Trauma & Tension Release Exercises (TRE®)

Reconnect with your body's natural capacity to release tension and restore regulation.

Our bodies naturally hold stress and tension, especially after prolonged periods of overwhelm, trauma or chronic pressure. Sometimes, despite our best efforts to relax, our nervous system continues to stay on high alert. Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE®) is a gentle series of exercises designed to activate the body's natural tremoring response, helping to release muscular tension and support nervous system regulation.

Created by Dr. David Berceli, Tension or Trauma Release Exercises (TRE) is a set of exercises which evoke the psoas muscles to release deep tension and stress. TRE is an excellent tool for stress management and to improve self-regulation. Many have benefited from it and have had a greater sense of wellness.

Who might benefit:

Individuals experiencing chronic stress or burnout
People recovering from overwhelming life events
Those living with persistent muscle tension
Individuals seeking to improve nervous system regulation
People looking to complement psychotherapy or other healing practices
Anyone curious about a body-based approach to wellbeing

What to expect:

During a TRE session, you’ll be guided through a series of simple exercises designed to gently fatigue specific muscle groups. This may allow the body’s natural tremoring response to emerge.

Sessions are facilitated at your own pace. You’re always in control, and the exercises can be paused or modified at any time. The focus is not on forcing a release but on helping your nervous system discover greater regulation and flexibility over time.

Our Approach:

At Soulmatics, TRE is not simply about inducing tremors. It is offered through a trauma-informed and nervous-system-informed lens, with careful attention to safety, pacing and each individual’s capacity for regulation. We believe lasting change happens when the body feels supported rather than pushed.
