Neurogenic movement, a trauma informed TRE approach

TRE (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) isn’t just about easing tension. It’s also about reorganising it. At times, the aim is to awaken dormant muscles and restore their natural function.

In this episode of Osteo Talk, respected stalwart of the osteopathic community, Dr Denise Cornall (Osteopath) joins physiotherapist and TRE certification trainer Richmond Heath to explore how TRE serves as a powerful approach to reactivating and fine-tuning the body’s natural responses, meeting a spectrum of physical needs.

As a global leader in trauma-informed applications of TRE and neurogenic movement, Richmond explains how the core of TRE lies in spontaneous shaking, often mistaken for anxiety or unease, which is, in fact, a natural and restorative response to stress and trauma.

This natural response to stress or trauma is brought to life with Denise’s personal account of the devastation endured by the bushfire-ravaged Kinglake community. Her experience highlights how TRE fosters a vital shift in perspective: recognising these physical responses not as vulnerabilities, but as pathways to healing and reintegration.

In the lead up to PTSD Awareness Day on 27 June, you will have an opportunity to experience TRE and the trauma-informed use of spontaneous movement & self-organising motion technique for yourself through a guided interactive webinar with Richmond and Denise.
