After an extensive international sales career in  Silicon Valley, Maéva Braxton pivoted  in 2001 to address her desire of being more available for her young children, as well as becoming a massage therapist. Now a seasoned professional, she has been practicing massage for 25 years (as of August 2026). Her education includes  a total of 1200+ hours of trainings from Palo Alto, Cupertino, CA, and most recently, through  New School of Massage Bodywork & Healing in Chicago. 

Although she is trained in Swedish, Sports and Clinical Deep Tissue Massage, her specialty is the highly effective Trigger Point Therapy.

Maeva’s massage experience includes a 3-year partnership with a chiropractor's office based  in Mountain View Ca, along with  two separate 3-year contracts at both Apple Inc. and FileMaker. She has maintained a prosperous independent practice since 2005 in Silicon Valley,  Chicago,  a brief stint in Delaware and is now happily transplanted in beautiful Evanston Illinois. In her off time she enjoys swimming, riding her bike and working towards her goal of being a distance cyclist and bike packer.
