Ciara Dipple

Erin is absolutely amazing! I have been doing yoga with her for 5 months going on 6. She is so kind and makes everything fun, interesting, and informative. She always tries to work with your schedule and hers for the best times to make an appointment. She’s very knowledgeable and wants to help you as much as possible. One of the best yoga instructors out there! If I were you, I would most definitely give her a try out for yoga!

Jamie Hollifield

Erin is amazing! Not only is she an amazing massage therapist, she is also an amazing human being. I’ve been coming to her for several years now after trying many others and her massages whether Thai or table never disappoint. She is an incredible listener and will modify her massage to the needs of her clients I cannot recommend her enough!

Megan Cartier

Erin offers a highly personalized Thai massage experience. She has a strong knowledge of anatomy and has a deep commitment to healing. I am currently training for the Asheville half marathon and have been going to see Erin on a regular basis in order to be pain and injury free. So far, so good 😊

Sarah Strouse

My partner and I met Erin when looking for a new experience while in Asheville on vacation. She spent 2.5 hours with us, teaching us new movements through Thai massage, new touch techniques, and new ways to look at pain management. High recommend for this one-of-a-kind couple’s experience.

Rosemary Holbrook

Three words to sum up the experience: care, cleanliness, and healing! I’m so very glad I tried out receiving a Thai massage from Erin. She is so knowledgeable about what she does, and her extreme care for her clients and passion for what she does shines through in her work. I have received table massages regularly for a while, and I’m so glad I trusted in Erin to try out receiving Thai massage. A couple days later, I’m walking taller and my hip pain has really subsided. Not only was the Thai massage extremely relaxing, but I feel so much better in my body and my posture afterwords than I have in YEARS! I’ve been working on correcting residual posture issues from an old injury for a while, and Erin helped me straighten my spine and overall feel more comfortable in my body in a way that was so gentle, she made it look and feel easy! It was so extremely healing! I cannot overstate what a great healer Erin is. Feeling comfortable and at ease in my own body is the greatest gift there is. The studio is also of the utmost cleanliness, and Erin has very intentionally crafted a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. She really thinks of everything! All around I feel very safe in Erin’s hands.

Erin is in a league of her own with the knowledge and experience of Thai massage and how to apply it to the human body of everyday athletes and normal people alike. I have visited her off and on for a couple of years now and just saw her for the first time since COVID. Her studio is completely clean and made me feel very safe with her sanitary procedures. I would recommend her to anyone that wants extensive body work to help their overall performance with sports or the everyday person who just wants a relaxing and soothing massage. Keep it up and good luck! See you soon!

Rosalind Brenner

Erin is an angel, here to spread good energy and healing of mind, body and spirit. I had yoga sessions and Thai massages with Erin. I went to her at a friend's recommendation because I am working on making progress healing from a bike accident and surgery. She kindly and brilliantly helped me stretch and relax in the Yoga sessions. Her Thai massage was so filled with love and caring as well as a font of experience, gentle and and intelligent touch, that I floated out of her office and continued to feel really good. Can't wait to get back to Asheville to do more body work with Erin. She's the best!

Mike Friedman

Erin is absolutely wonderful to work with. Her skill and her knowledge base are only second to her compassion and dedication to Healing. I had scheduled a 2 hour Thai massage and did not really know what to expect. The amount of relief that she gave my neck and back is incredible. I'm looking forward to my next session and my opportunity to work with her further towards my goals of achieving greater flexibility and overall health. Erin is a very kind and compassionate person, very personable, and easy to work with. I am certain that her skills will provide the results I'm looking for! I could not recommend her more strongly. Thank you Erin!

Danielle Maughon

Erin is the most intuitive and talented massage therapist I have ever experienced! That‘s why I've been going to Erin for over seven years now. Every time I receive a Thai Massage from Erin, I am blown away by the advanced movement and stretching she incorporates into the session — it's fluid, healing and simply magical. Her technique is advanced, her strength/firm pressure is unparalleled and her dedication to caring about YOU and your health, as a person, is unwavering. She has an in-depth understanding of anatomy and physiology that allows you to truly benefit from very second of the massage. As a climber/athlete, I really value Erin‘s work because she is very insightful as to what muscles you are actually using in your specified sport. She has excellent technique for Thai and Table Massage and always follows up with you to see how you are feeling post-massage. Her extensive background in yoga and fitness make her the perfect massage therapist (and yoga teacher)! Make an appointment with her, you won't regret it! I think I'll make one now:)

Anais Strickling

2 hours of bliss. My body felt like it was receiving a big warm hug! I'm a physical therapist and former massage therapist and having received many sessions of bodywork in my life I can say with absolute confidence that this was hands down one of the best body work experiences I've ever had. Erin is really a master at her craft. She is intuitive and knowledgeable about the human body. If you've never experienced a Thai massage before you don't know what you are missing! I can't wait until my next appointment!

Janet Horn-Miller

AMAZING THAI MASSAGE! Wow! I own a Yoga Wellness Center & have access to some of best massage therapists around- (and I am very picky) - but I continue to travel to see Erin even though I live 75 miles away. I trust her with my various injuries and because she is so knowledgeable and intuitive, I usually have major realizations about my alignment and where or why I hold tension in my body while she is working on me. I can let go and trust her completely! She is very professional, safe, clean, respectful and caring. She creates and provides a special atmosphere to allow for complete relaxation. Her Thai Massage experience is a real treat for myself: physically, mentally and spiritually.

Austin Tyler

Erin caters each session to exactly what I need. She is a true expert in this field and has a unique skill set that combines Thai Massage, Yoga and overall body awareness. She sends me home with additional work that keeps me feeling healthy in between sessions. The experience is much more than a massage and I can't recommend anyone else more in this field.

Circle Acupuncture & Wellness Clinic

I have received Thai massage for over 20 years and Erin Marie Porter with Flow Bodyworks is by far the best! She is a uniquely skilled and gifted Thai massage therapist with a warm and welcoming practice space. I appreciate her dynamic stretching and compression techniques. After receiving Thai massage from Erin, I felt completely relaxed with improved flexibility and range of motion. She is an outstanding practitioner with many years of experience. I walked away from my massage with no muscle tension anywhere in my body. I highly recommend her services.

Arnaldo Alvarez

Erin has completely changed and transformed the way I perceive my own body's movements and mechanics to effectively live my life. As a gym owner, and competitive athlete, I cannot recommend her Thai massages enough to ANYONE who wants to feel energized, relaxed, and ready to take on the day. The major difference between Thai and traditional table Swedish massage is the deep stretches integrated with the deep tissue body work. It will absolutely change your life. On top of this, she takes great care in educating you on her practice, and makes you feel comfortable from the minute you walk through the door. Extremely kind, professional, and communicative throughout the whole process. So glad I have added this to my maintenance routine!

Amy

BEST massage I've ever received! Erin is a gifted healer and a terrific communicator. We have worked together now four times and I plan to start seeing her every other week. The treatments have a lasting effect and her technique is superb. She immediately sets you at ease, is very mindful about COVID, and is really pleasant to be with. I highly recommend her.

Lyndi Hewitt

Erin introduced me to Thai massage a few years ago and I'm deeply grateful for the healing and transformation it has brought to my life. Particularly when my body is out of balance due to chronic stress or injuries, sessions with Erin are now an essential intervention. Not only does she bring vast knowledge and years of experience to her work, but also remarkable intuition and wisdom that can't be replicated elsewhere. As a bonus, her space is beautiful and calming. Clients leave feeling renewed, at peace, and more educated about their bodies. While visiting a chiropractor, acupuncturist, yoga class, energy healer, etc. may have positive results, I've come to feel that Thai massage accomplishes in a truly holistic manner what other healing modalities cannot. A session with Erin is an investment in your health that you won't regret.

"Fixed"! Thai massage may not be new...but it's the Western world's best kept secret. I have been receiving bodywork treatment for 25 years. Erin is the most professional and effective therapist I have ever had. Today is a new day for me moving forward. As a former athlete and runner, the work and time spent with Erin is beyond words. I really didn't think it would be so easy but at 50, I was completely confident and trusting in her work. I could go on but you must give it a try if you suffer from lower back or issues anywhere in your body. She is just amazing! Trust her and try it.

Dr Alexander Krasne DMD

I was very lucky to be referred to Erin when we moved to Asheville. She is exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, and diligent in her body work. She spends a lot of time going over her process and areas to work on. Her Thai massages provide a stronger and deeper massage which is what I was looking for to help with back pain associated with my professional duties. I highly recommend Erin for anyone looking for quality massage therapy in the area!

Brian Ross

Erin is a wonderful therapist. She is one on the few and I think the best Thai Massage therapist in Asheville. I have been going to her for 2 years. Thai massage may be new to many people and Erin takes the time to describe the process and listens to what will work best for you and your body needs. She is also Covid compliant in so many ways - it makes the entire experience a safe and relaxing one. I can’t say enough good things about Erin.

Raphael Kellman

Erin was one of the most skilled, intuitive, purposeful, intentional and wonderful massage therapists I have ever had the fortune of working with! For many years I had been a body worker myself, so I consider myself rather choosey with who I think is exceptional, and Erin is! In addition to her outstanding knowledge of the human body, and relaxing yet deep work, she is completely present when she is with you, as if you are the most important body she has ever worked on! She clearly loves what she does, and you can feel this with each of her strokes. Lastly, Erin encompasses true sprit, and is kind and caring and truly wants to get to know you, and you feel this from the minute you walk in the door. Additionally, I so appreciated when I wanted to ask her questions about her life while she was working on me, she gently redirected me, encouraging me to quiet my mind and take in all of the benefits of the massage experience (I needed her to say that!). I give my massage the highest rating there is to give, as Erin, as a person and as a therapist, is worthy of this. Go and experience Erin's work! Blessings, Jennifer

Laura Pate

Erin was amazing! She asked great questions prior to the session and adjusted to my individual goals and needs. The session itself was expertly and professionally conducted. I would highly recommend her as a practitioner!

Crystalign Chiropractic

Erin's bodywork is amazing! Her calm, nurturing, strong hands and heart made me feel very comfortable. Thai foot reflexology combined with a thorough full body masage and gentle stretching allowed my muscles to totally relax, leaving me feeling balanced and pain free by the end of our session. Thank you, Erin!

Jenny Roberts

My first ✨ Thai Massage! Totally relaxing ❤️ Knowledgeable + caring therapist On my first visit to Flow Bodyworks, Erin helped me address pain in my neck. I learned sooo much about my body and got so many tips on different healing modalities and exercises to try outside the office as well. I’ve had a second visit since where I was able to drop in even further into a healing space and receive relief for tension in my body. Erin is extremely good at what she does! Her Thai massages are held in a warm comfortable cushion on the ground that becomes your own personal stretching pillow for 2 hours! It’s the absolute best having someone stretch your body and guide you to relax with no effort! As someone who spends a lot of time behind the computer for work as a videographer, she was able to customize everything about the massage to address computer body - aka hunching forward, tight muscles in the upper body and chest and neck strain etc. We talked at length about it and she was able to explain at multiple points during the massage what was happening in my body. I was loving the stretches she put me in to open the chest and release tension in hips. And I really like the attention to my feet in the beginning to ground in and take care of an often ignored part of the body. In my second appointment I walked in with back pain and left having felt that tension dissolve and I even think it stopped a headache from developing! Thai massage is so interesting as you are able to observe the practitioner’s knowledge and watch in amazement as they move the body into postures and target one physical area and then consequently another part of the body opens or adjusts. Erin is also such a nurturing person and creates a really relaxing and inviting space. She is conscious about keeping a clean and safe environment esp. during Covid. She had a mask on hand for me and just made everything easy! Definitely recommend 100%!!!

Outstanding. Erin has an amazing understanding of the human body, and it's mechanics, and is able to apply this knowledge to her massage to help fix, rather than just temporarily alleviate, body issues. I cannot recommend her highly enough. If you are an athlete and are suffering the nagging injuries that come from sport specific motion, I highly recommend the Thai massage, it's a game changer!

ashley webb

Erin is the most passionate professional therapist I've encountered. She has in-depth knowledge in the human anatomy and uses this along with her extensive training for a great experience for a therapeutic massage. Highly recommend!

Sandra Ariatti

My two and one-half hour Thai Massage with Erin was so much more than I expected. Erin is calm and personable and an expert at Thai Massage. Her studio is well lit, quiet, clean and serene and easily accessible from Biltmore Village Shopping. Erin took the time at the beginning of our session to find out how I felt and if I had any physical concerns. The session began with reflexology, completely opening and relaxing my toes, feet and ankles. Erin then moved to my legs and hips, stretching and opening, both front and back. As she moved my legs and hips my muscles just let go and I experienced an intense stretch I've not been able to accomplish on my own in my yoga practice. She opened my chest and shoulders with pressure and stretching. Erin applied intense pressure to my abdomen and with my breathe I was able to clear out stale air from my lungs. Throughout this massage a warm, herbal politice was applied to areas of tightness to further open the energy channels. After the massage I felt weightless and this feeling carried over to the next day. I felt wonderful the next day; no soreness, aches or pains anywhere in my body. I am eager to repeat this experience soon. Get a Thai Massage with Erin as soon as you can book an appointment. You will not be disappointed.

First time ever trying Thai massage and so glad I found Erin! I’ve had individual and couples sessions- both have been deeply therapeutic. As a physically active person (running, yoga, Pilates) the individual sessions have improved my range of motion, relieved muscle tension, and realigned me from the inside out— energetically - physically. After one on one sessions, I’d come home and try explaining to my boyfriend (runner, lifts weights) how much he could benefit from Thai massage. Although reluctant at first, he agreed to give it a try, first one on one then in a couples session. Erin tailored the couple session around learning what massage techniques we could use at home to support each other. She first demonstrated the technique then she’d have us try it, giving us helpful feedback/tips. She even catered to our different learning styles- I wanted to know more technical aspects (muscles, motion etc) while my boyfriend focused on general principles/areas of the body. The dual session gave us the tools to be intimate in a new way. Both of us appreciate now knowing how to care for each other’s bodies when they’re overly fatigued, tense or otherwise feeling out of sorts. Can’t thank Erin enough for guiding us along and providing a truly healing touch!

Jamie Engel

Very good Thai massage. Erin did a great job. Communication before and after was very good. Her place of business is professional and comfortable. Especially for an out of towner. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a true Thai massage.

Robert Kyle

Erin does great work. I had the pleasure of being able to receive an Integrated Table Massage from her. She paid attention to how my body was responding to the work and melded a combination of massage techniques to get the best possible results. I will definitely book with her again the next time I am in Asheville.

Sam Pedisich

Erin's skills and presence throughout several healing sessions were absolutely vital in pulling me out of a crushed physical and spiritual state after an immobilizing motorcycle accident. She set me on the path I did not know how to find without her wide professional skill set. My gratitude is beyond words.

Years of hard court tennis and road running eventually took a toll resulting in acute Plantar Faciitis...in both feet. After a gamut of treatments, from shots to night splints to physical therapy & custom orthodics, the pain finally subsided enough to return to tennis...on clay courts. Recently, after a years long hiatus, I started training for an upcoming road race and pain began creeping in again. I decided to try Thai Reflexology Massage. The results are amazing so far, after just one session. Pain-free the next morning and still pain-free after a couple trail runs. Erin works not only the soles but the entire foot, ankle and lower leg area...systematically and deeply. Explaining each technique and constantly seeking feedback. The balms she applies keep bringing warmth into affected areas for hours after. Just an incredible experience. In a space that is serene and relaxing all on its own. I plan on making it part of my regimen going forward. Erin clearly has the knowledge but also the touch. Healing hands.

Michael Fortini

Erin has a very professional approach to getting your body to work better. I look forward to feeling younger after every visit.

Beautiful space and a thoughtful massage! Erin did a good job evaluating what I need and took time to address that. Thank you!

Rory Heller

Great 90 minute massage! Looking forward to the next one. Great therapeutic touch, great communication, very intuitive. Thank you again!

Travis Owens

Erin does wonderful work. Thanks again and see you soon.

Mara Shepard

My first time trying Thai Massage! Wonderful experience and calm atmosphere. Erin is knowledgeable and compassionate. During our session not only did I get to enjoy a relaxing massage but she also was able to provide helpful insights into injury prevention. Very thankful for her assessment and guidance. Overall an excellent experience and would highly recommend!
