This groundbreaking work explores how trauma becomes stored in the body and offers practical psychophysiological approaches to healing. Rothschild bridges neuroscience and therapeutic practice, revealing the profound connection between physical sensations and psychological recovery for both clients and practitioners.

Key Themes

• How traumatic memories are encoded in the nervous system and body tissues
• The physiological basis of trauma responses and somatic symptoms
• Practical assessment and treatment techniques grounded in neurobiology
