TRE with Candace

Tension and Trauma Release Exercises

Whether you're navigating everyday stress, anxiety, burnout, trauma, chronic tension, relationship challenges, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, TRE® offers a gentle way to help your body release what words sometimes cannot.

ABOUT

What is TRE®?

TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) is a gentle body-based technique that helps release deep patterns of stress, tension, and trauma through the body's natural therapeutic tremor response.

Unlike talking about stress, TRE® allows the body to process and release it physically, helping many people experience greater calm, resilience, and emotional balance.

Why TRE® works

Our bodies store far more than we realise.

Everyday stress, emotional challenges, accidents, illness, grief, major life changes, and traumatic experiences can all leave the nervous system in a constant state of protection—even long after the event has passed.

TRE® activates a natural shaking response that mammals have used for thousands of years to discharge stress after threatening situations. Instead of forcing relaxation, TRE® allows the body to release tension in its own way, at its own pace.

Who Can Benefit?

Empower
Growth

TRE® is helpful if you:

Feel constantly stressed or overwhelmed
Struggle to switch off or relax
Experience anxiety or panic
Carry chronic muscle tension
Have difficulty sleeping
Feel emotionally "stuck"
Want to complement counselling or psychotherapy
Have experienced trauma, loss, or significant life changes
Want to improve resilience and overall wellbeing
and so much more...

What happens during a session?

Your TRE® Provider will guide you through a series of gentle exercises designed to safely activate your body's natural tremor mechanism.

You remain fully conscious and in control throughout the session. Everyone's experience is different—some people tremor strongly, others very gently—but the body only releases what it is ready to release.

Sessions are always guided at a pace that feels safe and comfortable for you.

TESTIMONIAL

I did 6 sessions with Candace. I was well informed in how my body has the capacity to regulate itself. She taught us how to perform breathing exercises, bring on the tremors, how to alternate them and how to spend the next few hours after the session.

I'm more intuned with my body now and my sleep has improved. I feel I am developing greater resilience to manage day to day stressors. Also her post-session checkins were awesome! I can tell she really aims to improve her clients lives. Now I will continue to use this stress management tool with the potential of checking in with her in some weeks! I'd suggest anyone to give it a try. Also price was quite reasonable.

I am so grateful for this treatment.
The breathing technique is brilliant because it has helped me during impossible situations. TRE is worth trying compared to medications which only make you feel worse. Over the past two months I can feel the difference in my body.
Thank you Candace for all your help. 💓💓💓

Candace is an exceptional TRE practitioner. She creates such a calm, safe and grounded space that allowed me to fully trust the process. Her guidance is gentle yet confident, and she explains everything clearly, which made the experience feel both empowering and deeply restorative. I felt supported the entire time and noticed a real shift afterwards. I’m so grateful to have found her and would highly recommend her to anyone considering TRE.

Van Echten

TRE (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) has been life-changing for me. The sessions are guided in such a safe and supportive way, allowing the body to naturally release stored stress and tension. I’ve experienced deeper relaxation, better sleep, and a real sense of emotional balance. It’s a gentle yet powerful process that truly helps you reconnect with your body. Also as an athlete (cyclist) it helped me with recovery after intense training sessions as well pre and post races. I highly recommend TRE to anyone wanting to reduce stress and feel more grounded and free.

Services are available in-person or online

Your Six-Session TRE® Journey

Think of your first six sessions as learning a new skill.

Rather than simply attending appointments, you'll be learning how to work with your nervous system. Together we'll explore how your body responds, how to regulate your tremoring, when to pause, and how to create a safe and effective practice that suits your unique needs.

By the end of the recommended six sessions, clients have a solid understanding of TRE® and feel more confident incorporating it into their ongoing wellbeing routine. Some choose to continue with regular guided sessions, while others practise independently and return whenever they feel additional support would be beneficial.
