QUESTION:
Is TRE permissible in terms of Shariah?
ANSWER:
Tension and Trauma Releasing exercises are a simple yet innovative series of exercises that assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension, and trauma. TRE safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. When this muscular shaking / vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the body is encouraged to return to a state of balance.
If the treatment comprises of only exercises as explained above, then it will be permitted with the proviso that there aren’t any un-Islamic practices attached to it, and the females exercise within the confines of the home. If the exercise is accompanied with any un-Islamic practices, or females are required to emerge from their homes, then it will not be permissible.
