The Therapeutic Training Center is hosting a Trager Certification Program with Level 1 options taught by Joseph Rodin, MA, LMHC, LMT, Trager Practitioner, Tutor and Instructor. Dr. Milton Trager recognized--well before contemporary knowledge on neuroplasticity, autonomic regulation and current pain science--that new information introduced to areas in the unconscious mind, gently and with skill, activates positive neurological changes which improve movement patterns and decreases pain. He referred to his work as Psychophysical Integration. A mental, emotional and physical education, Trager; sends clients into the world with the physical efficiency and coordination that leads to effortless movement. Milton Trager called this feeling a place beyond relaxation, a place of peace. Why This Trager Certification: This Certification Program is expressly designed for students who want to develop Trager as a primary modality in their practice. It offers highly focused, in-depth training with the exploration, supervision, and feedback necessary for students to establish a successful Trager practice. Being certified also allows the practitioner to market themselves with a tangible credential. Upon certification, with their permission, the US Trager Association lists practitioners on its website as part of its referral network.
