A New Space. A New Chapter.
Max Serene Massage Therapy has a new home in Riverhead.
I'm so glad to finally share this with you. I'm now welcoming clients into my new private massage space at the Naturopathic Wellness Center in Riverhead.
This is more than just a room. It's something I believed in, worked toward, and created for myself. Now, I get to create a space where you can step away from the noise, take a breath, and take care of you.
My mobile massage services aren't going anywhere — you'll still be able to book mobile sessions throughout the week. But now, you'll also have the option to come to me.
A new space. A new chapter. And I'm ready for it.
Book Your SessionA Little Time Away
Closed November 15–21
Max Serene Massage Therapy will be closed November 15–21 while I head to Dallas, Texas, to compete in my first HYROX Open Women's race!
For those unfamiliar, HYROX is an indoor fitness competition that combines 8 kilometers of running with 8 functional workout stations — a test of strength, endurance, and mental toughness.
But this race is about more than fitness for me. I'm running for mental health. Fitness has played a huge role in my own journey, helping me find strength, purpose, and a sense of myself through some difficult times. I'm using this race as an opportunity to raise funds and awareness for mental health, and every bit of support makes a difference.

What We Offer
Our Signature Services
Each session is thoughtfully tailored to your body's needs — because no two people carry the same tension.
Pause & Reset
Short on time but still need a moment? A focused 30-minute massage targeting the area that needs it most — neck, back, or legs. Step away, reset, and get back to your day feeling refreshed.
Unwind
Long, flowing strokes melt away surface tension and calm the nervous system. Ideal for first-time clients or anyone in need of a full-body reset. Every session includes hot towels and aromatherapy.
Emerge
Firm, focused pressure reaches the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to release chronic knots and long-held tension. Every session includes hot towels and aromatherapy.
Renew
A complete wellness experience designed to help you pause, unwind, and leave feeling renewed. Each session is personalized to your body’s needs that day, combining tailored massage techniques with soothing aromatherapy, warm towels, a relaxing scalp massage, and hot stones to create a deeply restorative experience. Every detail is thoughtfully chosen to help you release tension, relax, and reconnect with yourself.

What Clients Are Saying
"I highly recommend Katora Miller as a massage therapist. She always leaves me deeply relaxed and restored. As far as I'm concerned she is the best of the best."
Celia I.
"Have had the best experiences with Katora, always exactly what I need. The deep tissue massage is spot on, working through all the tension without ever feeling too intense. I always walk away feeling like I'd had a full-body reset. Highly recommend if you're looking to really unwind and feel the difference after."
Jayme B.
"Katora, fabulous massage, relaxing, nice amount of pressure, lovely lady."
Bob Z.
"I am a IFBB professional bodybuilder and had bad shoulder mobility, from my first session with Katora I've had relief and more mobility. And it's only getting better and better. She knows exactly what to work and I never want the hour to end! I also get cupping with her which she is very good at (not everyone is). If you need serious body work or just a nice relaxing massage go to Katora!! 20/10"

"I've seen Katora twice — each massage has brought a somatic cleansing for my mind, body and soul. I left each session feeling grounded, relaxed and safe. Katora's hard work, skill, expertise and healing hands are truly impressive. I highly recommend Katora Miller LMT for an incredible massage. I am so grateful our paths have crossed."

Kat takes the time to understand what you're seeking from each session and creates a wonderfully welcoming and healing space. I would give her more than five stars if I could!

I have had years of massages that are basically body rubs. Yes, they certainly feel good, relaxing and looking forward to the next. However, a deep tissue massage with Katora is a different level of massage. Her knowledge of the human body and her ability to zero in on problem areas even i wasn't aware of leaves me rejuvenated. This is a healing and theraputic massage like none I've had before.

What a wonderful experience! Katora is caring and professional. The space is quite and comfortable and Katora made me feel relaxed upon my arrival. She took time to listen to my issues before our session, and made every effort to target the areas that needed attention. Katora is passionate about her work (and it shows!). I am a repeat customer, and I highly recommend you give Max Serene a try-you won't be disappointed.

I had such a great experience with Katora! Her space is so cozy and peaceful, you feel relaxed as soon as you walk in. She used hot stones, gave me a scalp massage, and a full-body massage. She really takes her time and puts so much care into what she does. Nothing felt rushed. She's also such a sweetheart! I left feeling so relaxed and can't recommend her enough!
