Testimonials

I am floored, humbled, touched, excited, and so much more that I get the honor and pleasure to work with you. You affirmed SO much to me today … little intuitive nigglings that I have had, that it has been easy for my mind to dismiss or gloss over. In the absence of someone who approaches the topic of arousal as a holistic system, I would have been left in a state of limbo. I don’t know where I would have encountered the knowledge to make these connections on my own.

About a month after our last session, I became pregnant :). Turns out you were right and there wasn’t scar tissue around my Fallopian tubes but tight muscles. After only a short time of doing regular pelvic floor massage, everything opened up and here I am at week 33 of my pregnancy. Thank you so much, I know it was our session that brought me to where I am now with my body and my baby. We are beyond thrilled for this baby, and i’ve had a very easy pregnancy.

JW

Thank you so much for the Zoom call and for the fantastic course. 12 years of nursing and I didn’t know half the stuff you have spoken about – it has blown my mind!

S. T.

Thank you. Not just for the resources, but for our session and for everything. You were right…the morning ocean plunge has been life-changing. Even from the first day. I’m working toward staying underwater for longer counts each day and becoming stronger. You were also right about my need for intense physical exertion. (DUH!!!) I’ve been upping the intensity of my yoga and exploring acrobatic classes. Spinning and climbing are next. The anxiety and depression are gone and my social life is blooming!

Ellen’s knowledge and experience is unparalleled. She approaches health concerns from a variety of informed perspectives and provides practical solutions for prevention/self care/wellness as well as relief from pain. Her research is cutting-edge, and her sessions are deep, nuanced, and insightful. Also, she’s funny and a joy to interact with, which really helps when doing such deep, vulnerable work. I trust her completely.

Bonnie S

I met Ellen in an anatomy workshop she led and knew I wanted to have a healing session with her. It fulfilled all my expectations of being seen and heard and offering a portal to healing. She is a deeply intuitive, caring and compassionate person. I felt vulnerable and safe. She holds space for you to experience deep emotional release with so much grace.

Shannon R

I can’t believe I how much I have learned in my first two sessions with Ellen! And that is to say nothing of her ability to understand what your issues are and then know exactly how to tackle them. You will leave each session feeling like a different and new person, I can assure you of that.

Craig E

I’m still in awe of Ellen’s understanding of the human body. I saw her for ongoing issues I’ve had with my pelvis after having children. I’ve tried numerous modalities over the years, but nothing was as in-depth, integrative and truly healing as my session with Ellen. I have a renewed sense of hope in my capacity to get – and stay – well.

Breon M

I have met and been worked on by some brilliant healers in my time. Ellen is up there with the best.

TB

Thank you so much!! I am so grateful for this STREAM training and for all the ways you have taught me over the years. Your work is my foundation and I feel really fortunate to have the know-how to help so many people with vulvas. I hope to see you again soon and continue to learn from you.

S.Z.

There is no one I could more highly recommend to anyone that this amazing lady !!!!! So knowledgeable, will direct you to fellow amazing experts, someone who is truly gifted.

Nick Reed

I just wanted to thank you again for your support and the opportunity of receiving your guidance. I came away yesterday feeling that something shifted. Things really dropped very deeply into me and I spent this morning on my own to integrate. I know it was your direct and ultimately supportive and loving words that were the catalyst for waking me up to hear myself and my power more clearly.

N.G.

It is the most amazing thing that has happened to support my chronic sinus problems, after reading your castor oil notes they have changed my health in a way I never thought possible.
I cannot thank you enough.

J.C.

Ellen is absolutely phenomenal. Her depth and breadth of knowledge is unparalleled, and our session was the most insightful health appt. I’ve had in years. She takes the time to listen and explore the ways your health and emotions/life experiences are intertwined, and her list of recommendations are all things I can do for myself and on a budget. Super practical and empowering! I’m dying to book another appointment and can’t recommend her enough!

C.R.

Ellen provides the anatomy and physiology component for the UK & Ireland Certificate in Sexological Bodywork training. Her breadth and depth of knowledge, as well as her ability to distill and synthesize related bodies of knowledge are a constant source of inspiration for us and our students.

Kian de la Cour

So finding Ellen has been like striking gold or seeing a unicorn… I’ve been on a healing journey for over 7 years and seen more than 50 doctors and many more healers, but Ellen just might top them all. Her intuitive, kind, and thoughtful ‘bedside manner’ is second only to her unmatched comprehensive knowledge of the human body. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to be able to work with her. Run, don’t walk!

Maddie

My time with Ellen is never less than amazing–whether receiving bodywork or exploring somatic exercise I can completely trust the depth of her experience. As a somatic movement professional I always delight in our dialogue. As a woman seeking new knowledge and support, Ellen Heed is a rare find!

Deborah Raoult

I had a consultation with Ellen with amazing results. I know this sounds unbelievable, but with one 20 minute set of exercises she corrected a foot condition that I had had for several years. I had consulted with podiatrists, chiropractors and other body workers with no results. She showed me the exercises to do to maintain this wonderful result!! There were other wonderful benefits as well. I feel so very hopeful that I have found a truly gifted healer!!!!

Linda W

Ellen is all of the following (and more): preternaturally intuitive, incredibly thoughtful, terribly bright, and wonderfully genuine. But don’t take my word for it… do yourself a favor and connect with her. You’ll be so glad you did.

Rachel F

On my very first session, Ellen knew the exact spot to attend to that would heal my issue. Amazing! I’ve done tons of body work with pro’s for years. She’s the first to have identified the root of the root of my misalignment and pain. Her hands are incredibly skilled- from light touch to deep. I also love how informative she is on everything- both western and eastern knowledge- from diet to physiology and everything between. She is a truly rare specialized Health Healer.

Elizabeth Jackson

It was a pleasure to meet Ellen, and she did a wonderful job. Her intake was detailed and organized, and she helped me a lot with my back and knee issues. I’m looking forward to seeing her again!

Elizabeth F

Ellen is Superb. Superb in Knowledge, Comfort with language and client-therapist relationship, very Professional, and Generous sharing what she knows and more.

R.M.

I am so thankful for my time with Ellen. In the time you are with her she becomes your body’s ally, advocate, voice, seer and healer. Such a wealth of knowledge and a gifted therapist. It would be so nice to live closer to her. thank you Ellen.

Shellan

I have been going to Ellen now for several years and just want to articulate how valuable a long term experience with Ellen is. She tracks my history better than I do in our sessions and is able to make mind-blowing links. She works like an alchemist.. fearlessly weaving the light and dark experience of the body into new alignment, pleasure and functional wisdom I trust her and with her help have learned to trust my body even more!

Rebecca Farr

A Doctor in Somatic Psychology, Ellen Heed has been teaching me about the mind-body connection, and how our gut flora (microbes that inhabit our gut) play a role in our mental, emotional and physical health. Towards this end, I’ve gotten away from sugars and copious amounts of starches. I’ve also started eating more foods that promote the microbes I want to flourish. My goal is to live my best life …

Sandra Dupont

Ellen, has triggered a profound shift that is taking place on multiple levels even a week later. I couldn’t recommend her intuitive and well researched work more highly.

G.R.

Ellen is a true magician, she is so skilled at listening to the body and I was so surprised by how her touch allowed so much of my body to find its way back to a good feeling place. Thank you Ellen!

Kiana R

Just in the intake you may receive enough healing to make the whole session worth it! and then of course you get on the table!!!! Ellen is a deep holistic thinker that moves into places so advanced it just feels like a downright miracle! I am so grateful for the wisdom, hard work and years of practice that make this healer what she is… OUTSTANDING!!!!

Rebecca Farr

Im very blessed that I had the chance to have session with Ellen – a super woman with super powers and great knowledge! Thank you!

E.S.

I saw Ellen at 28weeks pregnant and she put me in an inversion posture that gave me complete relief from the heaviness of pregnancy and showed me how I can safely do this at home. She also assessed my previous cystocele and rectocele and I plan to see her again as part of my postpartum recovery plan. I’m so lucky she’s here in LA not too far from me. Ellen is attentive and gentle. She helped me see patterns of thought I hadn’t recognized or understood so thoroughly. She listens deeply.

Joya Roy

Ellen will not only blow your mind with her knowledge (and her hands) she will empower you with knowledge so that you can take action and have understanding about your body and your health. She isn’t a supplement pusher who is getting a percentage off the things she is suggesting; she is an advocate who is making recommendations so that you can be healthy and live a fulfilling life.

Kelsey Zahn

I have seen Ellen twice and both times were incredibly rewarding. She has so much knowledge and understanding about the human body. You are truly in great hands.

D.J.

It was a pleasure working with Ellen this week, and entirely worth making the trip over from Scotland for! Ellen helped me to get clear on how to support my energy levels, through nutrition and self care tips. She supported me to understand the roots of a few physiological and emotional goings on, and ways to work myself out of deep groove patterns of behavior. We made some big structural changes through the bodywork, my energy already feels better and my body feels very different! Thank you E!

Jane Mann

Ellen has such a calm demeanor, it’s easy to be at peace around her, she just has a way of bringing your nervous system down to a calm place. She has such a wealth of knowledge and wisdom and knowing hands, I know I’m in good hands with her. We accomplished a lot in my session and I’m looking forward to working with her more.

Rhonda B

Ellen is a world-renowned expert in her field. There is no one like her in Europe. She couldn’t have been more helpful or informative.

John F

In the session with Ellen I felt super safe and cared for. At the same time I felt I was speaking to someone who holds a wonderful space for me to heal and to understand my wounds better. On top of this she is a real expert in her field and shares it with so much openness. Totally trust her advice and consultation. Thank you so much.

Mounira L

I have never met a healer who gets all the reasons why my body has been in pain. Ellen has a depth of knowledge and touch that heals, a hopeful outlook on how to enact positive change. I am so encouraged that I can be a part of the healing I need, and that she will be there to make sure I’m on track. She physically helped my body get back to its natural state as well as empowered me to go further on my own. Don’t hesitate, make an appointment!

Bettina Hubby

I have known Ellen Heed as a teacher and innovative healer for 15 years. I recently reconnected with her over pelvic floor issues and prolapse that developed after giving birth to my son. One hour with her was priceless for getting me on track with my healing. I have been dedicated to finding a path besides surgery and mesh. She is redefining what is possible for many women who face these issues. I cannot recommend her enough.

Terra Gold

When I first started working with Ellen I had a complex array of issues to work on. She has enormously empowered my healing through her practical, self-help approach. I am able to follow her guidelines with ease. Ellen’s wisdom and grace are powerful gifts.

Helen Rowland

Through Ellen’s work, I’ve been able to reclaim my mobility. Being a dental hygienist fo 30 years, I had locked up my right shoulder and hip, with poor posture during working hours. Due to her deep tissue massage, and helpful, health-related advice, I’m feeling 20 years younger.

S.D.

I had two hands-on sessions with Ellen at 14 months postpartum, and they were powerful. She gave me many resources to support my health and postpartum recovery. The bodywork helped move some stuck tissue and emotions. Ellen’s presence and attention are broad and holistic.

Dianne K

I flew in from Florida to work with Ellen, and it was worth the trip. She is undoubtedly the best in her field of specialty, and her knowledge and insights were truly amazing… not to mention her world-class bodywork. I highly recommend her, and am looking forward to my follow up sessions.

Howard Fineman

After years of seeing both MDs, Naturopaths, and several specialists, without getting any kind of real clarity or feedback about my “mystery” symptoms, Ellen was able to see my body holistically and draw powerful and insightful conclusions. She asked potent and informed questions to dig deeper, and was able to really give me a sense of security. A concise and feasible action plan is what I have now, and she has followed up thoroughly after our consult. I highly recommend Ellen.

Lindsay Fitzgerald

Ellen is extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer questions that other experts could not. I see and feel a profound difference in my body after one session.

Almaliis Lauredson

Ellen was able to advice on a possible treatment for scar tissue for an amputation within an hour that nobody was able to give in 13 years of visiting ‘specialists’ in this field. Excited to start the treatment and see the changes. Thank you!

Vanessa DeSmet

Ellen is incredible! She has changed the way I view health and healing. She has a vast knowledge of the human body and how to heal it with natural methods. I use Ellen’s teachings everyday in my own practice and personal health regime. I would highly recommend session with her either in a teaching/supervision capacity or personal healing/development.

Lorraine P.

Ellen is incredible. She is an expert in several fields of health and wellness. I am blessed to know her and have seen her in a time of great need.

Scarlet Taylor

My session with Ellen was extremely helpful and informative. She understood my body’s physical and emotional needs and helped me to understand what I could do to unlock some of the patterns that are keeping me from embodying my own power. I wish everyone could pay a visit to Ellen!

Ann Lupo

Ellen was able to draw together pieces of information that were seemingly unrelated into an integrated whole that I have never experienced before. I came away from my first consultation feeling empowered that achieving health and wellness is available to me!

Helen Rowlands

Ellen Heed is a remarkable healer. She has a wealth of knowledge about the body, and guides me on health practices I can undertake to bring my health to the next level. Every time I meet with her, I learn something new. If you have the opportunity to schedule an appointment with her, you won’t regret it! I’m planning to stay with Ellen for as long as she continues to work…

INFJ

Ellen’s knowledgeable skill set supersedes most medical advice I have sought out for answers. I walked away with solid answers before I had asked them. Ellen is perceptive, detail oriented, and mindful of her offering a complete picture that makes sense. Money well spent!

J.M.

After over 15 months of pain and going to PT, I was introduced to Ellen. She gave me hope by showing me some exercises for my piriformis. I’ve seen so many physical therapists and doctors and no one could figure out a way to help the pain go away. Thank you so much !!!!

Tracy Kelly

At one point in our consult, I thought: “holy shmoly: she’s answered ALL my questions AND given me super-actionable things to do.” As someone who’s struggled with a complex array of conditions for YEARS, this was incredible. Then I looked at the clock: we were only 30 minutes into a 60 minute consult. WOW. So, evidently Ellen can warp time. But more importantly, after years of being mismanaged by docs and “specialists,” I walked away feeing liberated and hopeful. Highly recommend.

Angela R.

All I could think during my appointment was “Thank God” I found Ellen. Her work is brave, unique and profound. I would highly recommend her.

Erin S.

I had the pleasure of working with Ellen in an initial session (that rocked my world) and I’m looking forward to working with her in the weeks and months to come. I intuit that our work together will provide me with a healthy and healing foundation!

Shelanda Baker

Ellen is very knowledgeable, skillful, thorough and down to earth. I feel like she has placed me on the right track for a healthy lifestyle.

Larry Williams

Ellen is the real deal! Totally committed to helping people. She gives freely of her time answering email questions in between sessions. If that weren’t enough, she is hideously smart, and incredibly well informed in her field. If you see Ellen, you are guaranteed to get substantially healthier!

S.S.

Although this was first session/ appointment with Ms.Heed, I was/am very impressed with her hands-on approach, knowledge and skill level, also she allowed me to feel very comfortable. Marti Martinez from Clearway gave me the referral.

Larry Williams

Ellen was very intuitive and I trusted her right away. I came to her because I had a very bad broken leg from a ski accident and she has a reputation as the women who can rid of scar tissue! She was incredibly kind and gentle which made her very effective getting into those spots that needed work. He years of experience and knowledge are awesome! I look forward to working with her and having more mobility and less inflammation in my leg.

Stephanie M.

Ellen was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, kind, and effective. She eloquently guided me through the trouble spots in my body and brought me to a new level of understanding about it. The bodywork was incredible. When I left my first session it felt like I had a brand new vessel. The level of awareness and energy I felt post was unprecedented. So grateful for her and her work.

Vance Vlasek

After only 2 sessions, I will say this about Ellen: she gives everything she has once she takes you on as a client. She goes out of her way, and sends all sorts of informative emails after assessment. Lots of change so far. My chronic back pain has not yet been cured, but I’ve gotten off gluten, margarine, donuts, and cookies! My dizzy spells have decreased, and I feel less need for coffee. I have hope! Damn, I only have 28 characters remaining.

Scott S.

Of course the physical work was amazing: some work on my pterygoid and mandible and I felt my nasal passages open up! An unexpected breath of fresh air. But most important this session was the amazing advice and support Ellen was able to give me as a newly pregnant woman. I feel now perfectly equipped to eat well, and exercise appropriately. Amazing!

Jessica D.

Every session with Ellen is amazing. I know I’ve got lots of scar tissue blocks in my body, and Ellen is one of the few people I know who can reliably get into my various muscles and body parts to clear them out. Surely, it is intense, but the change in mobility and general comfort is amazing.

Stephane D.

The thing about Ellen is, she doesn’t give a shit. She doesn’t care about your story. She doesn’t care about your fears. She doesn’t care about whatever you have been telling yourself for the past twenty years about why you have this or why you do that. The only thing she cares about is getting you to the point where you go, “OH. Now I see what’s been getting in my way.” And because that’s the only thing that matters to her, she has this amazing ability to cut through all my bullshit, make me see whatever it is that’s getting in my way, and then heal it…in an instant. And the crazy thing is that she does it in the most gentle, compassionate, sweet way, so I feel totally safe and protected.

JW

When I came to see Ellen for my session, I was standing hunched over and feeling completely out of sync. That would all change. Ellen discussed with me my surgeries, prescriptions and gym routines… before we got to working on my body. I felt that I was being educated about everything that we were doing. At the end of the session I was standing tall and reconnected. That was in just one amazing session. Thank you!!!

R.D.

I sent this to Ellen the day after our session: You are a miracle. I have a stride again. I am so open. You unwrapped me. Again. Thank you.

W.S.

Thank you Ellen for the powerful session. I learned so much about myself. I feel so much more whole. You are a graceful and a masterful practitioner.

Marla Mervis

Ellen is incredible. Brilliant and knows the body inside and out. Just what I’ve been looking for to support my healing from a rape 20 years ago and my son’s very long birth that I’m still healing from. I’m so grateful I found her and know I’m in the best of hands.

S.S.

Ellen Heed is incredibly knowledgeable in every area of health and is a Wealth of information. She is a gifted healer and a wonderful person who really cares and makes you feel cared for. She is both brilliant and intuitive. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Denise D.

I recently had an extremely enlightening Skype session with Ellen Heed. I’ve been experiencing some issues around sexuality, anatomical and emotional. I did wonder if we really could address these via the medium of Skype, and we absolutely did! Ellen was able to clearly see some unhelpful habits I have been working in my yoga practice and to give clear instructions for me address. I felt very seen by Ellen and empowered to work with the tools she shared.

Janet McInnes

Ellen my right foot feels almost back to normal! It’s a very noticeable change!!!! I’m more then thrilled! Thank you as always !!! Make another appointment anytime Xo

VR

My first meeting with Ellen was very gratifying. She is deeply intelligent in her knowledge, understanding, and perceptions of/about the body. She made sense of the information I gave her, both verbally and through physical assessment movements, by explaining how the pieces were related and why I have been in pain. Her hands-on work was profound, in depth and in discovering and working to release extreme tightness and holding in my body. Afterwards, my whole body felt fluid and light!

K.M.

I can’t say enough about this practitioner’s wealth of knowledge in regards to anatomy, and skeletal substructures. I feel immensely taking care of, both physically and psychologically, when receiving treatment from her.

Grateful Client

Ellen has given me the best bodywork, advice and resources. She has helped me transform my body and feel like I am 34 again. I will forever be grateful for her touch, expertise and gentle loving manner.

CW

I am a professional certified Sexological Bodyworker. I was so amazed and happy with the session of bodywork I received from Ellen. Ellen did a lot of deep external and internal pelvic release and remediation work on scar tissue from a previous ovarian surgery, which had created deep scarring/adhesions. Ellen also did great work on my neck and shoulders where I have problems from many years of work-related repetitive strain and 3 whiplash injuries. Highly recommended.

Elaine Young

Ellen is a rare and authentic healer and has a treasure chest of natural healing tools, resources and outstanding referrals on every issue I have required. She has helped me achieve a peak level of health and well-being. And I adore her as a person. Ellen Heed is an amazing gift, I am delighted to have found her.

Carol W.

I thought I had it all … easy pregnancy, fast labor. Five months postpartum they wanted to do surgery to clear up scar tissue that made sex nearly impossible – and activity painful. I was referred to Ellen and within 3 sessions am feeling like a new person. I’m so grateful for her expertise, passion for teaching and encouragement to fight for myself postpartum. I will be coming to her before and after my next child no matter what. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES LADIES!!!

Krysta M.

I found Ellen to be very knowledgeable in many different areas of expertise. I felt very comfortable with her. I am looking forward in future visits as I feel she may have some of the keys to unlock my body’s healing.

Nikki R.

Ellen and I worked on Skype. She is incredibly well informed and has given me the guidance I need to continue on my journey of healing a ovarian cyst. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with me!!!!

Catherine Hale

I’m grateful Ellen makes the time from her busy schedule to “help” my physical body! It seems she just knows what part of my body needs work or an adjustment! Thank you Ellen!!!!!

VR

I saw Ellen for post-operative pain. I was impressed with her assessment skills and the comprehensive treatment including multiple factors such as diet, lifestyle, emotions, posture, my biochemical tendencies and more. Ellen has been an integral part of my training in Sexological Bodywork with her inspiring and detailed original anatomy presentations. I highly recommend her as a teacher and clinician.

Kian de La Cour

I recently had an introductory session with Ellen to discuss miscellaneous issues with a focus on my recurring acid reflux. She instantly gave me a list of great remedies and weaved in potential issues I should have a doctor confirm. She ended the session with bodywork, which was amazing and very effective. I like her holistic approach and can’t wait to see her again!!

Melanie Hildebrandt

I was afraid my scar tissue issues post delivery of my child was a lost cause. Before going through with the recommended surgery, I connected with Ellen and our first session made me feel informed, empowered and feeling so much better about the future. Yay for no surgery and yay for being more aware of my body and what it needs!

Krysta M.

Great practical and insightful suggestions and resources offered to help rehab of disc issues. Holistic perspective taking into account impact of bodily, emotional and nutritional causes / contributors to actual problem. Tks!

T.V.

This is my second review after working with Ellen for over a year. It’s been a joyous journey full of adventures. In every session I continue to confront new insights about my personal history and my potential, about the organic body, about society and ancestry, about the fundamental experiences of time, selfhood, and the material universe. I’ve never felt more content as I feel now, nor have I felt more hopeful. Thank you, Ellen, for accompanying me on this formidable and enlightening journey.

LY

At my first session with Ellen, we dived deeply into issues involving past childbirth trauma and my nervous system. Through talking and hands-on work, I learned much about my body. Ellen supported me in exploring and releasing as deeply as I was willing to go. She is clear, grounded, and compassionate. I highly recommend Ellen’s services.

Dianne K.

Ellen is a solid healer. She is very versatile, with many tools in her toolbox. She is so helpful and thorough, taking the time to get to know you and get clear on you what you need. I’ve worked with many massage therapists and she is by far the most skilled and knowledgeable I’ve ever met. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to work with her.

Sam Perman

Ellen knows how many different systems of healing and systems of the body and mind are connected. She was very attentive, knowledgeable, and helpful. It was particularly helpful that she has had personal experience in some of the issues I am dealing with. I am looking forward to more sessions with her.

D. S.

Ellen really took the time to ask me questions about all the various ailments I’ve collected over the years. Then she proceeded to work a ton of scar tissue out of me. This included with a great deal of helpful information on how to do self-maintenance in between times. Amazing and totally worth it.

Stephane Dreyfus

Awesome and inspiring consultation addresing the various conponents of my particular issue covering emotional, biochemical, biomechanical and the scar tissue conponents.
Fantastic!

Kian do la Cour

Ellen, was able to perform an assessment that many other doctors and practitioners have not. She is very knowledgeable, caring, strong and focused. I highly recommend her.

David Hertz

If I could give Ellen 10 stars on here I would! Ellen has been such a tremendous source of support and healing in my life for the past 9 months. She has held my hand and showered me with her wisdom through the challenging process of healing my gut. I can honestly say that I would not be where I am today without her. She is an amazing practitioner. I am so incredibly grateful to have her in my life.

Gabrielle Cohen

I have been working with Ellen for a few months, now. She is terrific, intuitive, and honest. I give her my full trust – she has earned it.

Lori

1) Highly attuned 2) Elevated guidance 3) Full Trust 4) Academically gifted 5) On an infinite amount of healing Modalities 6) Top Notch

Darcy Paley

Wow. Ellen what a session. So informative and helpful. I hope the information you understand makes its way into the mainstream soon. The world needs it. Aloha!

Jesse Carmichael

I’ve worked with, and been worked on by, many therapists, bodyworkers and healers of all sorts. Ellen Heed is the best of the best. She knows more different healing systems than anyone else I’ve encountered and understands the strengths and weaknesses of each and how they work together, when and how to use certain techniques, and what to expect to accomplish with them. She explains things well and succeeds where others fall short. Thanks, Ellen!

Margaret W.

Ellen is an intergalactic guide into the body that has me riveted with intrigue satiated with nourishing knowledge and wanting to learn more.

Katie Sarra

Ellen is a masterful practitioner and true Healer with decades of experience and tremendous skill. Her magic hands, innate brilliance and encyclopedic knowledge have revolutionized my understanding of true health, helping me shine a light into the dark places, reclaim my body, and resolve a lifetime of trauma and injury. She is authentically honest, kind and direct, a real pleasure to work with and easy to open up to. The choice to work with her was one of the best I’ve ever made.

XO Sophia A.

In today’s fast-paced society, it’s not uncommon for my nervous system to get overwhelmed. A session with Ellen helps bring my entire body back into balance, as well as remind me of the self-care practices I need to maintain that balance.

Ellen surpasses expectations every time. Her knowledge and insight are unparalleled. She is intuitive, inquisitive and empathetic. Ellen gets right to the point and her bodywork does absolute wonders.

MF

I’m hooked! Ellen knows what she is doing ! She loves her work and it shows strong results on my body. I’m walking straight again.

VR

Ellen is incredible! Her knowledge of the human body- and each individual human body- is astounding. She took great care, time, and energy in addressing my every bodily concern. She truly has a gift, and I feel so grateful to have found her.

I’ve been working with Ellen for close to two years now. The transformation in my body, both internally and externally, has exceeded my expectations. My body is now functioning at a much higher level than it was when I began, and my quality of life has unquestionably improved since I met Ellen.

SD

Ellen is highly knowledgeable and utilizes multiple healing modalities to work with her patients. I left with information on how to modify my diet for optimum health AND with my body feeling much more open and relaxed thanks to her work with essential oils and body work. Ellen is an encyclopedia of wellness knowledge and an expert practitioner to boot. I felt totally safe and secure with her. The highlight for me was releasing tension in my jaw, which I wasn’t aware I had. I will be back!

Justin H.

As is usual with Ellen she hit the nail on the head in just a few minutes. Then we get down to the details of what to do. Always helpful, always pragmatic. I love the essential oils and feel they have a huge positive impact on the bodywork. She is easy to work with and responsive to my concerns. In short I thoroughly enjoy working with Ellen.

MS

Besides calming down my throat and body inflammation with incredible oils, Ellen massaged my left knee that had a hitch that’s been holding back movement and flexibility for many weeks. The swelling is down 90% the next day and I’m finding I can run and jump like my old self! Thank you thank you Ellen!! You are better than the best. Devoted client!

VR

I too took Ellen’s functional anatomy course and was immediately interested in booking an appointment with her. Even though it was over Skype, the meeting went very well, and Ellen’s joy, energy and enthusiasm for healing came through clearly. I have only just started the cleansing regimen suggested, so I can’t yet report on the healing, but I’m very much looking forward to practicing what she has taught me to cure many minor ailments in my body.

Stephane D.

I took Ellen’s anatomy for yoga teachers course and was immediately engaged by her knowledge base, teaching style and understanding of both the energetic and anatomical causes for physical/emotional issues. Consequently, I wanted to learn more about my body and booked a session. I had some major body trauma recently, and really needed some help. The bodywork, and information I received during and after my session, has been amazing. I look forward to my body homework, and seeing Ellen soon.

Shalena O.

Great Skype consult with Ellen Heed. Very knowledgeable in all directions and we covered a lot in a short time. I wish I lived closer so I could book her for hands on bodywork sessions! V. De Smet Apr 7, 2015

I’ve truly turned a corner on my health after one appointment with Ellen. She carefully showed me a simple, effective exercise routine suited to my health profile. She told me, in a clear & simple way, what was going on with me structurally & where to go from here, including diet, exercise, & mental attitude. This was all BEFORE the most targeted, intense, scar-tissue melting body work I’ve ever had, which included aromatherapy oils on acupuncture points for extra relaxation. Highly recommend!

This is my second session with Ellen. She is full of compassion and kindness. I feel like a million bucks after each session. She is a Master Bodyworker. I highly recommend a session with Ellen. Amazing!!!

B.S.

I love Ellen Heed’s work. She’s incredibly precise and has a deep and wide reaching knowledge of the human body and all its layers. I have had a lot of body work in my lifetime, and have never experienced a bodyworker quite like her. Insightful, great energy, and high quality. Highly recommend.

M.I.

Ellen is a game changer when it comes to healing! Her comprehensive approach has really helped me eliminate many of the blocks I had around healing. With her diverse knowledge, you don’t need to have 45 other practitioners in your life!

Aaron Epstein

Ellen has been able to fill in the gaps of what I have gotten from other healers. She has provided the knowledge of what to do next and where to get the resources that I need. She provides personalized follow-up and support. And uses the full gamut of resources: technology, books, people, companies, intuition and her superb healing hands.

Carole Whitley

Ellen is one of a kind! Her ability to integrate Western anatomy, somatic psychology and various bodywork modalities is unparalleled. Simply the best!

Tim M.

Ellen was very thorough in taking a history as well as addressing my concerns in a holistic way. She made several suggestions for me to try for healing.

Rene M.

Ellen has been my personal health consultant for two years now. I haven’t met anyone more knowledgeable than her when it comes to nutrition and bio-functionality. Talking to Ellen doesn’t only provide me with solutions to my health problems, but it always leaves me feeling incredibly empowered on my life path. I highly recommend Ellen to anyone seeking to improve their life and life quality.

Katrin Ender

I expected our consultation to be excellent – that is what Ellen has been recommended to me as, but our session far exceeded my expectations. Ellen’s tremendous knowledge shone through as she drew together many modalities to present an accurate picture of what I am experiencing. I felt completely seen and heard. I left the session with concrete avenues to explore, and I am approaching what was once a difficult journey with calm, focus, and optimism!

Andria

Ellen possesses a rare level of integration, both in her personality and in her practice. She moves back and forth between the anatomical, the emotional and the spiritual with grace and understanding — in her touch as well as in her conversation. Ellen “owns” what she says, communicating information in an elegant, unambiguous way. She does this with utter gentleness and acceptance, and I felt liberated and totally safe working with her this way. She’s the one I would refer a family member to.

LY

Ellen has amazing techniques for prompting the body to move energy through it and start to heal. What a wonderful experience! Thank you, Ellen!

Connie E.

For sure, she knows the body, the muscles, the tendons, the fascia! She just “looks” at your body and knows what to do to get energy moving… I’m so fortunate to have her in my life! As an added “piece”, she adds so much extra to the sessions, like natural oils and great informative conversation!

VR

Cannot recommend Ellen warmly enough. Her knowledge is so deep and her physical awareness so acute that she gets to the core of your physical/emotional body issues with ease and assuredness. Her bodywork is simply mind-blowing.

Michael Falck

Ellen has years of wisdom in her hands…She feels so deeply grounded in knowledge, experience and intuition of the body. I feel so lucky to have found her! I can tell a great transformation is afoot as I work with her.

Rebecca Farr

Ellen is a mistress to healing the body holistically and she makes it feel fun. Her passion to help is sincere. I feel completely safe in her guidance and have experienced results immediately.

Brittany Roisum

In my travels and meetings with doctors, there is no one more knowledgeable, more straight talking and more importantly someone who gets you results than Ellen. I cannot recommend her highly enough – she has played a very important part in my continual mental and physical well being.

N. R.

Ellen Heed was recommended to me by a coworker, who was very pleased with her own experiences. I met Ellen yesterday for the first time. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis with chronic inflammatory issues. Ellen has many ideas to address my condition far exceeding what my medical doctor’s offer. I also had 2 hours of hands on bodywork by her. Where
she zeroed in on the smallest of issues, including very old scars I had forgotten about. I was very impressed by her natural skills and wealth of knowledge.

Amy S.

My session with Ellen was to help me resolve pudendal neuralgia, a nerve pain condition affecting the vulva, vagina, rectum and bladder. Ellen was a wonderful listener, as we discussed the challenges I face, and a gifted and intuitive bodyworker. She explained in detail what she was doing as the session progressed, and offered many new insights into resolving and managing my pain. Her level of skill and expertise was exemplary, and her practice and knowledge an inspiration.

Pauline McCluskey

Ellen is a loving, kind, calm, healing soul. She has strong intuition and creates a spiritual connection with her clients. She is also generous with her talents and committed to creating a healing community.

T.C.

You have to be serious about your healing process, but if you are, see Ellen. This is no-nonsense, get down to root cause, do YOUR work and Ellen will be your best guide. She is incredibly knowledgeable, gifted, experienced and WISE.

Katie Anderson

Extraordinary work. Ellen is a very gifted intelligent, understanding/responsive and caring practitioner. She has been an important mentor / healer guiding the journey back to health…on all levels, breath by breath.

John Calao

While I have only begun working with Ellen, I am completely impressed with her ability to listen, to assess, and to get a picture of a person, this based on a Skype session with her, no less! She described my body to me without any hands on work (yet), and gave me suggestions of how I can begin to strengthen muscles of the pelvic floor that had been stretched pretty thin from two “funny” childbirth experiences. She really empowers her clients to take control of their own health care.

Mitzi Schwartz

This lady is full of knowledge on most subjects relating to the physical body, diet, and in general, holistic health and well being! She has jumpstarted my body again! my legs and feet were asleep and full of crystalline deposits. My sciatica was locked with no where to move. She opened more that area of my body… I’m sooooo thrilled…..Now I’m breathing better and have a smile on my face! Thank you Thank you Ellen!!!

V.R.

My 1st session with Ellen was profound – I would see her every week if I could! The session not only brought up a lot of emotions I had been suppressing but also re-invigorated me to start taking care of myself again. I highly recommend giving her a try.

Aaron E.

I sought Ellen’s advice on what I needed to do to begin a meaningful career in holistic healing. Talking to Ellen was one of the smartest things I ever did. Ellen not only gave me advice on courses I should take and whom I should study with, she also gave me hope: I am currently at a point of great indecision and excitement in my life, and it was so grounding to talk to Ellen. Ellen really cares; she listens intently and opens doors to worlds that you didn’t know existed. Simply amazing!

Anjuli G.

Ellen Heed is an exquisite healer, with tremendous knowledge, as well as the capacity to be so present and receptive to the needs of her clients. Almost as if she has — or is a vessel for — a reservoir of healing gifts, bringing forth exactly what is necessary at any given time. Her strengths are just as fluent on the emotional and energetic levels, as on the physical. Thank You, Dear Ellen!

Rebecca Mahboubi

I’m so grateful for Ellen! Descriptive words from me tell her where to work on my body! I trust her insights and hands completely!!!! I’m standing taller today and on my path to follow her instructions! I’m so blessed to have found this incredible lady! She knows!

Vanya Rohner

I am impressed with Ellen’s thoroughness, compassion, and knowledge. I am looking forward to continuing the process and her assistance with my health challenges.

Anastasia

Ellen Heed has been my nutritional advisor for over 15 months. She has a vast experience in scar tissue and bio-chemical constitution of the human body. Furthermore, she is an incredibly passionate and devoted person with great resources. I have learnt the GAPS Diet from Ellen and am continuously in frequent contact with her to expand my knowledge and skills within anatomy, body functionality, and nutrition. I highly recommend Ellen to everyone interested in learning about the human body.

Katrin Ender

I met Ellen in my yoga teacher training class. The entire class and I were blown away by her knowledge and skills. After the training, I signed up for an evaluation and follow up session . . .. I’ve worked with some pretty amazing chiropractors and bodyworkers over the years. None of them came close to her holistic approach. When the session was over, I felt grounded. She told me that’s what it feels like to be aligned, to use your bones for support. It was amazing and continues to be.

Jacob G.

….. you meet someone like Ellen. Therapy + Excellent Bodywork + Advice + Referrals + Great Listener + Professional + Open-minded!

Talya Meldy

Ellen is a gift to those of us blessed by her touch, intuition, knowledge, compassion, and professionalism. Her patient, educational approach to delicate, sensitive areas brings freedom and healing. So grateful to her for her willingness to practice hands-on healing!

Kerala

Ellen sees and hears you, which enables her to connect with you on a deeper level. She’s intuitive and understanding. She has a plethora of knowledge and she is able to share it with you in a way you can understand. Finally, she is warm and supportive and I left feeling excited about my new direction and the challenges ahead, knowing that I have found a trusted ally.

H.S.

Excellent. Informative and supportive. Fantastic, comprehensive follow up info. Came away comforted, inspired and informed.

Alison Richardson

I had one session with Ellen back in Sept ’13. One year before I had had a classical C-section (vertical incision). Ellen listened, gave advice and gave me some bodywork that got to the heart of my adhesions. She was utterly professional and ultimately helpful. She found that one ovary had got ‘stuck’ with some adhesions and helped free it up. She gave me advice about castor oil and mudpacks. I had been trying to get pregnant for 5 months, after Ellen I was pregnant within 3!

Laura F.

Ellen Heed is so knowledgeable and wise in areas that are so needed concerning the human body and the integration of all its parts and systems. In 2 sessions, I have already received immense help and guidance in matters that are obscure to most health professionals. Ever grateful!

Radha Wolf

Ellen is a master of her craft and extremely generous with her approach. She creates such a safe environment that change and healing is inevitable. In my 15 years of teaching yoga and giving bodywork, she is consistently the BEST.

T C-G.

My time with Ellen has changed me-emotionally, nutritionally, physically, psycho-somatically. I understand my body differently, and in just three days after a session, I am approaching the world with more energy and empathy towards myself and others. I can’t recommend the work enough.

Leora Wolf-Prusan

Ellen is like a mix of all the great healers, advocates, teachers and pioneers that I’ve met in my life, all wrapped up into one person! She is truly divine and I am beyond grateful to have the opportunity to do the most profound body and spirit work under her guidance and support.

Tamala Poljak

I am a yoga teacher and bodyworker and have not met another person whose skill base is as holistic and deep as Ellen Heed’s. She is able to hold space for the whole person while making profound changes in the physical structure. I find that her bodywork continues to unwind for days after I see her.

Lara Catone

Unbelievable first session! Ellen is truly gifted in what she does. She understands the human body from top to bottom and shares her information readily. I am so lucky to have met her and so looking forward to my next appointment with her!

Patty F.

I have had lots of bodywork over the years, but Ellen is tops. She knows where to go, what to push, and is super knowledgeable about stuff like vitamins and nutrition. Her advice was excellent overall. I will come back again to see her! (I mean it, though in one quick session, she didn’t leave much to be done).

Liz S.

Ellen’s work was illuminating. Her sensitivity speaks to both commitment and talent. I’m a bodyworker, myself, with some chronic pain issues, and so I’m picky about what kind of touch I receive. Deep tissue style massage is usually a little aggressive for my tastes, but I would go back to Ellen when I need a fresh perspective on my body again. The massage space is also lovely and quiet.

Sarah Y.

Ellen is masterful at what she does. She has an intimate understanding of the body, and where each bone, muscle and sinew belongs in the greater scheme of the body. I have struggled for years with structural imbalance that neither yoga nor chiropractic treatment was able to address. I feel so grateful to have found Ellen and her deep fascial work. I feel well on my way to having the strong and balanced body structure I always hoped I could have.

Sandra D.

Ellen is great! Ellen was very responsive and booked our meeting right away. There are few people who can speak to our overall health with her clarity and care. Her knowledge is so clear that it is easy to take her input and apply her suggestions immediately. Which really, really speaks to her listening. Ellen is also very reality based and is willing to go into the difficult topics, and do the deepest work. She has my highest recommendation.

Sandy Till

I have had a lot of bodywork from the superficial to the deep healing type. Ellen is the best I have ever experienced at healing the body, knowing exactly what is the source of an issue and practically rebirthing the body. She is awesome!!! Thank you Ellen.

Ian Ferguson

Ellen knows the body and body/mind/spirit connection so well it’s mind-boggling. She blew me away and I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her. I had a chronic shoulder problem and pregnancy related body issues she helped me with and after our very thorough session I felt completely renewed and had better awareness of what my body was doing and needed.

Nina L.

I found Ellen to be very thoughtful and compassionate. She really listened and was quite helpful. Highly recommend!

Karen Miner

the things that she found out about me are something. I felt wonderful the next day. she has made some progress with just one visit.

barbara taub

What a pleasure .. a body worker who does not work from her idea of some ideal, but instead attunes to the person in front of her. Ellen is a font on knowledge, collaborative and a genius with her hands. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

David Bryan

Ellen is skilled, knowledgeable and intuitive. I had a bodywork session with her which revealed and released physical pain, a long-standing holding pattern and related grief. Her manner is supportive and professional, perfect for such deep work.

Margaret W.

Ellen is amazing. She is a great listener and communicator and knows how to get to the heart of things and proceed from there. She’s opened up and healed my body in ways that I never dreamed possible! I’m forever grateful!

Sharon

I feel so lucky to have met Ellen at a yoga teacher training. She was there to share her vast anatomy knowledge. She is so smart and has so much applicable and helpful info. When I met with her privately I got a coaching, a bodywork session and tons of great
things to do at home that are super helpful. This woman is a gift and I would recommend her to anyone looking to be and feel their best.

Kendra Button

Ellen’s insight in one session was very educational and informative. Very thorough with her knowledge. Look forward to working with her again.

Sharon Ann Dror

I felt really comfortable and safe in Ellen’s hands. She is an amazing healer and human being. Ellen has a massive experience, skills and intuition. Looking forward another session! Thanks!

Roberta Mazari

Just had another session with Ellen. I am amazed not only by the physical relief but also all the knowledge I walk away with. Self-care is far more possible when I am an active participant and Ellen gives me information to continue the healing that starts beneath her hands.

Amy Loubalu

Ellen was extremely knowledgeable, skilled, professional, personable, and caring. She knew what to do and how to do it. Thanks so much again, Ellen!

D. A.

In one session with Ellen over the phone regarding my struggle with low libido, I learned so much useful information that will keep me on my healing path for a while. Ellen suggested many great ideas and resources. She was organized, kind, and seemed in touch with so many different aspects of healing. I was introduced to all kinds of things I didn’t know I didn’t know – all of which were relevant to me. I am so grateful I connected with Ellen!!

A. R.

Ellen has helped me in so many ways to open, heal and awaken my once-NUMB body. I know this is just the beginning and there is so much more juiciness to come! She’s taught me how to believe in the magic of the Universe.

Sharon G.

I had an amazing session with Ellen to begin the GAPS diet. She was incredibly knowledgeable, informative and filled with suggestions. She offers a spirit of generosity of both her time and expertise. Because she follows GAPS, she really knows first hand how to guide someone through. To me, that is what makes the best practitioner. Ellen is all of that and more :-).

Jude W.

I had an amazing healing experience w Ellen — it left me wondering why I waited so long! Ellen has brilliant understanding of nutrition, anatomy & physiology & intuition. As a medical professional–I am humbled by this work. Thank You Ellen!

Debra G.

ellen really impressed me, and bottom-line my mobility, stability, and pain free movement was noticeably better after the treatment!

Mario H.

My session with Ellen was amazing. She is the holy grail of health. All my unanswered questions now have answers. She has created the perfect environment for healing with her vast knowledge, skilled touch and fantastic bedside manner. I am so excited for my
next treatment.

S. S.

I was impressed at how well versed she is in the details of her work and can explain it so clearly in language I understood. Her knowledge of physiology is amazing and her methodology very sensitive and assuring. She got to the heart of my issue and surprised me with the depth of nuances she brings out. Ellen is excellent at explaining the process, and demonstrating/working with me on remedial exercises. I also like her studio a lot –
private, comfortable and easy to park.

Robert D.

Thank you so much Ellen! I had such an amazing session with you! I came for a new scar and not only did you greatly benefit that one, but you also released a 15 year old scar that I didn’t know was limiting me so very much! Thank you for my new body! cant wait to see you again! You have truly gifted hands and are such a graceful healer!

blessings and love, ronne

I am grateful and inspired after meeting with Ellen Heed. She has “golden hands” and an incredible background into the most complex of human conditions. Counselor, practitioner and healer – I feel so blessed to have found her.

Patricia

Without doubt having travelled the world and had many practitioners work on me, she is the best that I have ever have ever experienced.

Nick Reed

I am very grateful to have had this transformational experience around my birth tearing and other old injuries. For the first time in my life I was able to feel a “normal” feeling in my lower body without worry, anxiety, or physical pain. I felt incredibly safe and had permission to experience emotions. I feel like a changed woman that gets her sexuality back and with more power then before! Thanks for the gift of being a witness to holding healing space!

Kelly Meehan

Not hyperbole. Ellen is a master surgeon. Except her hands are the scalpel. She unglued my T band from my quadriceps! What? YES. You heard that right. My last session released my chronic jaw pain. This one seems to have alleviated my lower back issues completely.

W. S.

Ellen’s ability to apply her vast understanding of anatomy in a way that is tailored to each person’s issues is phenomenal. She draws from a knowledge base that runs broad and deep in ‘holistic’ health integration. The mind and body awareness she brings to her practice gives her clients tools for using her work as a foundation for advancing overall health and well being. Plus she’s fun to work with.

Deborah D.

Ellen is by far the most knowledgeable nutrition counselor / person I know. I trust her completely and would recommend a visit.

T. H.

As a Bodyworker myself, there isn’t anyone I trust more than Ellen. Her mastery is unparalleled. To benefit from her knowledge and expertise is a true blessing.

Tiffany Chambers-Goldberg

Ellen’s gift of creating an environment where I felt safe enough to confess things deep within that I had no idea or intention of saying or sharing helps facilitate release, relaxation, and restoration. I love her intellect, compassion, and hands!!

Carola

What Ellen does redefines bodywork. She gets at the root of what locks you in your patterns and untangles them.

Will Shivers

Ellen is amazing. Hands on Healing at its Best! She knew exactly where my trouble spots were and how to bring me relief. Thank you!

George Gonzales

From the onset it felt like I had known Ellen a long time. I have just begun working with her but already dare to believe that I have, at last, found the holder of the key that will open my locked doors. Her healing hands and depth of understanding are a beacon of
light.

Marcella

I have just met Ellen and I think she is a keeper! She was able to make sense out of many health issues I’ve been experiencing over the years. So far they have been rather mysterious in nature but Ellen is helping me understand them and tackle them one by one…. She is kind and attentive; talking to her was a healing experience in itself. She listens and explains patiently. You feel like you are talking to your best friend!

Anna

I have been going to Ellen for bodywork off and on for the past 4 years or so. Without fail, I leave the session with a sense of spaciousness and deep connection to myself. She knows the body so well and her diagnostic talent and her intuitive ability make her a truly outstanding healer. I HIGHLY recommend her work.

Julie G.

Ellen is doing truly pioneering work. I never realized how limited my knowledge of my own anatomy is and how lacking most ob-gyn exams are until Ellen had her hands inside me. It was intense, illuminating and essential healing.

Having lost my libido following a heart attack and years of abstinence (a euphemism for not getting any), Ellen reconnected me to my sexuality. Now I’m enjoying the best sex of my life. I’m still learning about my body from Ellen, and loving every moment of it. Ellen’s my confessor, my guru, my healer. She knows where the wisdom of my body is buried.

Paul Kempf

Ellen has helped me in so many ways over the years. With bodywork with those magical energetic hands. Working out scar tissue where ever it may be, causing a wonderful sense of freedom and release in the body. Her consultations about food have been incredibly helpful, doable and life giving. Ellen’s dedication to healing is inspirational. She has a brilliant scientific mind and is incredibly generous in imparting information. This is a wise and beautiful being.

Fiona

My experience with Ellen was life transforming. I had so many body issues that she addressed one by one. What a relief to come back home with no pressure on my neck, head, arms, and other feminine problems. She was so caring and professional. I would recommend to anybody in a heartbeat. She is a gift from above, no doubt about it.

Dina

For yesterday’s profound inner work…I am so grateful. I had the most amazing healthy erotic dreams. I feel my sacred 1st Chakra open. My kundalini is active again. The Kegel work was great too

For your generous and thoughtful support through my journey of healing. These last months, although difficult, have been such a positive life-altering experience. Thank you for your patient ear, your words of wisdom, sharing your extensive knowledge, your healing touch, and for “holding my hand” in my time of vulnerability. You are an inspiring, amazing, and beautiful woman and I am more than immensely appreciative to be graced with your presence by my side.
