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

Marthe is not only an accomplished practitioner of neuromuscular therapy, but also a very caring person. If you've ever had a back problem, you know how excruciating that can be. I recently went to see Marthe because I had twisted my back in a bout of snow shoveling, and even the simplest daily activities were difficult to do. Marthe took the time to assess my condition and patiently explained the causes and therapy required. Her application of the treatment was both professional and compassionate. Best of all, at the end of the treatment, my back pain was gone! It is my pleasure to recommend Marthe as a knowledgeable and skilled professional.
