Services include:
Advanced Muscle Reconditioning (AMR) – Simple. Complex. Sublime. AMR is a targeted muscle massage therapy technique. In reality, muscle imbalance, weakness, injury or just plain aging can cause muscle fibers to “clump” or stick together like cooked spaghetti. When the muscle fibers clump, muscles around the area go into an underlying reactive spasm. This specific technique “de-clumps” or cleans the muscle fibers, producing profound results throughout the body. There is simply nothing like it.
The Deep Tissue — Slowing down to seriously work the layers of connective tissue and muscle in the body, whether superficially or deeply, resulting in the ultimate therapeutic massage. This type of massage is not just about pressure but rather the therapist works more deeply with his thinking, listening, and whole self to facilitate true therapeutic transformation that lasts.
Reiki — A wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you and the therapist. Treating the whole person including the body, emotions, mind and spirit. Creating many beneficial effects that include healing, relaxation, feelings of peace, serenity and well-being. Wear comfortable clothing for this session.
Reiki Massage – Erik’s own original unique creation that combines both Reiki and Massage in one session. Treating the mind, body and spirit in an unparalleled relaxing, transformative experience.
Advanced Sports Therapeutics - Working with athletes of all levels to treat sports related injuries. Finding the source of the injury and creating a treatment plan (integrating all modalities) necessary to restore range of motion, strength and fluid movement; allowing athletes to return to the top of their game.
Advanced Muscle Release Technique – A unique therapy that combines muscle compression, extension, movement and breathing executed in a fluid, rhythmic way that provides the therapist with the ability to achieve results beyond the scope of others. With this technique muscles are lengthened, muscle memory is restored and relief from pain starts immediately.
Myofascial Release Therapy — Inducing a state of deep relaxation and calmness through gentle, sustained pressure, allows the therapist to break down barriers in the body, reaching deeper layers of connective tissue to help eliminate pain and restrictions.
Myoskeletal Alignment Therapy — Brings together the most advanced therapeutic strategies to relieve and ultimately correct patterns in the body that lead to pain and dysfunction. With Myoskeletal Alignment therapy, clients can be free from pain, avoiding invasive surgery, or toxic pain medications.
Equine Therapy, The Masterson Method – Integrated, multi-modality method of equine massage. A unique, interactive method of equine massage in which you learn to recognize and use the responses of the horse from your touch to find and release accumulated tension in the key junctions of the body that most affect performance. In contrast to most traditional modalities, it enables the horse to actively participate in the process of releasing tension. It is something you do with the horse, rather than to the horse. This participation and interaction are what makes the method fascinating.
Canine Therapy – Integrated multi-modality method of canine therapy for any dog who experiences stress, anxiety, discomfort, pain, injury, or the effects of aging and life.
