"I was lucky enough to have a Trager session w you years ago. It was the best bodywork I ever had. The opening up of areas on the body was something I have never experienced since. Tried to find someone who practices Trager out hee in Los Angeles when I moved, and weirdly, not a single person does it that I could find. I remember when you were addressing my areas, hello legs, hello arms. You have a skill that is so valuable. I hope next time I’m back in Chicago, I can get an appt at Shen Shen Health and Harmony. This video reminds me of that great appt and how uplifted I felt after. Thank you for the video."
