Our People

Mary Martorano

I began my career in holistic bodywork in 1988 earning a certification in Swedish & Sports Massage at The American Institute of Massage Therapy, Inc. in Costa Mesa, California. My desire to learn more anatomy and physiology prompted me back to school and having studied and performed dance in Pittsburgh and New York City I followed my lifelong passion earning a BA in Dance from San Jose State University in 1992.

Combining my love of dance and a keen awareness of the benefits of therapeutic movement I developed various restorative movement classes designed to eliminate pain and restore natural health.  In 2002 I discovered Nia Technique and fell in love with this joyful movement practice which blends nine different movement forms from the dance arts, martial arts, and the healing arts. That same year I went on to earn my White Belt certification in Portland, OR and returned in 2003 to earn my Blue Belt certification. NiaNow.com

For the past 25 years I had been successfully operating a private massage therapy practice, Therapy at Hand, Inc. Knowing absolutely nothing about Bowenwork, I attended my first class in 2004 at the prompting of my cousin.  Although still very skeptical after the first day of instruction in a technique where so little touch was involved, I returned the next morning a true believer having experienced a profound and healing shift in my own body.  In 2005 I earned an advanced accreditation in Bowenwork from the Bowen Academy of Australia and quickly began to transition my massage practice to specialize in Bowenwork.  The results of this work have been profound. After 5 years of practice I went on to become an Accredited Bowenwork Instructor and am excited to share this amazing body of work with others.

Whether through the joyful practice of Nia, gentle restorative movement, or the powerful stimulation of Bowenwork I invite you to awaken your own healing powers to change the way your body moves and feels.
