THE TRAGER METHOD

The effect of this work is simultaneously deep relaxation and presence, an improvement in neuromuscular functions, increased concentration and a calming of the mind.
BODY BASED THERAPY
Trager is a relaxing form of body therapy that uses integrative touch and movement exploration to address unconscious patterns in the body and mind. The body's ability to self-regulate and heal itself is supported. Trager Therapy is understood as a learning experience and effective health care.
FASCIA AND AUTONOMOUS NERVOUS SYSTEM
Trager works primarily at the level of the fascia and the autonomic nervous system. Through soft and clear touch, rocking movements, and light compression, clients are invited to experience relaxation, elasticity, and freedom of movement. Blocking posture patterns and tensions that often cause pain can be released.
The experience of lightness and effortlessness is integrated into the body’s memory and is always available.
MENTASTICS
A Trager treatment consists of a combination of work on the table and a special type of gymnastics that Milton Trager called "Mentastics" (mental gymnastics). Mentastics involves effortless movement sequences and playing with gravity. These simple, playful movements can be learned to consciously integrate the feeling of increased mobility and lightness into everyday life.
BENEFITS
With its gentle and sensitive approach, Trager is effortless, painless and therefore suitable for people of all ages.
