Pain Relief From Face to Foot
Massage Therapy, Rolf Method, Somatic Guidance
Welcome, I'm Eric.
Have you ever had a truly great massage that leaves you in a daze wondering, "what just happened?" and wanting more? That's what I aim for in every session. I enjoy creating unique bodywork treatments for people who are either in pain, want to stay out of pain or want to unlock their body's full potential.
Located in Montpelier, Vermont, I offer a safe space for people to slow down, soften and rest. This is a sanctuary for healing body, mind and spirt. A place where living pain free becomes reality.
No matter where you are in your life's journey, I will meet you there and take you closer to where you want to be.
Deep Tissue Massage
If you like to feel the deep pressure in your body that comes along with a "good" deep tissue massage, this session will be just right for you.
With a focus on relaxing muscle fibers that lie far beneath the skin. Deep tissue massage alleviates stiffness that limits range of motion, "knots" that never go anway and chronic joint pain that keeps you from moving and feeling your best.
Myofascial Release
If you like a more holistic approach that is slow, intuitive , gentle and yet deeply satisfying, myofascial release therapy will be the right choice for you. Focusing more on fascia than pressing into muscles, myofascial release changes your body and is a corrective, effective and lasting way to alleviate and resolve: neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, headaches, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel, TMJ and more.
Rolf Method
If you need to make some serious changes in your body or in your life, The Traditional Rolf Method for Structural Integration will be perfect for you. Rolf Method sessions are a blend of assessments, bodywork, movement education and optional somatic guidance. These sessions are designed to resolve chronic pain, improve posture, restore movements that have gotten lost or forgotten about and empower you with information you need to keep you moving well with more range of motion and less or no pain.
SOMATIC GUIDANCE
We all have stress and trauma trapped in our bodies, especially if you watch or listen to the news these days. These are stressful times and it is important to release the accumulated trauma that gets stored and trapped in your muscles and joints. Somatic guidance is a gentle way to facilitate the release of stress, trauma or whatever you are holding onto that is unhelpful and no longer serving you. Letting go of stress and trauma: improves physical and mental well-being, emotional regulation, reduces anxiety and can be the missing link when resolving chronic pain.
ROLF METHOD
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. Lasting relief and rejuvenation await those ready to embrace a new approach to wellness.
