TRE®: is an innovative series of exercises that helps the body release deeply held tension, stress, & trauma. Developed by David Berceli, PhD, TRE® safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. The exercises are safe and can be modified for almost all body types. 

TRE® is being taught in 35 countries and is presently being studied by the Veterans Administration. After doing TRE®, many people report feelings of peace and well-being.

A Typical Session Starts by stretching and fatiguing muscles in the feet, and legs that are connected to the fight/flight/freeze response.  These exercises help initiate your body’s own self-healing tremor.  Once the therapeutic tremor begins, you will lie comfortably on a mat and allow your body to release tension, stress and trauma.  You can book your individual session here:

Testimonials

“More than hope: Johanna is a kind, happy, and gifted healer.  After years of trauma, I hoped to find relief through her TRE program to unlock trapped energies from trauma.  I went through 7 exercises with Jo and experienced shaking in my legs.  All in all, I didn’t feel much different at the end of the session.  But that night as I sat quietly in a chair, I experienced such a beautiful sense of calm and peace in my body, and I slept through the entire night, the first time in many years.  It was amazing!”

“Johanna is an absolute pleasure to work with.  She radiates positive energy, has a great sense of humor and most importantly—she knows her craft.  I went to her to teach me TRE.  Each session was filled with very useful info and she teaches really well—with patience, customized to my needs and abilities, and by serving as an example.  She loves what she’s doing and does it really well.  For her it’s not about having patients come back over and over and over, but about assisting in true healing.
