"You were spectacular at teaching some old dogs some new tricks so we will be new dogs again! Loved every minute of it. Wish it would have been a two day course so I could inhale some more of your tips and tricks!”

About the Workshops
“Hidden Gems" Addressing the Most Commonly Overlooked Muscles of the Body
This workshop explores techniques for the “Diamonds and Pearls.” Commonly overlooked, but extremely important muscles of the body. Whether they are hidden beneath other well-known muscles or in areas therapists often avoid, these muscles often cause pain and dysfunction that clients experience in other areas of the body. We will explore muscles of the anterior neck, anterior torso, shoulder girdle, deep hip flexors, and adductors. You will leave with a dynamic package of NEW techniques that will enliven your massage practice!
​

ADVANCED: “No Thumbs” Deep Tissue Techniques - Upper Body

"Shout out to Eric for facilitating such an excellent and fun two-day training for our Relache Spa team. He focused on culture, team building, and personal growth and awareness for our entire team as well as No Thumbs Deep Tissue techniques for our new and seasoned licensed massage therapists. Our team was able to think outside the box, develop new skills, and new respect for one another. I am extremely grateful Gaylord Rockies Leadership approved this training and investment in our Spa Team Stars. Eric, you are one of a kind. Thank you for the blessing of knowledge."
