“Diane's skills as a healer can only be experienced to be understood. I have had Watsu therapy many times at Harbin Springs, the birthplace of the art. Not once has any therapist even come close to the profoundness of the healing experience Diane guides you through. A combination of skill in understanding injury and anatomy, the grace/finesse of uncompromisable master of the art of human touch/massage therapy, and the energetic healing wisdom and calmness of a shaman.
I am truly grateful to have her living in my area, and will someday have her teach me.” November 18, 2009

“I've had the honor of receiving several Watsu's from Diane over the years. This was one of the most powerful and illuminating experiences in my Life! At times I felt as though I were a dolphin, then a fetus back in the womb (hmmm ... 98 degree water) - No Joke. Transcendent is another word that comes to mind.
If you are in the Santa Barbara California area, and are looking for a new type of experience, give Diane a call.” January 27, 2011

Al Marcelline, hired Diane as a Water Therapy in 2006, and hired Diane more than once
“The work I did with Diane over the course of Winter of 2007 to Fall of 2009 was magical. I was able to release fears I had of being in the water and saw parts of my body reintegrate with the general integrity of my being. The water release work with Diane works with psychoanalytical work, exploring different issues with relationships, and challenges in one's life. She is a joy to work with and holds the space so kindly, warmly and with such strength.

“I have known Diane Feingold for many years as a yoga instructor,
Watsu®/WaterDance & Water Release Therapist and Instructor. Each and every time she has worked with me, there have been profound effects. Not long ago, I had a Watsu session that was out of this world. Not only did it help relieve and dissipate nerve problems I had from a tennis injury, but the overall experience was of the sublime kind. It was almost like being reborn. How great to have an instructor here in the southern part of the state of such high caliber who comes directly from Harold Dull's tutelage! Highly recommended!” January 23, 2011
