People often ask what Body Stress Release is like, and whether it compares to any other technique that they may have tried.  To fully understand Body Stress Release, it needs to be experienced.  It is completely unique and offers a safe, gentle yet effective way to assist the body to release stored tension which has become locked into the body over time, as a result of stress overload.  The impact on the nervous system undermines the body's co-ordination and ability to function efficiently. This may cause acute or chronic pain and discomfort throughout the whole body.

There is no manipulation, machinery, medication, massage or undressing. An initial detailed case history helps reveal the possible origins of the problem.  Then with the client fully-clothed and lying down, a series of light pressure tests are performed to locate the exact sites of stored tension.  A light, but definite manual stimulus is then applied to encourage the body to release this tension, thus assisting the body in its in-built ability to heal and maintain itself. Clients are amazed that such a gentle technique can be so effective in restoring quality of life.

Clients are provided with comprehensive feedback on the results.  Simple self-help techniques are suggested and preventative measures are discussed to avoid  future accumulation of stress.
