Marilia Costa is a physiotherapist and specialist in Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Massage, combining nearly two decades of clinical experience with an intuitive understanding of the body’s energetic flow. Among many qualifications she is a Member of Australian Natural Therapists Association (ANTA).

Her professional journey began in 2006 at a renowned women’s hospital in São Paulo, Brazil, where she worked in post-surgical rehabilitation with patients recovering from mastectomy and breast cancer treatments. It was there that Marilia witnessed how healing extends far beyond the physical—touching the emotional and energetic dimensions of each person. This profound experience shaped her lifelong commitment to integrative healing, where science meets sensitivity.

After moving to Australia in 2009, Marilia continued to refine her craft, merging the precision of physiotherapy with the holistic depth of natural therapies.

Today, through Healing Hands by Marilia, she leads a dedicated team that embodies her unique and exclusive approach—treating every client with presence, intuition, and care. Each therapist is trained under Marilia’s guidance to see the body as a living system of flow, emotion, and energy—ensuring every session delivers not only visible results but also a sense of balance, vitality, and reconnection. Her signature Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage technique transcends aesthetics. It promotes detoxification, cellular renewal, and emotional release, guiding the body toward balance, vitality, and longevity.

In recent years, Marilia has expanded her mission by training and mentoring other professionals, sharing her method and philosophy through workshops and education programs. Her vision is to elevate the standard of wellbeing, creating a ripple effect of healing that reaches beyond her clinic and into the broader wellness community.

Beyond her clinical expertise, Marilia is a mother, entrepreneur, and eternal student of the body–mind connection. Her purpose is simple: to help people restore their natural rhythm and live with more presence, flow, and longevity.
