For both clinicians and their clients there is tremendous value in understanding the psychophysiology of trauma and knowing what to do about its manifestations. This book illuminates that physiology, shining a bright light on the impact of trauma on the body and the phenomenon of somatic memory. It is now thought that people who have been traumatized hold an implicit memory of traumatic events in their brains and bodies. That memory is often expressed in the symptomatology of posttraumatic stress disorder-nightmares, flashbacks, startle responses, and dissociative behaviors. In essence, the body of the traumatized individual refuses to be ignored. While reducing the chasm between scientific theory and clinical practice and bridging the gap between talk therapy and body therapy, Rothschild presents principles and non-touch techniques for giving the body its due. With an eye to its relevance for clinicians, she consolidates current knowledge about the psychobiology of the stress response both in normally challenging situations and during extreme and prolonged trauma. This gives clinicians from all disciplines a foundation for speculating about the origins of their clients' symptoms and incorporating regard for the body into their practice. The somatic techniques are chosen with an eye to making trauma therapy safer while increasing mind-body integration. Packed with engaging case studies, The Body Remembers integrates body and mind in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder. It will appeal to clinicians, researchers, students, and general readers.

CA Somerset

Detailed and valuable look at how to help a traumatised person without making things worse

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 October 2019

Verified Purchase

In the first half of the book the author explains the science of trauma in the body and brain and makes many interesting points, such as the idea that PTSD might in fact be a dissociative disorder. She gives the basic brain science, mentions attachment and development. She looks into different kinds of memory such as state-dependent recall; sensory recall; the sense of the internal body systems and the awareness of coordination and movement.

In the rest of the book there are considerations of how to work with a traumatised person without making things worse. She explains how to pay careful attention to their levels of anxiety and resilience and know when to turn the focus away from the traumatic memories.

An excellent, in-depth yet concise introduction to trauma

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 January 2014

Verified Purchase

I am immensely impressed with this book. As a psychotherapist, I found it very useful not only to help me understand my clients' experience of trauma on a physiological, psychological and emotional level, but it also helped me to find the right words to explain to them what they were experiencing.

Babette Rothschild uses accessible language to explain really complex terms; her writing is really easy to understand and she enriches the text with case studies and examples from her own professional experience of helping people to overcome the debilitating effects of trauma and PTSD.

I would only caution those readers who find it very difficult to grasp neuroscience concepts- I am inclined towards neuroscience and therefore found it quite easy to follow the text. It is made easier by diagrams and explanatory notes; however if you are really struggling with these terms, you might find the book slightly more challenging than you expected.

Either way however, I would still recommend it, whether you are a professional working with traumatised people, or if a loved one has survived trauma. It will give you a great insight into their experience and how to best support them.

A Helpful / Informative read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 January 2019

Verified Purchase

Very informative. Understanding PTSD through Babette’s lens has been really helpful. Much of my PTSD triggers as a result of internal body sensations. This help me understand that this is perfectly normal / even a healthy response. For a ‘questioning / naturally curious’ person like me - I found the read highly beneficial.

An indispensable resource

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 December 2013

Verified Purchase

This is quite possibly the most useful book I have in my library; it is extremely well written in a style that is difficult to put down, and is clinically applicable. So many professional books just re-state what we already know but without adding anything or being a useful resource for clinicians. Babette Rothschild's book is both theoretically sounds and practically useful and gives an excellent overview of trauma treatment. If you are interested in trauma, and particularly if you work with trauma patients, I can't recommend this book highly enough.

A whole new perspective on trauma. Recommended for anybody working with anyone affected (or possible affected) by trauma. A+

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 January 2016

Verified Purchase

Babette gives a really rather unique perspective on the massive subject of Trauma and its lasting effects on the human condition. If biology is not something that you are naturally inclined towards understanding you may find some of the terminology and processes a little hard to digest but it really is essential that Babette talks through them as they then give a heightened understanding of what happens for a person experiencing the effects of trauma at the time and afterwards. Very clear ways of how to work with trauma are also discussed so it is not just all theory, and of course the use of vignettes to help illustrate theory/practice. I had this book recommended to me by several other practitioners before eventually buying it - I wish I had bought it earlier. The knowledge/skills I acquired from reading it helped immensely with the next client I worked with who had underlying trauma issues. A+
