Australian edition and Re-releases

Travma was released in Australia with English-language liner notes (transliterating its title to Trauma, to match to the Australian audience) and packaging in mid-1997, to help promote the Australian leg of the Trauma tour and her recent English-language single debut for "Forgive Me This".[3] The album was released in a special tour edition featuring a bonus disc with five songs from previous albums. Vissi promoted the album and tour by participating in a high-profile media campaign including press, radio, national television interviews, and in-store signings.[3]

In 2008, Greek newspaper Isotimia was granted permission to release Travma as a covermount, parting its Megales Ihografiseis ("Great recordings") series of selected albums of Greek recording artists.

In 2019, the album was selected for inclusion in the Panik Gold box set The Legendary Recordings 1982-2019. The release came after Panik's acquisition rights of Vissi's back catalogue from her previous record company Sony Music Greece. This box set was printed on a limited edition of 500 copies containing CD releases of all of her albums from 1982 to 2019 plus unreleased material.
