Seattle Manual Therapy

While Roger Tolle is in town, we're excited to offer this special bonus workshop. If you're making the trip to Seattle, give yourself the full experience. Join us for the complete 4-day Mentastics workshop and stay for the Power of the Pelvis workshop. This is a rare opportunity to learn from one of the most experienced teachers in Trager Somatic Therapy.

Discover the power of the pelvis as the foundation for grounded, graceful movement and greater body awareness.

Using the principles of Trager® Somatic Therapy, this workshop explores how gentle, rhythmic movement can release tension, reduce stress, and cultivate ease, balance, and fluidity. Through personal movement explorations, partner games, and hands-on practice, you'll deepen your awareness of the feet, legs, hips, and pelvis while discovering new freedom in movement and presence.

Whether you're looking to enrich your bodywork practice or simply experience more connection and ease in your own body, this class offers practical tools for mindful movement and mind-body integration.

✨ Includes 4 hours of hands-on work and 4 hours of movement exploration.

Hope to see you in November!

Before science had words like neuroplasticity and dolorology , Dr. Milton Trager discovered that by introducing gentle, pleasurable movement, the nervous system can learn new patterns of ease, releasing unnecessary tension and restoring freer, more effortless movement.

Trager® isn't just bodywork. It's a powerful way to help people feel lighter, freer, and more connected to their bodies. Whether you're looking to deepen your healing practice or start a new career, Trager® Level 1 Certification is your first step toward learning this life-changing approach.

Move beyond relaxation. Discover what's possible when the nervous system feels safe.

📅 Join us September 23 - 29 and experience the Trager® approach. Your clients, and even your own body, will thank you.

What if your hands could communicate safety so clearly that your clients’ nervous systems finally listen?

Discover the power of touch as a language through The Trager® Approach – a gentle, transformative method that enhances trauma-informed care and supports lasting healing.

This 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.

We’ll also incorporate somatic movement exercises, Trager® “Mentastics” that build on the gains achieved during the table work session, empowering your clients to engage with their world differently and transform their human experience.

This Introductory Workshop serves as a prerequisite for the Trager® Level 1 Training leading towards certification as a Trager® Practitioner.
