About Me
I’d like to introduce myself.
My name is Danielle Bakker, and I was born in the wonderful city Amsterdam. After wandering from Zeeland, to Het Gooi, I ended up on the charming coast of Marbella.
​
In 1991 I received my sportsmassage diploma, and it was the start of a bountiful journey. At that time it wasn’t clear to me that this was something that I wanted to do, but when I moved to Zeeland it dawned on me. I realised I wanted to fulfill the potential and started reading into the variety of relaxation massages. This was also the moment when I started my very own practice.
​
A friend brought me Reconnective Healing® at the beginning of 2007. It was the tipping point at which I realised I wanted to choose how to live my own life. I started to incorporate intuition into my massage style, and use feeling. During this period I followed courses to continue to develop myself, making me an expert on Hotstone massages, Ayurvedic massages and DMT (Deep Massage Technics).
​
Summer 2014 marked my return to Het Gooi, in which I rebuild my practice with the rekindled passion that I felt like I had lost.
In 5 years I managed to build a steady practice with wonderful guests, for which I am grateful.
It wasn’t long before I realised that I wanted to live out my greatest dream, and move towards the sun. Which is what brings me here, in Spain. Body & Mind Massage combines years of expertise, a true way with the body, a feeling of calmness for the mind, and the intuition of an expert.
