Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises

Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) – alternative method of PTSD (Posttraumatic stress disorder) treatment. Physical exercises that aim to cause neurogenic vibrations of body, allowing to reduce stress, unload tension and decrease intensity of PTSD symptoms. The method proved to be efficient in cases of so-called shock trauma, generated by different accidents. Unlike traditional methods of PTSD treatment, e.g. cognitive behavioral therapy, TRE can be performed by a subject of treatment by himself.

The creator and promoter of the method is an American therapist, David Berceli.
