Trauma Release Exercises (TRE)®

"All humans have an innate capacity to heal from traumatic experiences. We as a species are genetically encoded with the capacity to heal ourselves." -Dr. David Berceli

TRE is a series of exercises created by Dr. David Berceli that can assist the body in releasing tension, stress, and trauma held in the body. Stressful life events, whether acute or chronic, leave an imprint on our bodies. If we don’t have the resources to release the stress, it can leave a long-term impact. The tremoring mechanism that is activated during TRE can help the body to unwind these tension patterns and restore ease, calm, and a sense of safety.

I introduce TRE in a series of 3 sessions, after which it can become your own personal practice.

  • “I am so grateful to find Kyla and TRE. Coming out of a two year period of intense stress due to a family mental health crisis, I was experiencing daily headaches, tension, and trauma symptoms. Kyla is accepting, knowledgeable, and skilled in thoroughly explaining everything in both a psychological and physiological context. Over 3 sessions, she helped me to identify how TRE would work best for my body and transition to using it on my own. This treatment started an entirely new chapter for me - I had no idea how crucial the psoas muscle was to my wellbeing, or how long I've held tension there. I no longer have headaches and my daily tension levels have decreased significantly since beginning the treatment. I wish everyone knew about TRE.” -Eliza

  • “I reached out to Kyla to learn about Trauma Release Exercises while I was in the process of leaving a very toxic marriage. Kyla’s instruction and time with me, was filled with kindness, compassion, and care and her sessions were extremely helpful.  I appreciated the opportunity to learn TRE in the comfort of my own home via zoom and look forward to continuing to use this practice to aid in my healing and keep me healthy in the future.  Thank you, Kyla!”
