About Marthe

Experience

Marthe Murphy has been a practicing massage therapist, exercise therapist and practitioner of the healing arts for 19 years.  She’s worked in a variety of settings with physicians, chiropractors, yoga masters and First Nation’s peoples.

Training

Marthe completed her initial massage training at Grant MacEwan Community College in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in 1991.  In 1994 she began her training with St. John Seminars in Largo, Florida and later went on to certify within their program.  She currently is one of 3 certified St. John Neuromuscular Therapists in Alberta, one of 24 in Canada.  After that she trained in the field of Muscle Balance and Physical Development® which gave her the know how in exercise therapy.  Since then her curiosity and desire to understand the human condition has led her to train and work with many different modalities and teachers.  Marthe has journeyed within Buddhism, Shamanism and the teachings of Abraham Hicks to walk her own path of learning, healing and becoming.

Philosophy

I know a human being to be an energy field (spirit) that uses the physical body for the purpose of experiencing life, to learn and to evolve, to have fun and to love. My job as the therapist is to soothe the symptom, get you relaxed and calm (healing can never occur if stress or worry is present) and then provide you with education and tools on how to regain your balance, strengthen and maintain it. You were born to be healthy, well and have abundance in your life.  If you are not where you want to be, you just have some blocks in your way.  I can help you clear those blocks. I am excited to meet you and look forward to walking with you for a time on your journey!

Healing is a matter of time, but is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.   ~Hippocrates


Client Testimonials

I work with a 33 year old special needs individual who has joined me in the Intentionally Fit classes. It was amazing to witness this young lady’s posture improve from hunched over to almost perfectly erect in an 8 week time span, For myself, I found the classes to be very accommodating. Marthe would often adjust exercises I found too easy, to increase the challenge and as I have fibroids, she also gave alternative exercises to do that would not create pain in my lower belly It was a privilege to be in a class where I felt looked after. Marthe knows how to assess situations and uses her knowledge base as a spring board. Her classes are fun and easy going, but she makes us work so we can get the results we desire.
