About Us


Where the Pacific Meets the Pulse of the Atlantic

A meeting of tides, traditions, and touch.

KRave Spa was born from touch—not just as a technique, but as truth. From the heartbeat of America to the spirit of South Africa, we are two souls walking a shared path—guided by ancestry, intention, and the sacred geometry of connection. As life partners, licensed massage therapists, and passionate healers, we created this space to be more than a studio. It is a sanctuary. A ceremony. A reclamation.

Here, the table becomes an altar. The oils, a ritual. The silence, a song.


Our Story


At KRave Spa, our story begins not just with massage—but with energy.

 

We are partners in life, healers, and alchemists of touch and scent.

MarQuis, with a mind shaped by psychology and a soul rooted in wonder, uses scent as a bridge—guiding mood, redirecting emotion, shifting the atmosphere of a single moment. With each inhalation, he crafts space for transformation, grounding his global training and travels into something tangible: a subtle note that calms; a floral breath that uplifts; a sacred blend that brings you back to yourself.

From South Africa, John brings a different gift—one that cannot be taught. Though he cannot detect unpleasant scents, he has a rare and beautiful gift: the ability to sense what feels good. With an unshakable dedication to people, to listening deeply, to communicating patiently and without judgment, John creates a presence that is as steady as it is comforting. He does not just work with aroma—he works with essence.

Together, we’ve wandered through ancient markets, modern cities, temples, and spas from Singapore to Spain—collecting not just techniques, but wisdom. We’ve touched the textures of different cultures, learned the rhythms of personalities, and studied the ways healing shows up across continents. And through it all, one truth stayed with us:

At KRave Spa, our story begins not just with massage—but with energy.

As soulmates, our kinetic bond became our mission. We married not just in love, but in purpose—Creating a sanctuary where scent, sensation, and spirit intertwine.

KRave Spa is a sacred container for transformation—a proud Black-owned space of masculine softness, fluid strength, and unapologetic self-honoring. Here, you are seen. You are safe. You are free to feel without filters. Whether you come carrying stress, silence, or celebration, we welcome what aches—and amplify what heals.

This is not just a spa. This is a frequency. A ritual. A place where you don’t have to fix yourself—You return to who you’ve always been.

 We encourage you to come as you are, and leave as you crave to feel.
