Helping People
You are a massage or manual therapist. You are in the business of helping people. If you are like most therapists I have met over the years, then you probably feel frustrated and uncertain about pain science and how this relates to your practice.
Understanding Evidence
Applying research knowledge to clinical practice is tough. Today, with all the social media platforms and numerous online discussion groups, it’s hard to keep up with the flow of information and even more difficult to know what to pay attention to.
Toolbox Approach
Many therapists believe that to be a better clinician, to obtain more knowledge, and to become an evidence based therapist they have to learn all the techniques, become better at assessments, learn complex treatment protocols or memorize more anatomy.
YOU WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERING
Your stellar track-record as a therapist PROVES that you are more than capable of that goal. You KNOW you are here to change lives for the better.
However, you sometimes question your knowledge and abilities when you treat those chronic pain patient's who simply won't get better . . .
Any of these apply to you?
- You constantly feel like you need to take just one more course, so you keep attending courses, learning and refining various hands on and assessment techniques.
- You are overwhelmed by all the research and discussions you see on social media, and you feel uncertain about what this all means and how to apply it to your clinic.
- You are fearful of changing your practice, because you don’t know how your patients are going to react if you start communicating and treating differently.
- You feel rushed and pressured, never having enough time to take all the courses you are interested in, read articles, or discuss treatment options with your colleagues.
Did you answer yes to one of the questions above?
Don't worry, it is not your fault. This happens with everyone.
This is what I have constantly been told over the past 9 years teaching my courses to massage therapists, physiotherapists, osteopathic practitioners, occupational therapists, and numerous other healthcare professionals across North America and the United Kingdom.
Nobody can be the best at everything, not me and not you. But, we can strive to keep learning with the desire to be the best evidence informed therapist possible.
I want you to become the best version of yourself!
And, I am determined to help you on your journey.

Eric's courses are practical, relevant and stimulating. I think all health care practitioners should be required to update their knowledge and take part in courses like his. Eric’s courses provide up to date, evidence based research and force you to think about the bigger picture contributing to one’s health, rather than just looking from a physiological standpoint. I have taken 3 of Eric’s courses already, and I intend on taking more, as I learn and grow as a practitioner each and every time! Take one of Eric’s courses and I promise, you will not regret it!
