Eric J Maklan, Ph.D

Eric is a great professional, very talented and dedicated. I had a huge improvement with one session in my chronic neck pain and I haven’t felt it again since my consultation a month ago. I definitely recommend him.

Prior to meeting Eric, I had only imagined rolfing to be a painful process and never gave it a second thought. But after having issues with my back and elbow, I decided to give it a try.
Eric was thorough in his explanation of rolfing and his approach to the practice. He put me at ease and his treatment was actually enjoyable and enlightening. He was quickly able to assess my body and pinpoint issues that others had not. I walked away less fearful and more open minded, but didn’t really «feel» any different. However, two days later, I realized that I had gained a great deal of flexibility and motion, in that I could twist my body around while backing up my car, which I was unable to do prior to Eric’s treatment. If one treatment can change that much for me, I am ready to have him explore further. Who knows, I may be able to touch my toes again! I highly recommend Eric!

I have been working with Eric for just over a month, seeing him once a week. When I started, I could stand for only a few minutes before my sciatica pain became intolerable in my left leg. Today I am walking about 5000 steps a day and going to the grocery store is no longer something I am afraid to do because of the pain. I almost feel normal again!
Eric is wonderful about explaining the connections within the body and help me to visualize where my body feels right. When my body feels right, the pain is gone! Eric is extreamly knowledgeable and confident in his work. He makes you feel at ease and healed.

I had a fantastic result from my Rolfing session with Eric. My presenting issues were intense neck and shoulder discomfort. Eric and I discussed my personal health history and he was excellent at addressing my concerns and questions. I quickly realized that Eric is extremely intelligent and beyond fluent as a professional healer. He is also beautifully calm and grounded, which assured me that he would be careful and proficient in our Rolfing session. After thoughtful discussion and assessment, Eric began application of the Rolfing techniques ultimately bringing total relaxation and complete pain relief. There was no discomfort during the session. I have recommended Eric to several friends and I look forward to more appointments as the results have been lasting and invigorating!

Eric has an innate gift which he combines with tremendous skill. I shifted a chronic back issue and felt wonderful. I experienced an emotional healing in the process.

I am seeing Eric for rehabilitation of a PCL tear in my knee. I went in this week with difficulty with flexion/​extension and pain when walking down stairs. I am feeling soooo much better after just one session. When I got off the table, I was able to walk around with little pain. I measured my knee before and after the session. I walked in with about 1.0 cm of swelling and walked out with 0.5 cm of swelling. I appreciate that he is always checking in about the pressure he is using and is responsive. I’m looking forward to my session next week!
