Marcia's

Bio

Marcia has built a career rooted in excellence, discretion, and a deep commitment to transformative skin health. A trusted esthetician and massage therapist to Hollywood’s elite, world-renowned athletes, Fortune 500 executives, and high-profile figures, her expertise has taken her from luxury spas in Beverly Hills to exclusive in-home treatments worldwide.

 

In 2023, she was entrusted with curating and operating a private esthetician suite aboard one of the world’s most prestigious superyachts, traveling internationally to deliver bespoke skincare treatments to an elite clientele. Whether caring for clients in a celebrity’s private residence, aboard a yacht, or within her serene Sherman Oaks clinic, she brings the same intuitive presence, expert technique, and unwavering discretion to every session.

 

Born in Brazil, Marcia’s journey is one of resilience and determination, shaping her into the healer she is today. Her passion for skincare, wellness, and the healing power of touch led her to a career that seamlessly blends advanced skin science with holistic therapies—a signature experience her clients say they can feel the moment her hands meet their skin. With over 16 years of experience, she honed her craft as the lead therapist and esthetician at the prestigious Four Seasons Spa in Beverly Hills, designing bespoke treatments for Los Angeles’ most discerning clientele.

 

A lifelong learner, Marcia has pursued extensive advanced training to deepen her understanding of the body, energy, and skin connection. She is a Certified Lymphedema Therapist, trained at the esteemed Norton School of Lymphatic Therapy, where she mastered Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage techniques. She is also a Level 2 Reiki Usui Practitioner, having traveled to Uenohara, Yamanashi, Japan—Reiki’s birthplace—to study under the highly respected Reiki Master Leiya (Emmanuelle Matsumura). Her ability to merge clinical expertise with energy healing makes her treatments not only results-driven but profoundly restorative.

 

In 2020, Marcia founded Transcendence Spa, offering highly personalized in-home services to her VIP clients and traveling globally to bring skincare to those who sought her healing touch. Now, with the launch of Transcendence Skin, she brings her signature blend of science, soul, and intuitive healing to a tranquil space in Sherman Oaks.

 

Marcia’s treatments are more than skincare—they are an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and honor your skin’s story. Every session is a journey into self-care, self-knowledge, and deep renewal. Clients leave not just glowing, but feeling refreshed, restored, and inspired to care for themselves with love and intention.

Get To Know Me

Beyond the treatment room, I'm a proud wife of 10 years and mom to two wonderful daughters and two adorable cats. My life is a blend of family, passion, and purpose, and I believe that my role as a mother and a healer are deeply connected—nurturing both my family and my clients comes from the same place of love.

​

I'm passionate about travel and holistic wellness, always seeking ways to deepen my understanding of healing practices. My journey led me to study Reiki in Japan, where I connected with the roots of energy healing, and to Rishikesh, India, where I immersed myself in yoga and breathwork. These experiences have profoundly shaped my approach to restoration, balance, and the mind-body connection—elements woven into my treatments to help clients feel truly renewed.

​

Outside of work, I find joy in staying active, spending time in nature, and embracing simple moments of self-care—a cup of herbal tea or a matcha latte, a grounding meditation, and a little Brazilian music in the background.

​

For me, skincare is not vanity—it's a form of self-respect and self-connection. That's the philosophy behind every treatment I offer at Transcendence Skin—helping you feel and look your besst, inside and out.

 Step Into Marcia’s Self-Care Rituals:
Nourish from Within, Glow from Without.

  • Woman with closed eyes basks in sunlight, against a white and gray background. Her expression is calm, with short, damp hair.

    Meditation is my go-to. It's like a mental reset button that helps me focus and set intentions for the day ahead. I usually meditate in a cozy spot with a candle burning.

  • Spa setting with a person relaxing in the background, focus on a small bottle of oil, dried flower, and brown bowl with salts

    It depends on my mood. If I need to unwind, lavender is my ultimate choice—it feels like a warm hug. But when I’m seeking an energy boost, eucalyptus is my pick—it’s so invigorating, especially during a morning shower.

  • Hand with white nails gently touching a shoulder. Skin appears hydrated, with a warm, neutral background, evoking a calm, soo

    A mineral bath every day, hands down! There’s something magical about soaking while listening to soft music or reading a book—it’s not just my escape but also where my creativity flows best. Water has a way of inspiring my thoughts and sparking new ideas.

  • Hand pouring lemonade into two glasses on a wooden board, surrounded by whole and halved lemons. Dark background. Refreshing

    Lemon-infused warm water on an empty stomach every morning is my ritual. It feels cleansing and wakes me up gently—plus, it’s my grandma’s old tip for glowing skin.

  • Clear ocean waves gently roll onto the sandy shore under a bright, serene sky, with light reflections creating a peaceful sce

    Ocean waves are my happy place. They remind me of family vacations and bring a sense of calm, like being wrapped in nature's lullaby.

  • Person in a suit meditates outdoors, cross-legged with hands in mudra gesture, holding a white paper tube. Background is blur

    Honestly, both are amazing in their own way. I love yin yoga for releasing the day’s tension, and I deeply value the practice of gratitude journaling—it’s such a grounding habit. While I don’t do both every night, I turn to whichever feels right in the moment for a perfect wind-down.

  • A smoothie bowl with banana slices, blueberries, granola, and pomegranate on a wooden table. Bowls of blueberries, honey, and

    Acai bowls, always! Topped with granola, fresh berries, and a drizzle of honey, they bring me right back to sunny beach days and the warm oceans of my home country, Brazil.

  • Woman with tattoos relaxes in sunlight, eyes closed, leaning on a white surface. Wears a ribbed top and jewelry, serene

    Why choose just one?
    To me, a spa experience should feel like a journey—not a single stop. A massage followed by a facial is the kind of indulgence that leaves you feeling truly renewed. That’s why I created The Dream Treatment: a seamless blend of both, woven together for deep restoration and effortless relaxation.

  • Woman with curly hair looks thoughtfully to the side against a soft, light background. Warm tones and serene mood.

    I love starting with guided meditation to help me focus, then letting it flow into silent reflection. It’s a powerful combination that leaves me feeling grounded.

  • Closed eye adorned with small yellow flowers on eyelid, soft expression, light freckles visible, against a neutral background

    This is a tough choice since both offer unique benefits, but with my dry skin, I’d have to pick nourishing facial oil. It seals in moisture perfectly, leaving my complexion soft, smooth, and naturally radiant.
