I feel very fortunate to have found Matthew Berean – he is skilled at his craft, and a true healer. As an office worker, injury-prone runner, and yoga teacher, his unparalleled intuition for untangling knots and recommending yoga pose “homework” is a true blessing. While these physical pains were what first led to seek out a Certified Rolfer®, the focus of our sessions became resolving the roots of childhood trauma. Prior to reading books recommended by Matthew I hadn’t been aware of the link between events of long ago and present-day discomfort. Even after the first session, where the discussion centered around marathon and desk-work related injuries and pain, I felt not only physically lighter but a spiritual peace I’d not before experienced. As our sessions developed, I was pleased to notice that feeling of peace tended to resonate longer within my body between sessions. Regardless of whether the impetus is physical or emotional, I cannot highly enough recommend Matthew, and am sorry only that my work led to my leaving Chicago and not being able to see him as frequently.
