Hi, I’m Martha Heise, a trained Myofascial Release (MFR) therapist, here to help you find lasting relief from pain and limitations brought on by health concerns. Are you used to doing what you love without any thought and now you are in pain or have to exert a lot of effort? Have you heard a lot of labels for what you are experiencing and would like support living your life more fully?

Are you

• returning to play/work after an injury?

• managing chronic pain?

• experiencing migraines, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, or other challenges?

I Feel Heard and My Constant Headaches Are Gone

C.M. shares their experience...I began seeing Martha almost a year ago to help with my constant headaches. She has not only brought me relief from the headaches, her therapy techniques have also helped other areas including sinuses and muscle discomfort. Martha is a dedicated health care professional who listens attentively to her patients and provides individualized treatment programs. Would highly recommend Martha to anyone.

Experience sessions with Martha and feel safe and heard and notice your tension released and replaced by a feeling of lightness and openness. Myofascial Release Therapy is here for you and your well-being. It can be a means of helping you relax and recharge. We look at your whole body, not just the symptoms to get at the root cause of your pain and other challenges. MFR Therapy complements many other approaches to health and we are willing to partner with other professionals who are part of your wellness team.  

MFR Therapy Had a Profound Impact on My Quality of Life

J.G. offered this perspective on the benefits of MFR sessions...Martha is an outstanding professional whose assistance has been invaluable to me over the past few years. Her expertise in addressing various health concerns, including acid reflux and side pain, as well as stress and emotional issues, has been instrumental in enhancing my overall well-being. I have confidently recommended her services to numerous friends and family members who have also benefited from her remarkable abilities. Martha's contributions have had a profound impact on my life, and I am deeply grateful for her continued support.

Having an active lifestyle, a martial arts practice, and an interest in helping others be their best drew me to studying Barnes' myofascial release therapy and becoming a massage therapist. 

Massage therapy training and focused continuing education (in addition to my prior science background and martial arts practice) supported my shifting from an early career in molecular biological research and IT to offering Barnes' myofascial release to those interested in having a more active, joyful, pain-free life.

I know what it’s like to want to be more engaged in physical activity at a high level and have the energy and freedom of movement to contribute at work, volunteer activities, and in my family life. My normally active life was interrupted in my mid-20s by an emergency surgery. The resulting adhesions (scar tissue) left pain and some challenges to my returning to work and the activities I loved at the same level. I was introduced to a Barnes' myofascial release therapist who helped me reduce the scar tissue and its effects while I shifted my mindset about my health and well-being. I have continued receiving MFR therapy regularly (more or less with life changes) which has allowed me to reduce tension, improve my mobility, and get more from strength training and other physical activity. I became an MFR therapist to bring this approach to others who want to live their life to their fullest whatever their pursuits.

Reduce the strain and restrictions from repetitive patterns, injury, inflammation, and stress and feel more present and engaged in your life.

Individualized Attention Brings Relief for Me

B.L. notes her experience...Martha is very knowledgeable and extremely professional. Martha takes time to listen, ask questions and formulate a valid solution to your needs. Her ability to address your body's needs with the proper response in her healing methods makes her very valuable to your health needs. I recommend her highly.
I have had a back issue for quite some time.  Martha has addressed it from a totally different place than previous options. In 2 weeks I can say I already have significantly less spasms and pain. Make an appointment and get relief today.
