In Sophrology One-to-One the focus can be more like a coaching session or more like a therapy session. Either way we will be holistically and will increase awareness of the mind, body, emotions, spirit and energy fields.
We recommend that people use sophrology as a preventative measure to maintain health and wellbeing, however, typically we do not react until there is something wrong, so people who come to see us are often:

The Origins of Sophrology
Sophrology was created in the 1960’s by Prof Alfonso Caycedo, a neuro-surgeon and psychiatrist, who studied in Barcelona and Switzerland. His aim was to help his patients become physically and mentally healthier while reducing the use of medication.
Over the years, the use of the Sophrology method has expanded and it is now widely sought after in many areas, including: business, sports, education, parenting, and medicine. Sophrology is used in many Swiss hospitals to prepare patients for surgical interventions, EMR scans and stress-free childbirth. In fact, studies have shown that people who use Sophrology cost the health insurances at least 30% less than the average. Sophrologists are currently working in diverse international organisations and international companies to reduce stress and optimise health and well-being.
