I am seeing a 29-year-old woman with a history of asthma. She began CFT after seeing the benefits of the work for her 3-year-old son, who also has asthma. She has had two sessions and both treatments revealed a deep arch (extension) from her occiput to her sacrum. Mike and I observed a distinct change in her breathing after only 45 minutes of treatment, specifically after the arching released. Her wheezing has ceased and she has not needed to use her medication in three weeks.
Her son is responding to CFT treatments as well, and his symptoms related to asthma have reduced to almost nothing. He too had a severe arching pattern, which is now almost gone.
We never know what is inside someone’s “onion” or how many layers are within the body when beginning CFT on a new client. Fortunately for these two people, their bodies were ready to release what was needed to help their asthma immediately.
