Cris is a highly skilled practitioner who knows the body and its physiology intimately--to an incredible degree. His arcane manipulations and movements were mysterious (to me), and I couldn't always feel a difference they made in the session, but after the session, and over time there was remarkable, even astonishing improvement--in my case, several overlapping hip issues. In 5 sessions and with the self-administered PT he showed me, over several months I went from being unable to at times walk comfortably, and unable to run or hike at all...to being able to do all three without limit, without trouble. It's all still a bit mysterious, but I recommend him, without reservation.

I have come to have the deepest respect for Cris! As a physical therapist, I want to specifically honor his expertise, his gentle humanity, and the impact his work is having on my life. I came in with a pretty long-standing difficulty in movement and pain in my neck and shoulder. That is shifting significantly, AND the pain in my foot that comes and goes and my R leg pain are all taking a more coherent and healing turn for the better. Could not recommend him more highly 💙

I see Cris for visceral manipulation. I have been dealing with severe back pain for most of the year, and for the last 6 months, I’ve tried monthly chiropractic, acupuncture, and massage treatments. However, after just one session with Cris, I felt drastic improvement. I’ve now completed 3 sessions, and with each visit, I continue to feel more relief. I am so thankful for his work.

Cris has been so wonderful to work with. I can't recommend him highly enough.
I had been dealing with chronic itching for the past five years which started after I had a c-section. I began working with Cris six months ago, and steadily over time my itching was getting less and less. I am so grateful to Cris for playing a major role in the resolution of my itching.The relief and calm I am now able to experience in the absence of itching is indescribable after years of suffering.
I was also surprised that there was such a strong emotional benefit from receiving his work. There were many times after a session where I had that ah-ha moment and spontaneously experienced and resolved emotions that I hadn't been aware were stuck and unprocessed.
Working with Cris has helped me to understand myself better and connect with who I am. It felt as if a blockage was removed, and what remained was just me.
If you are looking to make profound change in your life, I highly recommend working with Cris.

Rose is one of the most kind and skilled practitioners I’ve ever met. Her background in myofascial massage has been very helpful. I’ve been going to her for a couple years now, and the way she listens about how things are going and adjusts with various styles and tools (cupping, etc.) has been awesome. Highly recommend!

I've been seeing Cris for nearly 2 years now, not because his magic doesn't work, but because with each session a new layer of energetic muck gets brought to the surface, making it hard to stay away. Though I have seen countless body workers and healers of all types, Cris' techniques are different and more profound than anything I've ever experienced. I can confidently recommend Cris' services to anyone looking to explore the release of tensions and energies that store themselves in the body, especially those that bury themselves in places that other practitioners seem to miss, which Cris manages to find with intuitive grace and ease. Cris has a wonderful sense of humor, a calming presence and an uncanny ability to discover the root cause of an issue, even when the dots may not connect in logical ways. I'm grateful that Cris continues to educate himself and is willing to explore the unique ways the body, mind, heart and soul integrate, making sessions with him a unique and progressively healing experience.

Cris and Rose are both incredible. In my opinion, they are the best massage therapists in Eugene. Both are professional, kind, and very skilled. My wife and I have been seeing them for several years and do not hesitate to recommend them to everyone we know.

My husband and I completed a continuing education workshop with Cris, which was very informative. He is a very nice, easy going person, who made the class fun and interesting. We will definitely be taking more workshops with him!

Best body work I’ve ever had. I’ve been struggling with chronic health and nervous system issues for over a decade. When I left Cris’s session today, I felt more myself than I had in a very long time. He had a gracious presence, made space for me to express anything I needed to, and helped my body ground like it hasn’t in years. Cranial sacral felt something like “biofeedback” but with an intuitive human giving the feedback. So grateful for his gift!
