I've been working with Rafael for the past few years, and have had great success in changing my body and my approach to staying in shape. He's also provided solutions to my physical problems. I was injured and he relieved my aches and pains by studying what I was doing wrong and making simple, easy adjustments. Now, under his watch, back and shoulder pain no longer slow me down.

I recently had surgery on my lower back and have found Rafael’s Movement and Posture Restoration sessions to be critical to my recovery. These sessions have helped to activate my muscles, as well as restore and improve my range of motion.”
-Colin Cowie, Lifestyle Guru, frequent guest on Oprah.
I have been a chronic asthmatic my entire life. In 2003 my left lung had collapsed and was subsequently put on steroids to control my asthma. It was so bad that I couldn't sleep an entire night without waking up to use my inhaler or nebulizer. Excessive snoring has made sleepless nights for my wife as well. After hearing many recommendations about Rafael's movement and posture restoration techniques I decided to have a session with Rafael. He took the time to explain his methods and while working with me, he gave me extensive knowledge on the subject. I left Rafael's feeling refreshed and energetic. When I arrived home my wife noticed how my posture was more erect and my breathing was effortless. That night I slept like a baby. I did not wake up once to use my inhaler. My snoring has also subsided which has made nights more restful for my wife and myself. As I am writing this testimonial I am 4 days without using my inhaler. My thanks goes to Rafael and his Movement and Posture Restoration technique. My wife thanks you as well.
Sincerely

Rafael Torres has performed virtual miracles on my body. Whether it has been weightlifting, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Olympic Weightlifting or Muay Thai Kickboxing, I have been physically active for the better part of ten years. Needless to say my body has incurred many injuries along the way, one of the worst being a slipped vertebra in my lower back. I have been a client of Rafael’s for two years now, and both my mind and my body have never felt better. If it wasn’t for MPR I don’t think I would be able to walk to the store without severe pain, let alone train intensely for eight to twelve hours a week. He has truly been a Godsend.

Movement and Posture Restoration helped me recover from a back injury that lasted over six months after just one session I was pain free and ready to fight!

I am a competitive mountain bike racer, my body is constantly tearing down. If it wasn't for MPR I could not compete as frequently as I do. Thanks Rafael for keeping me on my bike!

I am an attorney and an avid soccer player. A few months ago, I was playing in a competitive indoor soccer match at Chelsea Piers and heard a terrible sound in my left calf muscle as I was running onto a pass. I collapsed and had to be helped off the field. I had had this type of injury a year before and the orthopedist specialist detected a small tear of the calf muscle. At that time, I underwent weeks of physical therapy and doctors’ visits until I was once again able to play any sport, especially soccer.
Based on the lengthy recuperation of my first injury, I approached Rafael Torres and was hopeful that he would shorten my rehabilitation time. I was curious to know whether his Movement and Posture Restoration sessions would somehow heal me in a more effective and faster way. I must admit that I was cynical and doubtful about these techniques previously unknown to me and I had turned to this new method out of desperation to try and play in a soccer tournament the following weekend.
When I first arrived to receive a session from Rafael, I was barely able to walk and I experienced a great deal of pain in my calf. Within one hour of the first session, my pain had dissipated by about 30% and I had regained a great deal of flexibility and motion in my left leg.
I received additional one-hour sessions for the next three days. At the end of the fourth session, I felt confident and able to not only walk but to play in the weekend tournament. I did in fact play in four matches on my over 30 team and we wound up champions of this international tournament in New York. I was able to play without pain though I was careful not to overly test the yield calf muscle.
Since I suffered this injury and received the sessions from Rafael, I play soccer two or three times a week and work out at the gym at least another three days per week. I have not experienced any discomfort or pain in the previously injured calf. My rehabilitation as compared to my first calf injury was only a few days versus a few months for the other injury.
As someone who has personally experienced and benefited from Rafael Torres’s techniques, I am deeply appreciative and supportive of his skills. I have referred him to other individuals I know with sports injuries and they have also experienced amazing results. Take it from a converted believer-Rafael's session’s work and they work well.

I started working with Rafael following months of physical therapy for both my shoulders. Rafael was able to significantly strengthen my shoulders in ways that physical therapy did not and in so doing has helped me get into the best shape of my life, pain-free. I strongly recommend Rafael to anyone who is looking to achieve ambitious fitness goals.

Amazing!!! I had a pain in my right Achilles tendon that would not go away and with only two sessions with Rafael Torres fantastic Movement and Posture Restoration I have no more pain.
Thank you Mr. Torres!!

Movement and Postures Restoration has completely altered my perception of the body and it's mechanics in relationship to exercise. You see immediate results of your muscles reacting and gaining strength. For me, this translated to a life-long nagging pain in my knees and cramping in my calves to disappear, my balance immediately took hold, and flexibility radically increased. Exercises which always seemed to have no effect on my body, changed when all my muscles were back functioning as a unit. Rafael has taken these techniques and applied it to create a optimal body workout, one which for years I was never received until the Movement and Posture Restoration brought back muscles that were too weak to response.
