Female, 36 years of age. Booked massage to relieve tension and stiffness in neck and shoulder area, and to discover the origin of the problem to prevent further recurrences. After five treatments, the client felt Martin had 'got to the core of the problem' and that much of the tension had been released. The frequency of muscle spasms had also diminished. Male, 26 years of age, presented with aching legs. The discomfort improved, however during the first treatment it became apparent there might be a more serious problem. Martin referred the client back to his GP. A subsequent scan revealed the client had a spinal cord tumour. Male, 20 years of age. The original symptoms included pain in the neck, lumbar region, buttocks and hamstrings. He believed the hamstring pain originated from a sporting accident as a child, when the muscle 'snapped, tearing the ligament and damaging his pelvis'. Although the injury healed, it made him wary of taking part in any serious running. Martin worked to restore full function to the muscle, increasing the client's confidence in the leg. The client is now back training.
