Marty
brings a profound and deep understanding and caring for the body to this business. He is a passionate belly massage practitioner and the only dually certified Mayan Abdominal Massage and Chi Nei Tsang practitioner in North America. Marty integrates these treatment modalities into his own unique style and states that, "both are a beautiful
marriage of working with the structure of the body as well as the energetic and emotional body." Marty also uses a variety of neuromuscular and myofascial release techniques in order to facilitate body awareness, relieve pain and tension patterns, and create deep relaxation. Marty splits his professional practice time with teaching manual therapy seminars to massage
professionals - called Love Your Guts Seminars - currently a 3-part certification series which focuses on the palpatory experience of the various organs and layers of the abdomen, and a wide variety of treatment techniques for pathologies of the digestive and reproductive systems. Marty states that, "I like to teach, even while I am working with patients," and feels that this is the best way to enhance awareness, understanding, and healing.

His massages are truly transformative, creating change in the body while sharing a wealth of information that leaves me deeply restored and inspired to actively engage in my own
well being. I've long been convinced of the benefits of massage therapy, but his abdominal work blew me away with results I never expected (relief from chronic bladder infection, a far more healthy menstrual cycle, and improved digestion). I am so grateful!" - C.K., Seattle, WA "Marty's massage work has been instrumental in my healing process. His talented hands stimulate and assist my organs and tissues creating some of the biggest releases and softenings of my body I've had. His personality and verbal encouragement even further his scope." - C.L., Seattle, WA "Marty is a Healer and Teacher passionate about his work.
