“Marla’s intuitive and effective yet gentle approach to massage has brought me great relief in my jaw, lower back and neck pain – in particular I have been pleased with her cranial sacral/massage combo. I have seen countless physiotherapists, and other chiropractors, who did very little to ease my pain, only Marla and her techniques have been effective for me.” – Bev H.
