Trager® work is a gentle, profound, hands-on approach to wellness. The practitioner uses wave-like movements and rocking to enhance the client's fluidity and comfortable range of movement, lulling the body/mind into deep relaxation.

 

What to expect during a session:

The client remains clothed during the session and should wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing appropriate for stretching. No oils or lotions are used.

 

As with a massage you will relax on the table and remain passive as the practitioner works with your body, head to toe, front and back; lengthening and lifting the limbs, giving them a sense of weightlessness; gently rocking them, releasing tension in the joints; pleasantly wobbling the tissues, releasing more held tension. At times the practitioner will be propping themselves on the table to leverage a limb; maybe straddling the table above your head to better work on your shoulders and neck.

The effects of the session are to give you a sense of freer, greater relaxation in your movement; increasing your sensory awareness, letting you recall what it’s like in your “kid” body again.

​

Sessions may include movement coaching to give the client suggestions of ways for you to play with and explore movement for self-care and health awareness.
