    My back was spazzing up and I was impressed by the reviews and fast availability. My mistake. He talked and talked and talked, and frequently corrected me tartly for not having some part of my body in the proper place. For example, he told me to tense my bicep (I'm there for lower back which he has not yet addressed) so I "made a muscle". He said "I didn't ask you to tense your whole arm, just your bicep." Which was true so I tried again but it wasn't intuitive to flex one muscle without others, so I did it wrong again. He then grabbed my wrist and bent my arm and said "see?" Oh, not flexed like I thought. I didn't know. This went on and on -- basically he was showing me I involved too many muscles because I was tense but it was like trial and error with no focus on my back pain. Finally, 55 minutes in he gets to my problem area and ultimately had to go 5 minutes overtime (making a to-do about resetting some sort of timer) and telling me that other practitioners only do 50 minutes. Maybe so, I thought, but they probably also give you treatment on the problem area and not a game of really hard (for me) "Simon says" until 55 minutes have passed. Anyway, bad fit for me who had an acute issue and needed treatment fast.

    Enrico is a HEALER. He treated me for: - post concussive syndrome -whiplash -spasticity - central nervous system problems I had a brain injury meaning I was connected with a lot of specialists, and I didn't start getting better until I visited Enrico. I am almost fully recovered having seen Enrico for 7 sessions. I wish everybody with a concussion or whiplash could get the chance to visit him. A million stars for communicative, personal manual therapy for injury.

    I have been to many massage therapists, and Enrico is a true healer. My body felt completely different after my first visit. Chronic tension was relieved, for what feels like the first time in some spots. I will definitely go back and make it part of my ongoing health care.
