"The touch in addition to the conversation helped me a lot to observe what was happening in my body. Most of the time, when I was asked questions like this, I was more in my head and felt disconnected from my feelings or didn't even notice what was going on in my body.
During the session, I really got involved and followed the instructions. In addition to consciously breathing and moving my body to make room for my lungs, my chest cracked, which gave me a great feeling of relief. After that, I was able to breathe much better.
I also find that the touch gives the feeling that Ella is not distant and is just professional. This creates a feeling of familiarity, especially when I open up and discuss intimate topics."
