Testimonials
"I began seeing Ruth for left sternoclavicular joint osteoarthritis and shoulder pain after six years of severe pain. I have seen several specialists who were unable to help me as this is a rare form of osteoarthritis. Since I started receiving Structural Energetic Therapy, myofascial release, and neuromuscular massages with Ruth, my pain has decreased to 50% and my range of motion is much improved. I would highly recommend Ruth for any pain issues."

"I've recently started working with someone trained in Myofascial Release. So far the results have been impressive. After just the first session, I immediately saw a big difference in my hip mobility. It is easier for me to perform deep squats, but more importantly, I'm running faster with less effort. I've also seen a dramatic improvement in my shoulder mobility. I'm now able to do passovers with my hands several inches closer together than I could before. Finally, since starting with Myofascial Release, I just generally feel better. All of the annoying little kinks and twinges I used to have are either gone, or dramatically reduced. I'll probably never be able to do leg spits, or touch my head to my knees, but I think full range-of-motion overhead squats are now a distinct possibility.
If you live in the Greater Boston area, and are interested in Myofascial Release, I highly recommend my therapist Ruth Soper of Bodyology Therapeutics."

"I was suffering from nerve pain and numbness in my left arm and hand for a few months and got very little relief from this chronic pain with the anti-inflammatories and muscle relaxers prescribed by doctors. Their diagnosis was degenerative changes in my cervical spine. I felt much better after my first treatment with Ruth and my symptoms resolved after a few treatments. It felt as though I was Humpty Dumpty and Ruth was able to put me back together again!"

"I'm a 42 yr old male that had a partial rupture of my achilles tendon last oct/nov.I waited til may when it was healed to start to run/do cardio like the Dr. instructed but still was tight/not painful but uncomfortable.Tried deep tissue massage from others it did nothing.I went to Ruth to try something different & she worked on me paying special attention to that injured area & it was amazing!! I feel like I never was injured @ all not only does it feel normal again the scar tissue on my achilles is virtually gone.I feel great thanks to Ruth & highly recommend her for anything you need shes incredibly talented."

"Ruth Soper doesn't know it, but she is a genius and a true healer. For the last 6 years I have suffered from an extremely painful TMJ and head/neck/shoulder condition. It had really ruined my quality of life. I had seen numerous therapists over the years, and some very good ones, but did not get substantial or lasting relief. One of them recommended that I try a deeper technique like myofascial. So I did a random Google search, and was lucky to find Ruth.
In just 4 session Ruth has practically eliminated the discomfort, reducing my pain by about 60% or higher. On some days I feel the pain is almost gone! Her technique is focused, and she works with very directed strokes. Sometimes she goes over one area just once or twice and it is enough. Her understanding of the body and this system she follows called SET seems to have really worked well together. She is very intuitive and takes a holistic approach to address the long-term cause, while balancing that with the need to reduce immediate symptoms and pain.
I was so pleased that I volunteered to write this testimonial and will go out way out of my way to recommend her to friends and anyone who has body pain. Thanks again Ruth."

"My Structural Energetic Therapy sessions with Ruth have enabled me to cycle harder and longer with decreased recovery time. This past weekend, I rode 70 miles on my bike. I had more energy during and after than expected, and I recovered much better (very little muscle soreness, no aches to knees or lower back, and no fatigue the next day). Another persistent plus is the increased mobility through my left hip and leg. They were always "behind" the right side, and it's not the case now. Epic improvements in my overall physical health! Thank you!"

"SET is the most valuable massage technique and the only thing that worked for me after a devastating car accident. Having accumulated so many medical bills from other providers that gave me no relief, a chiropractor suggested SET to me. After one session I instantly felt 80% better than I had since my car accident over a year ago! My progress and healing continued as I worked with my SET therapist. To this day, it is the only form of treatment I use. Originally from Florida, I used to fly there for my treatments as no one was in Boston that was trained. When I learned that two people in the Boston area had finished the SET training classes, I was ecstatic! I instantly made an appointment with Ruth and have been using her services ever since. Ruth's knowledge and training of SET work has helped me overcome a more recent accident. She is excellent at what she does and has been supportive in my healing. I tell all my friends to use her services when dealing with a nagging injury. I highly recommend Ruth and SET for all your ailments!"

"Ruth is by far the best massage therapist I have ever had and I have been on cruises, to Scottsdale Camelback Resort, and many other high end spas where I have had massage. I always compare their treatments to Ruth's and she always comes out ahead."
Sharon M, Registered Nurse, Milton, MA – 12/08
"Ruth's massage work is top notch. She is a leader in her field and more knowledgeable about the body and healing than any massage therapist I have ever worked with before. I highly recommend her for anyone interested in healing the body and the mind!"

"I've seen Ruth for two plus years. She is really the best massage therapist I have ever used (and over the years, I've tried a few!)."

"I had hip replacement surgery one year ago and was experiencing a chronic tightness with limited range of motion that was uncomfortable and not getting any better. I started having Structural Energetic Therapy with Ruth and after two sessions the tightness was gone and my range of motion is back to where it should be. Ruth is a gifted practicioner whose treatment sessions not only help the body but also the mind and spirit!"

"After almost 20 years of chiropractic adjustments, I was so happy to have discovered a new method of dealing with my back disorder – scoliosis. Structural Energetic Therapy with Ruth Soper has been a godsend in relieving the chronic back spasms I had been enduring for at least a couple of years. I have always been an energetic person but lost that energy when the spasms were most active and irritating. The best thing that could have happened to me was to find Ruth and (SET) Structural Energetic Therapy!!"

Dear Ruth,
"Just a short note to let you know that I feel terrific. It is, to me, a miracle. I noticed yesterday that I didn't have to pull myself out off bed and when I put on my sweats, I could lift my leg. I sat on the couch and read the Sunday paper, and was able to get up without feeling like a pretzel.
The Structural Energetic Therapy worked beautifully, and I am looking forward to my next treatment. I'm totally impressed. Just cannot believe it!!!!!!!
You're awesome. Nice job!!!! Thank You."
Best,
MaryJo, Health Administrator

"You don't just come for a massage, you come for a healing. Ruth has the ability to get in tune with what a person's body needs"

"I got huge relief from the trigger point pain in my neck after Ruth worked on it. She always listens to me and tailors my massages to meet my specific needs. It's never a "cookie cutter" massage, but unique and helpful every time."
Mary S., Milton, MA
"Before I saw Ruth for massage I had to rotate my whole upper body to look over my shoulder. After Ruth worked on my neck and shoulders there was a marked improvement in flexibility most noticeably during and after a 56 mile bike ride."
