Better In Balance

This man is a god with magical hands and healing powers. He is super knowledgable and intelligent. He knows what he’s doing and always makes my body feel amazing !! He’s really easy to connect with and gives great advice (health and life). If you’re looking for someone who cares about your well being and you as a human, this is the rolfer for you.

Thomas is amazing!!! In my opinion he is an incredible healer, and I am so fortunate to have found him!!! My story, I pretty much walked into his office over a month and a half ago, unable to move my neck. Has anyone ever felt like their head was resting on a spike??? I HAVE!!!
My background, average health, I injured my foot badly and was put in a walking cast last September. in that time I made a huge move to Denver (from Arizona) while in a walking cast. Meaning, unpacking boxes while I hobbled around like a little curmudgeonly hobbit, the whole time, trying to push the pain out of my mind. In hindsight the cast and move wasn’t half bad. What made it worse was in December… The day I got out of the walking cast… I was sideswiped on the freeway doing 70 mph (not my fault). After a mild case of whiplash immediately following the accident, and $ 7000.00 in repairs to my car, I thought I was good to go. Little did I know my journey in pain was just beginning.
About a month after the accident, I thought I had cracked ribs, my entire right side was locked up and I was frequently taking «pain days» after a few days of light activity. Needless to say I was a mess physically. I started seeing a really great chiropractor in February. And while she was amazing and I saw a great amount of improvement… After a few months, I seemed to have hit a ceiling of progress when it came to my chiropractic appointments. Thats when my chiropractor recommended supplementing my sessions with Rolfing. She is genius!!!
After a quick Unilocal search I found Thomas!!! And I couldn’t be happier with the amount of progress we have made in such a short amount of time. My initial session was so relaxing and amazing. And while Thomas had a great desire to get me on the road to recovery with his practice, he flat out denied treating me until I addressed some other medical issues that were inhibiting my recovery. Yes, he flat out REFUSED to see me until I got my other issues under control. Said he didn’t want to be stealing my money, because any work on my body would be useless until my body was more balanced internally.
I’ve only seen him a handful of times, but I can firmly attest that he does amazing work. When I first walked into his office I was a solid 9 on the scale of pain. Couldn’t even get out of bed without tears. And in the short amount of time, following his guidance with health, nutrition, home exercises and only about 4 appointments, I’d say I’m radiating at a dull 2. Which is huge considering I’ve been in chronic pain since late Sept of last year. I seriously don’t know what I’d do without his skills, guidance and award winning personality. Over the years, I’ve tried rolfing, strictly out of indulgence, but finding Thomas was out of necessity. I truly don’t know where I’d be if I hadn’t stumbled across him on Unilocal.Probably in bed with another «pain day’… Oh yeah… I haven’t needed one of those in weeks!!! Which is a big deal considering I’ve been needing weekly, at minimum, «pain days’ for almost a year straight. And I haven’t seen my chiropractor in a month. Just Thomas!!!
Added bonus, his sessions are like an intense massage. I’ve almost fallen asleep on his table. And not only is my pain diminishing, but my posture continues to improve with each week that goes by. And Thomas wants to get my pain down to a ZERO!!! That would be heaven!!! Even prior to the accidents, this is a concept that I haven’t been able to envision in years!!!
Thomas definitely has a genuine care over his clients. He’s attentive, understanding of pain, runs with integrity, is professional and always plays killer music when you’re on the table!!!

Thomas is the man! (6 Stars) He is super knowledgeable about the human body and has the ability to put things back into harmony. (He also has great tips about nutrition as well)
I am active in a lot of sports. [Some may say «accident prone”]
I have been going to THOMAS for over a year, and can say that he is the reason I am back to my game so quickly. Give him a try and you will see why I am writing this!!!
«You are going to like the way you look. I guarantee it» haha
Thomas: (913) 908.7260

Tom knows his stuff! From bones to organs to muscles… he knows the drill. He’s helped me with posture, relaxation, pain and more. He’s definitely a committed, experienced, and knowledgeable practitioner. And no, Rolfing does not hurt! I highly recommend him…“no bones about it”…

Thomas is one of the best in Denver. His passion for helping others and his knowledge of both nutrition and body movement/​mechanics adds to his outstanding approach in relieving acute pain, as well as finding lasting solutions to those chronic problems that keep returning. I just had a session with him today about nutrition. Wow! What an eye opener. His insights and explanations launched me into action right away. My digestion system feels happier tonight after adding some of his doable suggestions.

I started seeing Thomas due to a number of issues causing me some serious and constant pain. He is amazing to work with, combining a holistic understanding of the many contributions to your situation; everything from posture, flexibility, exercise (or lack thereof) to nutrition and stress levels, etc. During our discussions, he not only gave me things to work on my own, but gave me advice on some things I was working on with other practitioners (chiropractor, phys therapist), to make my work with them more productive as well. I feel great after our sessions, and I feel like I have come a long way since seeing him for the first time– I’m in much better health, taking less prescription pharmaceuticals, and not in constant daily pain (a HUGE plus). His easy-​going personality and willingness to look outside the box and try different solutions are a perfect combination – when most wanted me to just take another pill, Thomas suggested changes that are really making a difference. Go see him!

I found Thomas on Unilocal,and I am so glad I did! He has a wealth of knowledge, about everything from body work and movement, to nutrition, to training. He explains everything that is going on in a way that I can understand, and is very willing to answer any questions I have. I have been having rolfing done for over a year now, and after coming to Thomas, I still learned new information about my body and how I am impacting it through my movements/​workouts. I came to him with issues in my shoulder area, but didn’t realize it could be connected to my hips, ankles, or even nutrition. Thomas was very supportive of the emotional toll my injury was taking on me, and was very encouraging when I felt overwhelmed. He was very quick to respond to emails, and is willing to make his schedule work with yours. Thomas is great and I would highly recommend him to anyone!

I have worked with many body workers– chiropractors, rolfers, massage therapists, etc. Thomas is one of the best. He combines expert knowledge ot the mechanics of the body with an intuition for what is needed by the individual most at the moment of the appointment. Rolfers are sometimes known for having a no pain no gain philosophy, but I certainly had the opposite experience with Thomas. After each appointment my body functioned better and I learned something new about the way I had been inhabiting it. I would recommend his work to anyone.

Thomas is great. I have seen another rolfer who helped me quite a bit, but I didn’t get from her why my posture is like it is. Thomas took the time to make sure I understood how one misalignment can have a cascading affect on the whole body. I look forward to working with him more and I would definitely recommend him.

I highly recommend Better In Balance, Thomas is a highly skilled practitioner and I always get great results.
Initially I didn’t know what rolfing was andI thought I would try it, I was fortunate enough to find Thomas. I didn’t know what to expect and Thomas helped me to understand that rolfing is a body realignment technique. I now prefer rolfing over massage and/​or chiropracty, I get great results with Thomas. When we first met he talked about the best approach being having him do 10 sessions to work my body into shape but we started out with just a few visits for me to see if this was something for me. After the 2^nd treatment I knew this was for me and was on board for the 10 session regimen and I am so glad I did. I am in construction and a physically active «older» person, so I have a lot of issues to be worked on.
I found Thomas’ ability to know how to proceed with his work uncanny in that he knows where to go in your body to get the results needed. I went in one evening with a slight neck injury I suffered at the beginning of the day. I had forgotten to tell him about it, but when he was assessing where my body was at he chose to start on my neck and I knew right then he knew his way around each individual’s body by using the skills he possesses.
I have completed my 10 session set and now go back for maintenance. Every time I go I feel that much better in my body. Thomas has really helped me with my shoulder issues (one rotator cuff, the other separated at a younger age), whiplash in my neck, TMJ (which sometimes you realize how badly it is affecting you until he releases your jaw), back and leg issues and others. I am enjoying a higher quality of life directly due to the work Thomas does for me. I couldn’t be happier, it’s a great modality performed by a master in technique and diagnostics. Thomas is also one of the most pleasant people I know, which is a bonus in a health care practitioner. I highly recommend him.

Thomas rolfs like nobody’s business! I run, rock climb, work out, and do yoga. I have spent a lot of time working on myself and my body, and I thought my posture was near perfect. He has shown me all sorts of little misalignments I wasn’t aware of that have led to a cascading pattern of problems. As a web designer, I’m in front of a computer many hours a day, and I have developed back pain for which I have seen a physical therapist, pilates master, and countless masseuses. Thomas was able to immediately pinpoint problem areas on the body and clearly explain the most effective path to recovery, through a combination of body work, awareness, and simple exercises. His knowledge is vast, his manner is friendly, and his work is professional. I recommend him to my friends.

I have been in and out of various physical therapy, massage, and chiropractor offices over the years due to old dance injuries. I have to say that rolfing blew all of them out of the water! Thomas was able to accomplish more in one session than a year of other appointments ever did. I came in with upper back and shoulder pain and walked out with a whole new posture. It was amazing! I’ve been recommending Thomas and the technique he practices to everyone I know. He has a welcoming office and personality that made me feel at ease. He was also really open to discussing the issues he was finding in my back and giving me practical advice on how to relieve and/​or prevent pain in my day-​to-​day routines. Thanks for two awesome sessions! Looking forward to going back soon!

Thomas was my first introduction to rolfing! I had heard about it for many years but was never sure about committing to the ten series as I didn’t completely understand the philosophy behind the work. After having the first session with him I realized, what a profound modality! I felt myself unraveling years and years of patterns that were hindering my body’s ability to feel full and vibrant. Sessions with him followed by his guidance for supportive exercises to do at home and I felt like a new human being in just weeks. I recommend Thomas and his brilliant work 100%!

I found better in balance through a groupon and decided to try it since I was having a lot of pain on my knees. Tom has really helped me by not only working hands on at very tight muscle spots but with advice on posture, breathing and stretching as well as nutrition. He has worked with my body as a whole.

Thomas is absolutely fabulous! I came to Thomas via a groupon deal and never tried rolfing before. I had tried chiropractic and massage and nothing ever helped my SI joint issues. After the first session I felt amazing. I have been seeing Thomas ever since. Thomas is very good at finding the underlying issues and takes his time to understand your body. He also gave me great exercises that helped with my posture, walking and standing correctly, etc. Last summer I broke my toe and had a bad bone contusion. Thomas helped me get my foot back on track. I am still amazed after each visit, how wonderful I feel after seeing Thomas. Whether it is my back, my feet, my arms or my neck, Thomas always knows what needs to be done and I feel so much better after seeing him. I highly recommend him to anyone!

I found Thomas through a Groupon deal because I was really struggling with pain in my legs, knees and back and wanted to try something else. I had several appointments with Thomas, the first was a good consultation with body work. He gave me some great tips on posture when walking, bending, stretching and working out. Right away I noticed a difference in my daily activities using these techniques. The next sessions were great for in depth work for different parts of my body.
Rolfing itself is good for finding key points that effect they way you walk or move. Thomas was great at hitting the right points and finding areas that you wouldn’t imagine had anything to do with some of the pain you are feeling. I only did 3 sessions but I thought Thomas was super knowledgeable on everything from body movement to nutrition. He is super easy to talk to and work with. He can really help your body to align better.
When my wedding is over and I’m not trying to save every penny for it I will go back to Thomas for more body work!

I tore my rotator cuff in high school. Ten years later I was still experiencing daily pain. I had tried a variety of other therapy treatments over the years, getting some temporary relief but my shoulder still wasn’t right.
Then I met Tom…
I did the Rolfing 10 series… it’s a whole body education.
I am now pain free. (I have been pain free for over a year.)
My shoulder functions as it did before the injury.
Did I mention… I’m pain free?
I check in every now and then for an adjustment, just to keep on track and I always feel refreshed and refocused.
Make an appointment with Tom, it will change your life!

I was referred to Thomas by my chiropractor as I have been suffering from chronic pain for 7+ years. I was a little hesitant as I had seen another rolfer for a full ten series and didn’t see much benefit. After a single session and visit back to my chiropractor, she said I had responded VERY well and she could tell a HUGE difference. I completed the ten series and it’s made quite a difference. I still have some pain but it’s mainly due to my poor posture and tension/​stress I hold in my body that I continue to work on. Thomas provides a space for healing not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. He’s also a joy to be around so it’s a win win no matter what=0)

I immediately felt a difference in my posture after only one session with Tom. I even felt lighter on my feet and more agile when I ran the next day. I only wish he lived in New Orleans!

I have been seeing Thomas for over two years and I highly recommend him.
The first time I went in, it was curiosity. I wanted to experience a rolfing ’10 series’ to see what it could do for some chronic injuries and for athletic performance. I was surprised that the range of therapy went well beyond what I had hoped for. My posture began to change. My athletic endeavors became reality. In addition, Thomas was able to help me through a devastating ankle injury, first by supporting the healing process, decreasing my pain, and then realigning and retraining my body how to move. Thankfully I was already working with Thomas and we were able to get right to work after the injury happened. My ankle would be nowhere close to the strength and function it is now if I hadn’t had the attention through the phases of healing.
Thomas was also very supportive during a period of some life trauma. I am thankful for his intuition on seeing beyond my physical injuries, and he tailored his work to somehow help address my deeper needs. I walked away from those sessions feeling revived and oddly supported. Thomas truly embodies the rolfers ideology of holistically supporting a client through change, growth and recovery.
I think injuries and traumas are tough and people aren’t always ready to deal with them. They hold you back and sometimes it’s just easier to live with pain. When you’re ready though, this is the place to be.
It might just change your life.
