Tension Stress Trauma Release (TRE)

"The body records all personal history, even if the conscious mind does not."

— Dr Bessel Van Der Kolk

Imagine a calmer mind, less anxiety, a healthier body, happier relationships and greater resilience in life and work. TRE can help you with this and more! Developed by Dr. David Berceli, TRE is a powerful method for experiencing relief from stress, tension and trauma, by releasing deeply held tension in your body. TRE safely activates the body’s natural reflex mechanism of shaking/vibrating releasing muscular tension, which in turn will calm your nervous system. It is based on the fundamental idea, backed by research, that stress, tension and trauma is both psychological and physical. Therefore, this somatic based modality focuses on the physiology of the body instead of the psychology (and it is a wonderful way to complement talking therapies).

Can I still get the same benefits from an online session?

One of the many benefits of online TRE® sessions is that they can be taken in the comfort of your own home. When TRE® is practised in an environment that feels safe, it can support a deep sense of rest, relaxation and ease.

CONTRAINDICATIONS & DISCLAIMER​

TRE is suitable for most people, all levels of fitness and is a safe and very empowering process, provided you work within your limitations. However, there are some conditions in which TRE is not suitable or requires extra care.

 

It is not suitable if you have epilepsy, are pregnant, have had operation/recent injuries in the last 6-8 weeks, have physical limitations that prevent you from doing exercises, have a peacemaker, are on heavy medication for mental health and if you have severe trauma without other support and unable to self-regulate (unable to calm down when experiencing emotional distress). While TRE offers a range of benefits, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for any specific medical concerns.
