PAIN RELIEF

Welcome.  Thank you for your interest.


I'm Eric, a board certified, trauma informed Hellerwork Structural Integration practitioner, educator and writer.  I design personalized bodywork treatments and work in a gentle, holistic way with the bones, fascia and nervous system to painlessly release fascial restrictions that squeeze nerves, create pain and limit movement. 


Working in and making changes to the  fascial system is an effective, corrective and lasting way to treat chronic pain, of any kind, improve structural alignment and recover lost mobility.


PAIN-FREE LIVING IS NOT A DREAM.  IT IS A REALITY WAITING FOR YOU.

Neck

Unlike typical Massage Therapy, which focuses on muscles, my treatments focus on bones, nerves and fascia to resolve pain and bring lasting change to the body's structure, unlocking new ways of moving, feeling and being.

Shoulders

As odd as it may seem, lengthening fascia in and around the arm pit is imperative in order to resolve:  neck pain, shoulder pain, headaches,  thoracic outlet syndrome, carpal tunnel syndrome and even many jaw issues like TMJ.


PAIN FREE LIVING IS WITHIN REACH.

Hips

If you have SI Joint pain, hip joint pain or low back pain, you have a hip movement issue.  I find as the body’s natural hip movements are restored, pain subsides and goes away.  The simple solution is to mobilize the SI joints, get the hip bones moving again and experience pain naturally subside.  

 

LIBERATE YOUR HIPS AND BE HAPPIER.

What to expect

Sessions with me will likely be unlike anything you have experienced before.  You will feel subtle, yet profound myofascial release techniques that decompress joints, soften fascial restrictions, relieve pressure on bones and alleviate pain, naturally and painlessly.


Afterwards, you will stand taller, with more ease in your body and you will move better with less or no pain.  


If learning about your posture and how to improve it interests you, I can give you personalized exercises and stretches to do at home that will continue to change your fascia.  


Changing fascia is not difficult.  You just need a good teacher to show you the way. I am a good teacher and would enjoy empowerng you with the information you need to know in order to get on track to living a pain free life.  


GET  ELEVATED  AND  REVITALIZED.

The Rolf 10 Series

In the 1940's and 50's, Ida Rolf created an entire manual therapy system utilizing Myofascial Release techniques to change fascia and improve a persons overall structural alignment which eliminates or greatly reduces all kinds of chronic pain while improving:   joint mobility,  muscle elasticity, balance, breathing, energy, vitality and an overall sense of being more embodied.


She called it Structural Integration, but it became widely known as Rolfing©.  Going through a 10 series is like overhauling your whole body, mind and spirit.  For many people it is a profound and life changing experience.  


If you are feeling stuck in life, and are feeling like your body needs an overhaul,  The Rolf 10 series can be a profound and powerful way to make changes in your life.  


Changes are not limited to the physical body. It is common for people to experience improvements in their thinking and emotional bodies.  Thinking gets more clear and emotions tend to come into balance as the physical body comes into alignment. 


A healthier, more vibrant life is within reach.  Pain-free living is achievable with the right support and techniques.  Lasting relief and rejuvenation await those ready to embrace a new approach to wellness.


YOUR JOURNEY BEGINS HERE.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please call or text Eric 802-505-3057 if you have other questions

The exact Phrase "myofascial release" was coined in the 1960's by Robert Ward, an osteopath who studied with Ida Rolf, the originator of Rolfing©.  “Myo” refers to muscle and “fascial” refers to fascia, the thin fibrous material the runs through and wraps around muscles.  Rolf created an entire  bodywork system based on Myofascial Release  techniques to  treat chronic pain and improve posture. She called it Structural Integration, but in her honor, it became known as Rolfing©. 


Myofascial Release treatments feel quite different than massage.  Myofascial Release is  like a blend of Physical Therapy, Chiropractic and Massage Therapy.  In broad general terms, Massage Therapists work on the muscles, Physical Therapists strengthen muscles and Chiropractors work on the bones.  Myofascial Release Therapists work in the fascia.  By releasing fascial restrictions, the fasciae of the body can lengthen and become balance, which decompresses joints and  allows bones to return to their natural alignment.



All Rolfers®  are Structural Integrators, but not all Structural Integrators are Rolfers®.  The words ROLFER and ROLFING are service marks of  The Dr. Ida Rolf Institute® of Structural Integration.  The words ROLFER and ROLFING are used by individuals trained and certified by the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute®.   Other Schools of Structural Integration have shared roots with The Dr. Ida Rolf Institute®  through the study of Ida Rolf's rich legacy of teachings. Graduates from other schools ca say they practice The Rolf Method of Structural Integration, not Rolfing®. 


Structural Integration when done well is relaxing.  Fascia changes effortlessly and painlessly when muscles are relaxed. It's  magical.                                 


No, you will benefit from a single session or two but the most lasting changes will be experienced during a Traditional Rolf 10 Series.
