SUMMARY:SOMATIC NEUROREGULATION - FOR TRAUMA\, VETERANS\, AND PTSD
DESCRIPTION:We’ll learn transforming trauma-informed care for lasting healing utilizing The Trager® Approach\, Positional Release\, and Polyvagal Theory.\n\n\nThis class invites massage and somatic practitioners to explore the profound impact of non-verbal touch in restoring trust\, releasing chronic tension\, and awakening the body’s innate resilience.\nGrounded in the principles of Presence\, Co-regulation\, Neuroplasticity\, and empowerment through movement\, Trager® integrated with Positional Release  has demonstrated significant benefits for those dealing with PTSD\, musculoskeletal and chronic pain\, addiction\, anxiety\, and emotional overwhelm.  \nLearn to create safety through rhythmic\, effortless movement\, presence-based touch and holds\, and meeting clients where they are—without force or agenda. When the body feels invited rather than fixed\, true change occurs.\n\n“We’ll also incorporate Trager somatic movement exercises that build on the gains achieved during table work\, empowering your clients to engage with their world differently and transform their human experience.\nIf you’re ready to enhance your practice with greater depth\, compassion\, and clinical effectiveness\, this class is your gateway. Join us to elevate your skills and become part of a community committed to making a meaningful difference.\n \n\nThis NCBTMB accredited workshop also serves as a prerequisite for the Trager® Level 1Training leading towards certification as a Trager® Practitioner.\n \nAbout Michael: Michael Lear works with veterans and others managing effects of trauma and has been published on the subject. A Trager® Instructor\, Michael has been practicing Trager® and other forms of bodywork since 1987. A dedicated mindfulness adherent (Vipassana Meditation as taught by S.N.

SUMMARY:DEEPENING SOMATIC PRESENCE
DESCRIPTION:From our deepened Somatic Presence arises greater effectiveness\, creativity and pain-free work at the table. Our clients come for integration and healthy movement. What better way to transmit this then working from our own pain-free flow? Leveraging insights from Trauma Informed Touch and the Trager Approach\, we’ll harmonize our client’s nervous system’s and maximize tissue change all while balancing our own systems. \n  \nLearn to: \n• Impact joints\, organs\, fascia and fluids\n• Increased proprioceptive reintegration\n• determine restrictions three dimensionally\n• simultaneously affect local and global change\n• trauma informed touch promotes neuroceptive safety\n• leverage the sensory-motor system for resolution of pain \n \nWhat is Trauma Informed Touch?\nAn approach that focuses on the client’s sense of somatic safety throughout the session. While conveyed verbally\, through skilled\, receptive touch and attention\, we’re able to transmit safety to the nervous system beyond words\, and which promotes muscular release harmonized with the nervous system rather than at the expense of it. \n  \n \nWhat is Trager?\nTrager is a unique\, neuromuscular approach to bodywork and movement re-patterning. The tablework consists of deep\, fluid rocking movements (oscillations) of muscles and joints combined with compression and gentle traction. This feeds into the nervous system resulting in dramatic muscular relaxation\, along with feelings of lightness\, freedom and flexibility. The client is also shown simple exercises called mentastics which helps integrate the profound changes in the body. \n \nMilton Trager\, MD\, who became aware of the basic principles at the age of 18\, spent over 50 years refining this unique approach to somatic movement therapy and bodywork\, achieving high levels of success with effects of Parkinson’s\, MS\, Post Polio Syndrome\, Back Pain\, Migraine’s\, and Chronic Pain\, while helping patients reconnect to their inherent sense of ageless\, ease and joy of movement. \n  \n \nInstructor:\nJoseph Rodin is a licensed massage therapist\, psychotherapist\, and certified Trager® practitioner. His somatic background includes intensive study of Trager®\, along with extensive coursework in osteopathic inspired manual therapy methods. Joseph took his first Trager® course in 1995 and returned to later to become certified in 2010. Since then\, he has taught numerous Trager® introductory classes\, mentored with and assisted senior Trager® instructors\, been a Trager® Tutor and is the past President of the US Trager® Association and past member of the Board of Directors for Trager International. He’s presented on Trager and TMJ at Trager Conferences live\, virtually\, and for the Tragerology organization. \nDiscount: Bring a friend or colleague discount: $25. Use coupon code frnd.
