck pain and she was able to help me immediately. I truly recommend her. Just go there and experience the magic happening! read more

The first thing I noticed when I walked into the space, is the good air and good energy. Murielle has a touch that will take you into another dimension, it is an experience I would Highly recommend to anyone seeking stress free and balance. The view and experience of this place is one that you cannot forget. read more

Words can't express how grateful I am to have met Murielle. I randomly found her on Yelp as I was laying in bed one lazy saturday morning craving a Thai yoga massage and she was just a couple blocks away. I walked in and immediately felt comfortable in her space. The plants, music, scents and her view of Brooklyn is unlike anything I have ever seen, I did not even feel like I was in the US! She offered me some grapes and water and gave me one of the best massages and Thai massages I have ever received. She is intuitive and at times I would forget where I was as I started to move into different levels of relaxation and consciousness. Afterwards I felt extremely relaxed that I slowly got my stuff together and ate some more grapes. Murielle told me to take my time and we started talking and getting to know each other more. I ended up staying hours after my massage talking, eating, and sharing with a like-minded person. It was so special! It was hard to leave but it was time to go home before I ended up sleeping there because I was so relaxed! I will definitely be back and would HIGHLY recommend Murielle to anyone. read more

Where do I begin...I entered and was greeted warmly with a rose (Valentine's Day), strawberries, nuts, and tea. We sat together and talked about my specific challenges and needs regarding my physical and emotional well-being. She felt more like a friend than simply someone that would provide a much needed service. Murielle was informative and genuinely wanted to help and is invested in making her clients feel better. The massage, which I hesitate to call it that and mentioned this to her, was more like a healing experience. Her touch seemed guided by another realm. She knew where to go and how much pressure to apply. I feel better and lighter today. I will definitely be returning and doing my very best to start living a healthier lifestyle. She is worth the time and money because the service she provides is truly priceless. This is not just a "day at the spa." If you are ready and wiling to invest it could change your life. She is truly a healer. read more

O.M.G. I need 10 stars to be given to Murielle at Magic Journey Spa. I came to Murielle for a massage and walked away with so much more! Her intuition and advice was so spot-on. I hold a lot of my stress in my back and she worked each and every knot out. It was honestly the best full-body massage I have ever received in my life. Yes, I've been to Bliss...and yes, their ambiance is great. However, they hold NOTHING over Murielle and her gifts. I left feeling lighter and refreshed. Not only because of the awesome tea and organic foods/fruits, but because my spirit was literally uplifted. She's a God-send and you need to treat yourself to her services on a regular basis. I know I am. I deserve it. read more

I went to Magic Journey Spa for a Lymphatic Massage. Murielle used hot stone and cupping techniques. The massage was amazing!! I instantly felt much better. I highly recommend this place. My experience was great. Murielle is really nice and made sure that I was comfortable during the massage. read more

Hd a great experience.amazing place and healthy foods as well. Thnks murielle.

Going through the alphabet, I realized this... Jomo = 110+%, pure male goodness and intention Keisha = 1st Hot Stone (demo) ever L = skipped (I wonder why), and then came.... M = MURIELLE ZINSOU mmmm "Warming the soul through the sole" Using a corporation of multiple modalities, Murielle instinctively gets to all the points from feet to head. With the stones, she used the compression of heat while applying pressure, holding the space for greater healing. The experience was totally relaxing and I was energized to some Spring cleaning the next day. It really is a Magical Journey! read more

Really loved the place and the atmosphere Murielle built with the lighting, music, and relaxing feeling you get there with great aroma oil diffuser smells. Natural Himalayan salt crystal all around, which brought a calmness to the place, gradually it was a sense of tranquility and well being. The air was not stuffy nor was the sound of the street or around you to disturbing. Loved the alkaline water she gave me. As for the massage she was simply Amazing. she started the session with questions about me, pains, issues I may have or problem areas. I expressed that I was having alot of shoulder and feet pain from training martial arts and she helped relieve alot of those aches and pains. Murielle foot massage was simply put Crazy. Murielle would hit each and every knot I had. The hour or so felt so short but overall one of the best massages I've ever had. Its true what other reviewers say! The sense of calmness, relaxing & very peaceful environment as soon as you enter her studio. read more

Murielle is magical. I went to see her for the first time yesterday and I can sincerely say it was one of the best massages I've ever received. She is so intuitive and knows exactly what your body and spirit need. I have already recommended her to 4 people - my husband is booked to see her this week. I will definitely be coming back. read more
