Meet your host, Erzsi Pongó the founder of Pongo Power personal training in Brooklyn, New York. Our identity is impacted by our self-image and body image...but what happens when we disown or disassociate from our bodies? How do we form a healthy relationship with our bodies in a culture that supports a sedentary lifestyle? On Movement: The Science of The Self, we provide you with the empowerment you need to move your body as you cultivate your sense of self. Through an exploration of the intersections between body image, self-image and identity, we foster conversations about the ever-evolving process of surrendering our sense of self, so we can invent the freedom necessary to transform all three!

“Touch is the body's natural tranquilizer so it has this calming effect,” explains Dr. Emily Splichal, DPM. As a podiatrist, Dr. Emily is well versed in the healing power of touch, especially in relation to the nerves in the feet. To help her clients harness the power of touch, Dr. Emily developed Naboso, a sensory product line.
Naboso first began with a textured mat and has since evolved her products to include textured socks, insoles, hand weights, release tools and more. All of Dr Emily’s products are based on the same texture technology to allow for optimal release of the nerves and increased circulation, particularly in the feet and hands. In addition to assisting with recovery, pain relief, and circulation, touch tools can also help people with PTSD, ADHD, and autism because of their calming effects on the nervous system.
Tune into this week’s episode of Movement: The Science of The Self to learn more about the healing power of touch and how Dr. Emily is improving her patient’s quality of life one touch tool at a time.
