Deborah Marchi

Founder and Official Instructor of the Renata França Method in the UK

Originally from São Paulo and now based in London, Deborah Marchi is the founder of the brand that bears her name and the official instructor of the Renata França Method in the United Kingdom. With a background in public service in Brazil and a later journey through holistic therapies, including advanced certification in ThetaHealing® and Reiki, Deborah found her true calling in the art of therapeutic touch. For over three years, she has practiced the Renata França Method with dedication, combining technical mastery with intuitive care. In late 2024, she was formally invited to become the official instructor for the UK, a role that honors both her expertise and her integrity. Alongside her husband and business partner, Luciano Marchi, Deborah leads a hand-selected team of therapists with one shared mission: to offer treatments that are purposeful, present, and quietly transformative. To her, massage is more than a technique, It is a ritual of rhythm, reconnection, and renewal.

Luciano Marchi

Co-founder and Certified Therapist in the Renata França Method

Born in São Paulo, one of Brazil’s most vibrant cities, Luciano Marchi has always pursued his path with purpose. With a strong background in luxury markets and business management across Brazil and the UK, he brings strategic vision and creative leadership to the Deborah Marchi brand. A certified therapist in the Renata França Method, with additional training in sports massage and deep tissue, Luciano combines hands-on expertise with his role as the company’s strategist, overseeing operations, marketing and team development. Once focused on art and music, he now channels the same passion into the therapeutic world—helping people reconnect with balance and vitality through both technique and presence
