Good condition before any

For efficiency, the environment in which occurs a relaxation therapy session should be calm and pleasant .

The sophrologists professionals generally recommend wearing a broad place , comfortable and a place to lie down or sit (chair, sofa, mattress or carpet).

A light blanket or a blanket can also be used to keep warm as body temperature decreases slightly when it relaxes.

Dialogue

Each session begins with a dialogue initiated by the relaxation therapist with his patient, which we call sophronisé, how he feels physically and mentally, and to present the exercises he recommends for the meeting. This stage lasts approximately 10 minutes .

Dynamic relaxation

For 25 minutes , the relaxation therapist invites her to realize sophronisé exercises relaxationdynamics. These exercises are based on breathing , and to effect a movement of contraction and relaxation of the body.

These relaxation exercises will be dynamic in early supervised by a relaxation therapist. Once sophronisé formed, it can reproduce independently daily.

Static relaxation

For 25 minutes , the relaxation therapist invites her sophronisé to settle in a comfortable position possible (sitting or lying). The sophronisé close my eyes and lulled by the sound of his voice that leads him on a path of total relaxation, to the edge of sleep (but not sleep). Then once the sophronisé is in a state of deep relaxation , the relaxation therapist invites him to see apositive and fun (all defined at the beginning of the session dialogue, or otherwise) to encourage and appreciate more the benefits of relaxation .

Back on the course of the session

A relaxation therapy session always ends with another 10 minutes of dialogue during which the sophronisé can share with his sophrologist sensations experienced during the session.

It is also an opportunity for relaxation therapist to advocate its sophronisé an exercise program to achieve alone every day. A good sophrologist give him the tools so he can train independently until its next meeting.
A daily practice, even 10 minutes is recommended: it is the key to achieve results more quickly and sustainably.

Example of dynamic relaxation exercise

- The relaxation therapist invites her sophronisé to be placed upright , feet in the width of the basin;

- He asks her to take a deep breath in inflating the abdomen ;

- Retention in lungs full of air, the sophronisé must shrug from the top down and bottom up (more or less energetically, shrugging about a dozen);

- Then the sophronisé must blow into releasing many shoulders , hands, until your fingertips. To help create a vacuum in his head, he can imagine, when he releases the arms and hands, lay on the ground that clutters her mind and wants to evacuate (stress, tensions, frustrations, fears , anxiety ...);

- Finally, the relaxation therapist invites him to take a time to welcome the sensations caused by the stimulation and to resume breathing naturally.
