The patient does not re-experience the trauma or emotions involved as it is a non-verbal and non-awareness process where neither the patient or therapist need any details of the traumas involved.

Indeed, most patients find the process so relaxing and enjoyable that they fall into a light sleep whilst being treated.

The process, an explanation?

Dr. P. MacLean's triune model of evolutionary brain development, refers to the earliest and deepest layer of the brain as the reptilian brain, which we also known as the brain stem.  

TP, developed by Dr. Sean O'Geary, appears to work by "bridging" energy centres in the body to stimulate access to the reptilian brain.  It is thought that this is where we "store" our earliest (eg. "in utero" and birthing) traumas as well as those traumas we "never" want to revisit and which we keep buried in the deepest recesses of our consciousness.

Having the trauma, and it doesn't matter that neither the therapist n or the patient know what it is, it then passes by a process called microgenesis (as described by J. Brown of New York Medical Centre, to the surface of the cortex and diffuses into the earths energy field.  Experiments in the USA, using the latest brain scanning technology seem to show this process in action.

Entrainment

When two rhythms, with nearly the same frequencies, become coupled to each other so that they take on the same rhythm, the phenomenon is known as entrainment, ie. two or more pendulums swinging in different time will, if left long enough, begin to swing in rhythm.  They have become entrained.

Therapeutic Entrainment

When the therapist and patient enter into a similar "relaxed state" it is possible for their brain waves to become entrained, and even for both individuals to be entrained with the earth's magnetic field.  When so entrained it should be possible to influence the origin, or "quantum unit" of the microgenetic process. 

Utilising "entrainment" is one of the underlying principles of Triune Processing.

Bodywork

Any hands-on bodyworkers can use TP as part of their usual bodywork protocol.  Once trained and experienced the process becomes and automatic part of treatment yet, if wished, can also be performed as a separate treatment session.

Results

Dr. O'Geary has been using TP on all his patients since 1996 and, almost without exception, they have reported how positively their lives have changed, both physically and emotionally.

The changes

In TP the changes seem to "creep up" on the patient usually becoming profound only when established.  Often it is family, friends or colleagues who first remark on them, as they are very subtle, Likewise, the change from illess to health is subtle and, interestingly often noticed only in retrospect.  Patients seem to use the term "empowered" when describing how they've changed.
