The Informed Body

Eric is an incredibly skilled body worker. I first went to him during my second pregnancy. He gave me immediate and complete relief from my SI pain where chiropractic, PT and massage did nothing lasting for my pain. His work is deep and intimate but so worth it. After 18 months postpartum, my SI pain recently returned and I am going back to work on this and more. I just left my first session back and immediately feel relief in my low back, increased space in my ribs to breathe more fully and increased range of motion throughout my whole body. I am excited not only for the relief from pain but also left the session with tools to work on my posture and gait so I can do work myself when I am not in session. I highly recommend him!

When I made my appointment, I didn't know exactly what to expect. He said it was a little different than a traditional massage and that it would help ease the tension that I carry, specially around my neck and shoulders. What I couldn't imagine is that with a single session I would experience so much relief. Honestly, my upper body hasn't felt this loose in years! He has a special way to create lots of space in your body. He is able to kind of separate your nerves and muscle fibers to help your body remember how it felt when you were nice and limber. Not only my posture looks better, but I also learned a lot during the session. I will definitely come back!

I have to give a huge shoutout to Eric Rose, CMT, for his incredible structural integration bodywork. I walked out of my session headache-free for the first time in a long time — and honestly, that alone felt life-changing. In just a few visits, I’ve learned more about how my body actually works (and what I can do to keep it working well) than I have in years. Eric has this rare ability to explain things in a way that makes everything click. As someone who struggles to rest or relax, being in Eric’s care is one of the few times I’m able to slow down and think only about myself — and that has been such a gift. If you’ve been considering bodywork, or you’ve been living with tension, pain, or stress for too long… I can’t recommend Eric enough!

Eric is a truly gifted bodyworker. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about his work, as well as being a kind and generous person. I came to him after twisting my ankle (on a leg that I had previously broken). Since I was going on a walking tour soon, I was very concerned about being in shape for this somewhat rigorous endeavor. He fit me in for three sessions before my trip, and then I continued to see him upon returning. I really believe he made it possible for me to do this trip. He basically taught me to walk properly, and as time went on, he worked with me on incorporating this work into my daily life, to truly embody and integrate the work. I feel like I understand so much more about myofascial release and structural integration, having experienced it with such a skilled practitio

Eric revealed to me issues I didn’t know I had with my body and now I have a goal to correct those issues. He supplied me with exercises that target spots on my body I never knew would be the cause of some of my pain in other areas. I highly recommend stopping by to see how you could improve your health through his practice.
