High quality education and training are essential components in mastering the field of trauma somatic therapy, a powerful approach to healing and recovery resulting from traumatic experiences.

Trauma somatic therapy incorporates our bodies' physical responses and harnesses these to aid the healing of trauma. With an understanding that our nervous systems store traumatic experiences, this therapy encourages a physical response, allowing individuals to release trapped trauma in a safe and controlled environment.


### What is Trauma Somatic Therapy?

Somatic therapy is a type of body-centered therapy that involves the use of physical sensations and non-verbal cues as part of the healing process. The term 'somatic' comes from the Greek 'soma,' which means 'living body'. Trauma somatic therapy specifically addresses the way trauma affects the body.

NB: Quote: "The human body is a storehouse of past experiences, a vault of memories, emotions, and traumas that significantly influence our psychological health in the present moment."


### Key Principles of Trauma Somatic Therapy

The fundamental ideas behind trauma somatic therapy are:

  1. Mind-Body Connection: Our physical body is deeply intertwined with our mental and emotional state. Traumas we've experienced can impact us both physically and psychologically.

  2. Stored Trauma: The body holds onto traumatic experiences, manifesting as various symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic diseases.

  3. Physical Release: Through specific body-focused techniques, individuals can safely release stored traumatic energy leading to healing.


### The Transformative Power of Trauma Somatic Therapy

Trauma somatic therapy has a transformative influence on people living with the aftermath of traumatic experiences. It provides them with unique tools to address the physical symptoms of trauma, thereby liberating them from the chains of past experiences.


### Training in Trauma Somatic Therapy

In-depth training in trauma somatic therapy requires both theoretical knowledge and practical skill-set. Learners are taught principles of neuroscience, physiology, and psychology, and trained in physical techniques to safely guide individuals through trauma release.
