Testimonials
“Eric listens to you, your stories, and your body. Tell him everything, especially about scars and injuries, emotional injuries even and trauma, because he will know how to make sense of it and what to do about it. ”
I cannot recommend Cassie or Eric enough! I have worked with both of them on numerous occasions to treat sports ailments and they have done an amazing job helping me with not only the injury, but also the underlying causes through Neurokinetic Therapy. Through the exercises they've provided and the breath work Cassie has taught me, my mental, emotional and physical health have all greatly improved. I could not be happier with the results I've seen!

I have been a trainer for 10+ years, an actor, and dancer and movement professional my entire life. I knew something was missing and I needed someone really skilled, out of the box and really intuitive! Eric is that guy! I have seen many bodyworkers through out my career and no one paid attention to my left foot, a place where I had a simple sprain that had ended up changing the entire chain up the leg and affecting all the way up to my neck on the right side.

Cannot say enough good things about Eric! For the past few years I have struggled with aches and pains that just kept getting worse and worse. After going to multiple physical therapists and not getting the help I needed, I came to Eric in tears just wanting to get back on track. I was truly miserable. He has been the ONLY one that has been able to help me. He's patient, professional, actually LISTENS to you, and works with you to get to the bottom of what's causing pain and discomfort. A lot of times it can be scar tissue, old injuries, etc. You might even be surprised to know that the root cause of your pain is actually a physical manifestation of past emotional trauma - it's wild how connected the mind and body are. He does a great job explaining what's going on and I feel like he's always obtaining new skills/certifications to master his craft. Eric is a rare species, he is truly talented and I'm so grateful to have found him. Definitely go see him!

I have the BEST physical therapist: Dr. Cassie. I injured my right shoulder from doing aerial silks. I tried structural integration, chiropractic & active release technique & none helped with the chronic pain. Jan 21, I found Dr. Cassie. After a few sessions, she was able to diagnose that biceps tendonitis was the culprit. She did a technique that put my biceps tendon back into the groove where it’s supposed to be. Once she was able to push the biceps in place, the pain reduced by 95%.

Eric is a truly gifted practitioner of the healing arts and my session with him is the definition of time and money well spent.
I sought Eric out because I was searching for Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) practitioners. I had a great experience several years ago with a personal trainer who had done the Nueorkinetic Therapy Level 1 training. If you've never done or heard of NKT, I'll say that doing NKT before lifting weights I could literally make more progress in 15 minutes in my form, flexibility, and strength, then I could in 15 weeks of traditional physical therapy. (You know, that thing where you stretch for 40 minutes, go home with a few exercises, and make progress at a snail's pace? Yeah, that is NOT the kind of therapy you get with Eric!) When I saw that Eric was a Physical Therapist who was certified through Level 3 NKT, I knew I wanted to work with him.
What I didn't know is that his DPT degree + NKT training only scratched the surface of the tools he brings together to treat his clients. He truly takes a holistic view that allows him to get to the physical and emotional root causes of pain and imbalance. In our session he took into consideration how various parts of my nervous system were causing certain muscles to be overactive, and others totally disengaged, and quickly brought them back into balance, and got me out of pain!
Eric listens carefully and with an open mind, and has a deep and intuitive grasp of what is going on with his client's minds and bodies. He explains what he is doing each step of the way which I find very empowering because I don't just want a doctor or therapist to fix me - I want to learn about my body and how I can better listen to and maintain it as part of my healing process. For that reason, I felt not only stronger and lighter after my session, with my back pain and tension gone, but I also felt more empowered to continue to care for my health going forward.
Finally, I'll say that I have engaged lots of modalities over the years for mind and body healing and wellness - exercise, meditation, chanting, seeing a physical therapist, yoga, etc. What is great about working with Eric is that if I am meditating or stretching at home, each one of those is kind of like playing a single instrument somewhat decently. Working with Eric is like an accomplished conductor getting the whole symphony playing at once. So I will close this reiterating what I said up top: Eric is a truly gifted practitioner of the healing arts and my session with him is the definition of time and money well spent.

Eric was amazing. He takes the time to get to know you and what's going on which is everything. in one session he was able to get my shoulder to function properly. which has been bothering me for over a year in spite of everything else I have tried. He really knows his stuff.

If you're looking to work with gifted healers who are intuitive, empathetic, caring, and deep listeners who are committed to your sustained healing journey and process, Walz Wellness is the best choice. I've personally worked with Cassie over the past few years. I have a herniated disc & nerve damage, and through our sessions, I've noticed profound changes and improvements in my body, and Cassie has inspired a growing sense of confidence and empowerment in my body and journey. She's an incredibly gifted healer and I can't say enough kind words about both Cassie and Eric.

Eric is simply extraordinary! I've been working with him for over two years after being in severe pain and told I need a major back and neck surgery. After his treatments, I'm pain free and walking five miles a day. He's extremely kind, personable and frankly a miracle worker! I couldn't be more grateful.
