mind and body therapy

Mind and Body Therapy combines two tried and tested therapies, namely therapeutic massage with and a session of self-hypnosis for stress. This therapy, now available in some of the UK’s tops spas and clinics, has been developed and trialled by the Peel Clinic in London and the results have been truly amazing.

Clinical Director of The Peel Clinic, Christopher Morgan-Locke said “We have trialled this new therapy for over a year and the client assessment scores have averaged 9.5 out of 10 which is almost unheard of. We monitored stress levels before and after each treatment and on every occasion it dropped substantially in just a single one hour treatment. For those with aches and pains their pain levels also dropped considerably which was an added bonus and many reported they have been sleeping better.”

“Therapeutic massage has long been a proven way of dealing with the physical aspects of stress and clinical hypnosis is a very effective and safe way of deeply relaxing the mind. In recent years the public have really sought safe alternatives to drug therapy which can have dangerous or unpleasant side effects.”

The treatment takes less than an hour although as the client is so relaxed afterwards it is advised that you allow another 15 minutes to be fully alert before you head off home. The client lays face down and is covered with towels and a new set of sterilized earphones are put in their ears. The specially trained and fully qualified massage therapist then begins with a gentle head, back, arms and legs massage which is synchronised with a specially written self-hypnosis relaxation session for stress. The effect of the two therapies working as one is truly remarkable.

The music was specially commissioned by a top musician and composer to integrate with the words and massage making the combination of touch, words and music extremely relaxing.

Sarah Bailey from Relaxaway said: “When I first heard of this treatment I knew this was special as it makes so much sense to combine these two safe and powerful therapies. All the therapists I trained with felt the same we knew this would be great for our clients. When I heard about all the new Mind and Body protocols that will be available over the next year or so I knew I had to get involved as soon as possible and I am delighted to be one of the first accredited Mind and Body Therapy in this area.”

The specially developed massage was constructed by highly experienced Chartered Physiotherapist Jayne Wells who said: “It took over a year to develop this one protocol for stress and test it and the results have been far better than we ever expected. In all my years as a therapist working in some of the UK’s top clinics I have never seen clients reach such a wonderful level of relaxation.”

Amanda Edwards from Knutsford, Cheshire, was the first client for Relaxaway to have the treatment. She said:“ I was not sure what to expect but knew it would be relaxing but I never imagined how deeply relaxed I would be. The massage was gentle, the music excellent and the narration was so relaxing and uplifting I really felt good afterwards for some days. I think I will make this a regular experience every month or two.”

Linda Blake, Winsford, Cheshire ....."The whole experience with this wonderful new massage therapy was complete relaxation. I drifted off with the soft notes of the man’s voice whilst Sarah worked softly yet firmly over my tired muscles. The combination of massage and the deep voice sends you off to a lovely place! Well worth a try.
