Eric Fair-Layman is a massage therapist dedicated to helping people correct posture, reduce stubborn pain, restore mobility, and improve athletic performance.  He is also a devoted single father to two teenagers, when not massaging.  He offers Deep Tissue Massage (in a massage table), mat massage with resistance stretches (Posture & Pain Relief Sessions), and Rebirthing Breathwork.  

 

• Posture and Pain Relief

Eric has helped hundreds of people reduce pain and tension caused by posture-related issues. By working on key muscle groups and incorporating resistance stretching on a mat, you will leave standing taller and feeling great in your body, even if you have limited range of motion. The effects of a Posture and Pain Relief session last longer than traditional massage because Eric focuses on the root cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. In fact, most clients who engage for several sessions and do the work at home notice a moving forward progress, rather than a staving off of ailments.  Posture correction speeds up the recovery process after injury, slows the effects of age-related mobility issues, and improves athletic performance by increasing your body’s efficiency. He will teach you to stretch with resistance on your own and make a simple plan to restore balance in your body for lasting results.

• Rebirthing Breathwork

This fast-paced breathing rhythm quickly puts the brain (and body) into an alpha wave state to help resolve trauma and leave the client in a deeply relaxed state by the end of the session.  Eric's Rebirthing Breathwork sessions are much more gentle with shorter breathing cycles than most Rebirthers offer.

 

• Traditional deep tissue massage

Sometimes, you just need a good full body massage to relax and leave your day behind. However, Eric never forgets his insights around posture and works to leave you standing straighter and pain-free, no matter what type of massage you choose.  (Choose deep tissue when booking).  

 

MVA & Workers Comp insurance is accepted (if you were in an auto or work-related injury).  

 

Eric has been a licensed massage therapist (OR # 19568) since 2012. He was born with a mild form of cerebral palsy, which has helped him understand bodies with limited ranges of motion and other special needs. He has used the techniques from Posture and Pain Relief to transform his own body and be mostly pain free as he enters his 50s, despite this handicap.
