NRRT™ Training
Neuro Rocking Release Therapy™ CPD Training: 12th-14th March 2026, Darwen, UK
Revolutionise your practice with a science-based, neuro-somatic approach
NRRT™ stands as medically applied rocking. It is a gentle form of bodywork, employing bilateral brain stimulation to reset the central nervous system (CNS) by harmonising responses from the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems (P-SNS), aimed to reset an overwhelmed mind and body. Rooted in extensive clinical practice, scientific research, particularly modern neuroscience, applies Gestalt psychotherapy principles, medically applied neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), with a strong influence from Chinese medicine theory.
NRRT™ offers profound effects for individuals grappling with elevated stress levels, PTSD, CPTSD, chronic pain, emotional dysregulation, sleep disorders, and conditions exacerbated by stress-induced sympathetic nervous system overload, triggering fight/flight/freeze/friend responses.
As a therapist, this is a great tool that requires no specialised equipment, oils, needles or overheads, only your hands, knowledge, willingness to aid and capacity to hold space for the recipient of the technique.
We warmly invite the NRRT™ family to continue expanding! This method holds relevance for its non-invasiveness, gentle approach to healing in contrast to more forceful methods or beliefs that healing has to be explosive and exuberant, and its precise targeting of trauma’s locus: the body and its nervous system. Come join us as we strive to extend our reach and positively impact more lives.

What our visitors Say
EXCELLENT Based on 36 reviews Linda MacFarlane2024-01-29 Ana is not only an absolute massage guru, but she has a beautiful and welcoming presence. One of the best massages I've had. She's so knowledgeable, and thorough, explaining what my issue was, and working to alleviate some of my pain. I'll most definitely be back again soon. Thanks Ana! 😊 Martin Simpson2024-01-19 There is no doubt Ana has some magic in her hands. I have had a few muscle and nerve issues, Ana takes her time to really understand your problems and find the most appropriate treatment to get you back to full health. You can tell Ana really cares about her clients wellbeing and their healing. I trust her and that is an important thing for me. Jie Rao2024-01-14 Ana is so good at acupuncture and she helped me survived with my study life. I was born in a city where acupuncture and herbal medicine are the common practice when people get sick. I know it is effective and has minimum side effects towards health. So I tried with Ana and it turned out that Ana is really good! She cared about all my symptoms, which gone fast after the treatment. On top of that, she explains and communicates very well, which is rare to see. It was luck for me to have her! Steve Page2023-11-01 I hurt my hip lifting logs. After two weeks the pain was showing no sign of reducing and was getting me down. I was able to book a session with Ana within a few days. Ana took a thorough history and then proceeded with acupuncture treatment. After the first session the pain reduced significantly and with two further sessions it is now almost gone. Ana was kind, informative and professional throughout. I recommend Ana very highly. Isha Fois2023-10-29 Ana’s session was really beautiful. Ana made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. The rocking movement brought a lot of harmony and positive childhood memories came to me. I felt very well and energised after the session. Really recommended for rebalancing and coming back to yourself. Sophie Lane2023-10-08 Probably the best massage I've ever had. Ana was lovely and so welcoming. The Indian head massage was next level. The amount of tension that has been released from my head is amazing. About to re book. Can't recommend this enough! Louise Myra Barker2023-10-05 I’ve been embarking on Ana’s pioneering neuro rocking release therapy. It’s been incredible - I can literally feel my anxiety and stress disperse during the sessions. I feel better in myself and more grounded. Not experienced anything like this before, Ana is a real healer, highly recommend! Radka Skodova2023-09-02 Great experience! Really enjoyed the relaxing benefits of neurorocking treatment. I felt renewed and more in touch with my own body. It had a releasing effect on my lower back. Patrick Quinn2023-04-13 Ana is a God send, I have previously had wonderful massage sessions with her then mentioned the pain I was experiencing in my arthritic knees, she suggested acupuncture, so I thought why not! The first session I had completely removed all pain from my knees, I have just had my second, to ensure the pain stays away. All this with a smile, a laugh and a lot of learning on my part. Thank you Ana
