Maria Buckler is a licensed massage therapist who offers compassionate, body-centered care rooted in the belief that true healing happens when we reconnect with the body’s innate wisdom, natural rhythms, and connection to the earth. Her work is gentle, intentional, and deeply personalized—supporting clients through restoration, recovery, and long-term wellness.

Maria’s path into massage therapy was shaped by her own healing journey. A transformative experience receiving lymphatic drainage massage during her fertility process inspired her to pursue this work professionally. Today, Maria specializes in lymphatic drainage massage and integrates principles of Ayurveda to provide holistic, nurturing support tailored to each client’s unique needs.

Her lymphatic work is especially beneficial for clients managing edema, post-surgical recovery, scar healing, and pre- and post-operative care, including mastectomy support. Maria is known for her calming, intuitive presence and her ability to create a safe, supportive environment where the body can soften and heal at its own pace.

Maria brings a lifelong dedication to learning and embodied wellness into her practice. Originally from Southern California, she has lived in Hawaii and Idaho before settling in Bend. She continues to deepen her education, including spending a month in Turkey studying the foundations of Ayurvedic medicine.

Beyond the treatment room, Maria volunteers at women’s gatherings such as the Northern California Women’s Herbal Symposium and Spirit Weavers Gathering, where she offers womb care and breast health education. She practices what she teaches through daily self-care rituals including oil pulling, tongue scraping, dry brushing, and crafting her own herbal tinctures, salves, and oils.

An avid outdoorswoman, Maria enjoys paddling, swimming, hiking, and road-tripping with her family and beloved dogs. Her warmth, presence, and commitment to holistic healing are felt in every session she offers.
