But today, that is his reality. As a child, there were a few signs that Eric had a special ability, but it wasn’t until one night, years ago, that Eric realized his full potential. Lights went on, and he felt a presence in his house, but that was it, so Eric didn’t think much of it. Then, when he went to his office, as a leading chiropractor in Los Angeles, his patients reported feeling his touch before he even put his hands on them. Every single person was reporting a healing – many physical, others mental or spiritual. For his patients, it was astounding. For Eric, it came easily and naturally.
