“Amazing—I
looked forward to each session. I felt a difference after each
session. I breathe deeper and better during activities, I have
better posture, and chronic tightness in my back muscles was
relieved. It took me beyond where yoga and massage have taken me in
terms of flexibility. Everyone should complete the series.”
Alissa Zissman
“It changed my posture, making it easier to stand and sit
erect. I have better movement and more coordination throughout my
body. I notice that it is easier to stretch in all directions, and
breathing is easier. It seems like I walk easier.”
Lynnis Steinert
“I feel stronger and taller, I have more stamina, I can get
up and down more easily, and I feel more balanced.”
Louise Web
“It was just what I needed. All physical movement feels more
fluid. It was very relaxing, and there was a sense of benefit while
it was going on. I see so many people that appear to be in pain, and
I know they could benefit from this.”
Jann Pitcher
“It was excellent. I feel lighter, more flexibility, more
range of motion, easier breathing, less stress with my lower back,
and energetically more at ease, balanced, and centered. It
works—improving quality of life.”
Thomas Marschall
“After leaving a session each time I would have a more positive,
confident outlook—walking straighter and taller—in all aspects
of my life.”
Margaret Burke-Smith
“The original sessions and occasional tune-ups have been very
productive. It really changed my quality of life. After
having open-heart surgery, I have no chest pain. I am able to pursue
all activities with complete flexibility, easier breathing, and more
range of motion. I feel a lot stronger and my body works more as a
unit now. I was confident with Eric and the treatments he provided.
It was a very positive experience.”
Chris Nelson
“I was able to tell an immediate difference in the way I hold my
body. Several weeks later I realized that I felt better—less
aches and pains, and stronger overall. It helped my attitude toward
aging and its physical manifestations. Rolfing makes sense and
addresses the effects of gravity and old injuries in a direct and
noticeable experience.”
Randal Davis
“It was wonderful—excellent. I feel younger and stronger,
with more drive. I feel open, straighter. I’m able to lift heavier
objects and work longer hours in the house and garden, and am less
tired by the end of the day. Lifting and getting up from a lying or
sitting position used to cause back discomfort—not anymore. I would
encourage rolfing to friends. Improving the posture and opening up
the ability to breathe fully is an excellent step to good health.”
Merel Marshall
“It was relaxing to receive this work. It has helped me to
stand and walk more upright with less pain in my lower back and a
greater sense of ease and lightness while walking.”
Bryan Hinds
“I looked forward to the sessions and enjoyed the experience.”
Julie Hinds
“It was very positive, it felt great! I noticed a marked
decrease in hip pain and greater range of motion in my neck. I can
garden now without lower-back pain, I have a greater sense of ease
when standing for an extended time, and more fluidity when walking.”
Ilene Haykus
“It was excellent. I experienced the common
benefits—mobility, suppleness, structural stability, and I felt and
appeared taller and slimmer. It improved my awareness and my posture
and gave me a sense of youthfulness. My body moves quicker, I feel
brighter and happier, and do many activities better and faster with
an attitude of wellness. My knee is pain-free. Because it works, I
would recommend it, definitely.”
Delores Butler
“I became more educated and aware of my posture, walk and fluidity
of movement. An irritating click in my neck (which was almost
painful) is gone. I want my friend to do it to improve his
health and wellness and to eliminate pain and restrictions.”
Steven Butler
“It was great. It gave me balance in the body, balance in the mind.
I feel more flexible, solid on my feet, and more athletic. It
helped my basketball game and work with easier motor functioning. It
relieved my hip after surgery, I let go of negative emotion, and
felt much more energy. I have recommended it as it made me feel
years younger physically.”
Terry Smith
“Great! I liked getting the
10-series—and love getting regular follow-up three’s—it helps me
stay open and in alignment. It has helped me to continue to fully
appreciate my life! My muscles are more relaxed, I feel that I
stand taller, I have less pain, more flexibility, and my breathing
is fuller. After each session I felt more balanced, light in my
body, open, and energized. It felt great to receive this
work—not as painful as it has been in the past—I felt that Eric was
very present and great at checking in to make sure the pressure was
OK. It will help people with their alignment, increase their
awareness of their body, and help them be free of pain.”
Barbara Griffin
“It was very good! I looked
forward to going to my sessions every week. I had carpal tunnel
syndrome and was limited in the amount of work I could do—it was
better afterward. I thought it was excellent.”
Julie Burch
“Having experienced about
twenty-two rolfing sessions in the ‘no pain, no gain’ era, it was
a treat to discover Eric’s gentle and effective way of
reading the body structure and its response to the work. His
ethics, compassion, and skill make it easy to recommend him to my
friends and clients.”
Elizabeth Coleman
“I stood taller, was more
comfortable walking, I found some relief in my hip which has had
chronic pain, and my breathing was fuller. I enjoyed receiving the
work.”
Karina Silver
“Wonderful. I enjoyed the
process. I thought it would be painful, having heard stories, but
it was quite relaxing much of the time. I feel more aligned,
fluid, lighter, balanced, and less burdened by creeping aches and
pains that have accumulated over the years. I can take long
walks with no lower-back or hip pain. I felt much more space in my
diaphragm and core area, I felt a remarkable sense of lightness, and
ease in my breathing. I could feel my body letting go and literally
untangling. I think the work could be likened to a fountain of
youth—it has revitalized my body and given me a new platform to move
my life.”
Emily Tholberg
“Wonderful. It was physically
freeing. I am more upright, stronger, and more fluid. Tension
that I used to carry in the upper shoulders and neck is gone. I
experienced re-alignment that I haven’t gotten from any other type
of bodywork. I would absolutely recommend this work.”
Brad Van Wormer
“Structural Integration
improved my posture, balance, and stability in activities such as
climbing and hiking—I’ve been able to do more outdoor
activities. There’s a more spacious feeling throughout my core,
more length and flexibility throughout my entire body, and less pain
in my back and neck.”
Julie Walls
“Excellent—it got rid of old
‘holdings’ in my body. I noticed an ease, flexibility,
lightness, an overall freedom in movement, a flow of energy, and
greater confidence, balance, and centeredness. I would love to
have on-going work and deepen this process.”
Cary Ellis
“It was very positive—I felt more
flexibility and less pain. The services were very professional.
I would especially recommend this work for people with poor posture
or severe pain.”
