A Nervous System–Led Approach

Heal the Hidden Wound:
Somatic Trauma & PTSD Recovery

Trauma is not just a memory; it is biology. Resolve the “frozen” fight-flight-freeze responses encoded in your body.

When the Past is Present

Trauma encodes implicit memory in your tissues, leading to:

Flashbacks & Hypervigilance

Being constantly on guard for danger.

Dissociation

Feeling numb, checked out, or disconnected from your body.

Rage or Collapse

Sudden shifts from explosive anger to complete exhaustion.

Why Talking Isn't Enough

Trauma is stored in the body as implicit memory. Talk therapy accesses the “story,” but often misses the physical “feeling” of the trauma. This is why you can talk about it for years and still feel triggered.
Think of it like this:
Trauma is like a defensive cycle that was started but never completed. BioCoding™ helps the system finish that cycle so the “armor” can dissolve.

The Frozen Defense

Trauma involve a failure of the body’s natural calming response.

The Freeze

Your system gets stuck in a "freeze" state or constant alert.

BioCoding™ Intervention

We facilitate the safe discharge of this stored survival energy.

The BioCoding™ Approach

Integration, Not Reliving

BioCoding™ allows for Trauma Integration. We use micro-movements to “thaw” the frozen dorsal vagal states. This allows the nervous system to complete the defensive cycle it started years ago, dissolving the armour you didn’t know you wore.

Felt safe in the body

Rebecca came to me carrying the weight of complex trauma from childhood. Dissociation, sudden emotional triggers, and a deep sense of disconnection had shaped her relationships and daily life for years.

Over the course of the programme, her nervous system began to soften and settle. As the sessions progressed, the dissociation faded, emotional triggers lost their charge, and a sense of connection slowly returned.

By the end of the work together, Rebecca felt grounded in her body in a way she never had before. She described feeling calmer, safer, and more present in her life and relationships.

“My nervous system finally felt safe in my body. BioCoding™ dissolved the armour I didn’t know I wore.”

The Programme

Through the The Recode programme, we use gentle micro-movements to foster “glial modulation” calming the immune cells in your nervous system that cause inflammation.

01

No Forcing

Essential when trust and safety are being rebuilt.

02

Micro-Movements

Gentle gestures without intense manipulation or re-exposure.

03

Survival Pattern Modulation

Addressing frozen defensive responses and discharging them safely at a neurological level.

04

Nervous-System Integration

Gradually expanding your capacity for safety and presence.

Your Questions Answered

What is 'Somatic' therapy?

Somatic means “of the body.” We treat trauma as a physical event in the nervous system, not just a psychological event in the mind.

We prioritise safety. By working within your “window of tolerance” and focusing on the discharge of energy rather than the story, we minimise the risk of retraumatisation.

Yes. CPTSD often involves deep “dysregulation” and dissociation. BioCoding is specifically designed to address these complex, layered states.

EMDR focuses on eye movements to process memories. BioCoding uses full-body geometric micro-movements to release stored tension and regulate the autonomic state.
