Release. Rebalance. Renew.
Welcome to Your Journey of Healing and Release
Trauma Release Exercises (TRE) are a powerful and transformative approach designed to help you release deep-seated stress, tension, and trauma from your body. At Embody Essence, we are committed to guiding you through this process with care, compassion, and expertise.
What does TRE® stand for ?
TRE® stands for Tension or Trauma Releasing Exercises
What is TRE ?
TRE® is an innovative series of exercises that assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma. Created by Dr. David Bercelli, PhD, TRE® safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. When this muscular shaking/vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance.
How do I learn TRE?
Make sure you learn TRE® with a Certified TRE Provider who is highly trained in the delivering these exercises safely. It is recommended to do at least 4-5 Supervised sessions initially, so that one learns how to self regulate and that the Provider is happy that you can continue with your own practice. Then it is a powerful de-stress tool that you then have for life!
Should I do an Individual or a Group TRE Session ?
You can learn TRE in Group and Individual Sessions. Group Sessions are great for learning the exercises and how to self regulate. It is also highly recommended that you go for some Individual Sessions as it allows the TRE Provider to work with you specifically and follow your unique process of releasing stress, trauma and tension from your body. It is best to opt for an Individual Session if you’re dealing with a lot of trauma in your life or have mental health difficulties. Please check in if you have epilepsy or are pregnant.
Is it possible to do TRE Online ?
Yes TRE is just as effective learnt Online in an Individual or Small Group Session. It can be nice doing it in the comfort of your own home where you have more time to rest and integrate afterwards.
How many sessions would you recommend ?
You will definitely learn a lot and benefit from one session. However, it is highly recommended and beneficial to do at least 4 Sessions to get a thorough grasp of the practice and to ensure that you learn how to do it on your own safely. In the four sessions you will refine and deepen your practice and learn how to self-regulate. You then will have a de-stress practice to take away with you for life!
If you can, joining a regular TRE practice group is a great and fun way to support your TRE journey. Basically, the more often you do this practice (within the specified limits), the more you will benefit. The body aligns, unravels on so many levels; stress, trauma, tension, structural / musculature / fascia re-alignment can take place to give a few examples.

Everyone can benefit from TRE® as the shaking mechanism that TRE triggers is innate behaviour to us as humans. However, we have been socialised to repress this instinct. TRE turns back on this mechanism where the body can naturally heal from stress and trauma.
Whether you are suffering from mild anxiety to PTSD; are a victim of violence, natural disaster, operations or accidents; or simply a person who wants to reclaim vitality and feel better about life, you can benefit from TRE.
