“…The results highlight specific characteristics in the functioning of women who experience a conflictual relation: living in a violent relationship determines a normalization of what one has suffered, implying interpersonal modalities characterized by a difficulty in recognizing the danger as it is cognitively normalized and physiologically coded incorrectly. This condition is consistent with previous work in the literature that analysed the functioning of women through electrophysiological data [ 31 ].…”

“…A phenomenon capable of highlighting this relationship could be intimate partner violence (IPV), which is defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as ‘physical violence, sexual assault, stalking and psychological assault (including coercive acts) by a current or previous intimate partner’ [ 26 ]. The IPV experience is highly stressful for the victims [ 27 ], triggering relevant consequences on their functioning at the behavioural [ 28 ], neuropsychological and cognitive [ 29 , 30 , 31 ], emotional [ 32 ], and physiological [ 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ] levels. However, there is not always a correspondence between biological reactions to stress and their subjective perception, because the latter is filtered by factors such as self-awareness and the subjective meaning given to what is experienced.…”

The perception of body and social odours (SOP) is crucial for interpersonal chemosensory signalling and mate choice, yet little is known about the role of the SOP on the quality of partnerships and the attachment style. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the SOP in women’s stress responses by considering the role of biopsychosocial variables in the quality of interpersonal relationships (also considering intimate partner violence). In total, 253 women filled out an online survey that included a series of questionnaires to investigate self-perceived stress (PSS), emotional regulation (ERQ), olfactory social assessment (SOS), quality of partnership (RRQ), attachment style (RQ), and the Conflict Tactile Scale 2 (CTS-2). The main results highlight that a high awareness of social odours correlates with a good quality of relationship and with an emotional regulation capacity; the PSS correlates negatively with the ERQ (i.e., as the PSS increases, the ERQ decreases). The level of IPV predicts an interpersonal style characterized by a low desire to develop meaningful relationships but with a tendency to depend on and trust another. The idea of being hurt by the other is not central in women who experience this type of relationship. The study’s main conclusion is that social odour perception is important for emotional regulation and in partner relationships.

“…The verbal aspect loses value within a homeostatic process, which instead flows into the somatic system [26,41,42]. This can happen in terms of both awareness and habituation, in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and also in situations of chronic violence (e.g., domestic violence) [43]. To give meaning to one's existence, the individual designs, produces, and creates satisfying relationships.…”

Recent studies highlight how body psychotherapy is becoming highly cited, especially in connection with studies on trauma-related disorders. This review highlights the theoretical assumptions and recent points in common with embodied simulation and new sensory theories by integrating bioenergetic analysis, embodiment, and olfactory memory in trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) therapy. Embodied memory, rooted in sensorimotor experiences, shapes cognitive functions and emotional responses. Trauma, embodied in somatic experiences, disrupts these processes, leading to symptoms such as chronic pain and dissociation. The literature discussed highlights the impact of burning odors on individuals with PTSD and those who have experienced childhood maltreatment. Burning odors can increase stress and heart rate in war veterans, with sensitivity to these odors intensifying over time since the trauma. Additionally, adults who experienced childhood maltreatment exhibit faster processing of unpleasant odors and increased symptom severity. Grounding techniques, such as adopting a balanced posture, enhance breathing and sensory capabilities, potentially aiding in managing symptoms associated with trauma-related disorders such as PTSD.
