The Trager® Approach
The Trager® Approach uses gentle rocking movements to encourage relaxation & release of muscle tension. Trager® Practitioners work with a painless, light touch & minimal pressure, coaxing painful areas to release.
If you feel discomfort, the Trager® practitioner backs off & works more lightly. Trager® has been shown to enhance the immune system response and calm the nervous system.
Trager® is useful for easing tension and stress of all kinds - and for mobilizing tight and restricted areas of the body. It is also beneficial for the lymphatic system.
