The Trager® Approach
Movements are never forced so
there is no induced pain or
discomfort to the client.
Tablework
During a 60-90 minute session first you receive gentle, rhythmic movement and touch that supports you in deep relaxation and in easier and more free physical mobility then the Trager practitioner will teach you to actively explore comfortable, free movement—called Mentastics—on your own.
During the table work session the client is passive and lying on a comfortably padded table. The practitioner moves the client in ways he or she would naturally move, and with a quality of touch and movement that allows the client to experience the feeling of moving effortlessly and freely on his/her own.
Mentastics®
This quality of effortless movement is maintained and reinforced by simple, active, self-induced movements that you can do on your own, during your daily activities—called Mentastics. They have the same intent as the table work in terms of releasing deep-seated patterns.
Your practitioner can lead you in Mentastics movements that affirm and continue the freedom of movement you felt during the tablework.
Because many of the effects of The Trager Approach are cumulative, clients most often appreciate and will benefit most from a series of sessions.
During a Trager session, you, the client will experience gentle,
non-intrusive, natural movements to
• support the release of deep-seated physical and mental patterns
• facilitate deep relaxation
• increase physical mobility
• foster mental clarity
• experience increasingly free and easy movement
