This literature review assesses dance/movement therapy techniques that could be an effective treatment for the victim who is experiencing and witnessing a traumatic event. Traumatic events can hold significant physical, psychological, and neurobiological outcomes for an individual. Since the consequences of concerning trauma-related symptoms have not arisen yet, the application of DMT is required as an alternative for healing therapy. Combining the body into treatment for traumatized individuals relieves somatic symptoms of the trauma. Body movement can be a means to communicate and express painful memories nonverbally. This paper examines the application of mirroring as an exercise routine in DMT to enhance emotional understanding and empathy about a feeling of distress, trauma, helplessness, and fear. It can be sensed and interpreted by moving together. The findings from recent studies show that mirroring practice in DMT may induce advantages in the psychological functioning of a person who suffers from a traumatic experience.
