TRAGER—undoing at its best

We do and do and do. In all our doing we pattern. Some patterns serve us. Some don’t. Conditioning, trauma, injury, and illness can erode our natural freedom—often so gradually that it is forgotten.  Trager® gently restores this freedom.  

Through rhythmic, wave-like movement, the body is invited into flow and deep relaxation, allowing long-held patterns to dissolve without force. The body is reminded how it should be—necks glide, shoulders settle, arms swing, ribs rise, bellies soften, spines lengthen, hips sway, knees rebound, and feet reanimate. Joints decompress, muscles melt, fascia balances, stagnation flows, the nervous system recalibrates, and the mind downshifts.

Prevailing effects clients report are freedom from pain and chronic tension, freer movement, increased range of motion, improved posture, a sense of expansion, feeling where numbness was, emotional release, fuller breath, more restful sleep, deep peace, renewal, centeredness, joy, and a friendlier relationship with oneself and gravity. While a single session may feel revelatory, the work is cumulative, with each session refining and deepening the body’s capacity for ease.

Sessions often open or close with simple movement explorations that educate and empower you to replace old habits of holding on with new ways of letting go.  As effort yields to grace, a more peaceful way of being emerges—one that continues to soften how you inhabit yourself and move through the world.
