What if the next breakthrough in trauma treatment isn’t a louder intervention—but a quieter one? In this episode of PrecisionCycle, Enrique explores the hidden therapeutic potential of ASMR—not as internet trend, but as a clinically potent, neuro-affective modality capable of accessing dissociative material, metabolizing fear, and restoring inner coherence. Drawing from the work of Susan Sands, Bion, Bromberg, Schore, and others, this episode reframes ASMR as soft-tech for trauma—an architectural whisper capable of holding what words can’t reach. elevate.epo
