The Anatomy of Trauma
This course consists of 10 experiential anatomy modules that take us through the human body from the feet up. We will explore the anatomical structures and functions as well as dive into how trauma affects each and how we can utilise this knowledge for our own health and when working with clients.

What’s inside
Module 1: Feet and Legs
In this foundational module, we dive deep into a part of the body that often goes overlooked—the feet. Our feet are the essential foundation of our entire body, supporting our weight, maintaining balance, and allowing us to move through the world with ease and grace. Yet, many of us rarely give them the attention and care they deserve.
Module 2: Pelvis and Psoas
In this module, we journey upward from the feet and legs to focus on a profoundly important area of the body often called the seat of our emotions—the pelvis and the psoas muscle. The pelvis serves as the central hub connecting the upper and lower body, supporting our core strength, stability, and movement.
You’ll learn techniques to release stored tension, cultivate awareness, and restore balance to this powerful area of the body.
Module 3: Abdomen, Lower Back, Adrenals, Stress Release
The abdomen houses vital organs, including the adrenals, which regulate our stress response and overall energy levels. The lower back supports our spine and absorbs much of the tension we carry, especially during times of stress.
This module is designed to help you reconnect with your core strength and learn how to release stress stored in the body, fostering deeper relaxation and balance.
