About TRE® is an innovative series of exercises that helps the body release deeply held tension, stress, & trauma. Created by David Berceli, PhD, TRE® safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. All mammals have this instinctual healing response which neuroscientists call the “freeze discharge” (Scaer, 2010.) The exercises are safe and can be modified for almost all body types. TRE® is a cutting edge treatment that is being taught in 37 countries and is presently being studied by the Veterans Administration. After doing TRE®, many people report feelings of peace and well-being.
