She loves tennis, working out, gardening, and family time.
Maarit Lehtovuori
The studio’s massage therapist, Maarit, first met Mireille while working together at Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Studio. Since then, Maarit has developed a deep passion for the importance of massage, as she believes it is more than just relaxation—it’s essential self-care for everyone.
Over the years, her philosophy has benefited clients for more than 20 years, including during her time at the Ritz-Carlton’s Carlton Club in Chicago. “Everybody holds tension differently,” she explains. “Tell me your tight spot, and I’ll find a way to release it.”
Originally from Yläne, Finland, Maarit graduated from the Chicago School of Massage Therapy in 1994. She is certified in deep tissue, Swedish, myofascial, and hot stone therapies. In addition, she specializes in pregnancy and infant massage. Above all, she welcomes clients of all body types and ages for her therapeutic services.
