Therapeutic Bodywork of South Austin

If James Brown was the hardest working man in show business, Brian is the hardest working man in body work! 7 days a week!? Very convenient for our kid athletes in school! And as a physical therapist, I can tell you he knows what he is doing and has been doing it a long time. He isn’t big on websites and swanky digs. He cares more about digging into your calves! Highly recommend!

Top-tier therapeutic massage at a great value! I’ve been dealing with some persistent muscle tension lately, and Brian was incredible at pinpointing the problem areas right away. He focused on my shoulders, hips, and legs with just the right amount of pressure. The pressure was firm, effective, and deeply therapeutic. You can tell he’s highly experienced and truly knows and cares about his craft. I left feeling noticeably more relaxed and balanced. I’ll absolutely be coming back for any future therapeutic needs. Highly recommend Brian if you're looking for expert-level care at a fair price!

Brian Marten does soft tissue therapy. This is not a spa massage! However, if you have an injury or discomfort Brian's method is great. He is very honest and his rate is reasonable. He had helped me many times and I don't go anywhere else at this point. His knowledge of his craft and the body never ceases to impress.

I feel if ever a review was needed, then this one! Brian Martens helped me with a chronic shoulder problem that a total of 4 other physical therapists completely failed to alleviate. His approach was by far the most painful yet the only one that addressed the issue head-on. I'm very grateful to have someone like Brian, who makes no fuss but stays focused and compassionate throughout the process. His focus on deep tissue myofascial release is, my guess, probably the hardest thing to do or promise, but he delivers 100%. Doesn't hurt that he has the physical strength to do this.

I saw Brian a few years ago for leg and hip pain, due to tightness from working out. Within 2 sessions, the pain was 100% gone. This type of bodywork is the only one worth going to for chronic pain, it's no day at the spa (it's quite painful and not for everyone!) but you'll come out a new person. I just got back from another appointment with him after a couple of years, and am already feeling brand new!
