Trager® Certification Program Prerequisites
Prior to applying for the Trager® certification program, applicants are required to attend an Introductory Workshop. We also strongly recommend that applicants receive one or more Trager® professional sessions prior to applying to fully experience this modality.
- Students enrolling in this training need to be a licensed professional in one of the following professions: massage, naturopathy, chiropractic, acupuncture, midwifery, physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, osteopathy or be some form of healthcare provider which allows a provider to do massage.
- Massage school students (or other appropriate healthcare students) who are still in school, or who are just graduated but not yet licensed, may apply with instructor approval.
- Enrolling students need to be physically able to complete classes and homework as assigned.
- Enrolling students need to have practical resources in place (time, financial, emotional, work, family, etc) to fully participate in these programs and to support the personal development work that often accompanies this training.
Any Trager® Introductory Workshop taught by any Trager® instructor meets the prerequisite requirement. Some of the other instructors who teach Introductory Workshops are: Jack Blackburn, Michael Lear, Roger Tolle, Eileen Dickenson, Gwen Crowell, Deane Juhan, Gail Stewart, Roger Hughes, and Judy Fasone. This is not an all inclusive list of all current and past Trager® Instructors.
