TRE®
Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises

TRE® – Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises is a technique that uses simple exercises to stretch and fatigue certain muscle groups, evoking the body’s natural, involuntary tremor mechanism to gently unravel patterns of tension.
These movements can help release daily stress as well as deeply held tension and trauma, working on neurological, physiological, psychological and emotional levels.

It is evident that mammals in the wild instinctively know how to evoke this tremor mechanism to restore their nervous system back to balance after a traumatic event. It helps them to release the charge stored in their body and bring the event to completion so that they can live from a healthy balanced state, no longer debilitated by the trauma.

TRE® is a practice that is easily accessible to all and can be done by yourself after becoming familiar with the practice under facilitation of a certified provider. We can work together to gradually empower you to implement your TRE self-practice.

DR DAVID BERCELI, THE FOUNDER OF TRE® PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO HOW AND WHY HE CAME TO EXPLORE THE TREMOR MECHANISM.

—

I feel passionately that every human has the right to feel and know that this technique can be accessed. It is a naturally occurring function in all of us that we have suppressed. It has the ability to release stress, restore balance and resolve the fight/flight/freeze responses held in the body that keep us held prisoner to a reactive nervous system.

I have seen and felt this mechanism work it’s magic in myself and many others and it continues to amaze me, how it can reveal what is being suppressed and make space for so much pleasure and joy.

  • “I had such a beautiful and deep TRE session with Jo today. I have done TRE group sessions in the past but never got a lot out of them other than the physical shaking - the session today was very different. Jo’s voice and touch are so reassuring. She guided me so beautifully and held such a safe space that it allowed me to actually process a lot of deep emotional trauma. I felt so much lighter and spacious in my body afterwards. I can only recommend having a session with her - it’s very powerful and healing and I already look forward to the next time.”

  • My first experience of TRE was with Jo. What a magical modality! I had no idea how it would work but somehow, with Jo’s mastery and expertise, my body started to surrender and tremor. The impact of the release carried on for days, both physically and emotionally. Jo knows exactly what is needed to help you get the most out of the practice and holds space with remarkable attunement, humour, warmth, and compassion. I highly recommend her work, and I encourage you to try out TRE!
