“I am a 29 year old psychology student from Sweden. I came to Martha out of curiosity. I am interested in therapy in general and wanted to see how including my body could increase my awareness. I am what you call a “heady” person. During our sessions, Martha helped me experience how my posture relates to how I feel about myself. Then she would use different very pleasant techniques to help me get more “in touch” with parts of my body that I didn’t feel much. When the session was over, I was able to experience my body in a whole new way. It was subtle but very powerful. With Martha’s help, I could compare my normal pattern of moving/standing to another more relaxed way. Now I can practice this other way of being in my body, and there is a big difference. I have been in psychotherapy for a year. It has been a good experience, but I do wish that SPRe existed in Sweden so that I could come for more sessions. I got more out of two sessions with Martha than I did in months of strictly verbal therapy! Her work is gentle but thorough.“

“I was almost ready to give up the search for pain relief when I about SPRe Bodywork from my chiropractor. My practitioner discovered I had a significant leg length discrepancy. It wasn’t the first time I had this information, but it was the first time there was a way to work with it. My practitioner explained how the longer leg always tries to compensate for the shorter leg by shrinking, compressing, and rotating all the joints on that side of the body. After being assessed for a lift to wear on the bottom of my shoes, instead of inside, we began the process of “unraveling” all the compensations that were the source of my pain. Although I was focused on the physical cause of my pain, it became clear that as my physical balance shifted, my life became more balanced. I’m back to enjoying golf and being nearly pain-free.“

“SPRe helped me see through a window I had not known existed. I now have opportunities in my life that were unavailable to me before.“
