Progressive Relaxation
The approach I use is called progressive relaxation. This technique is a powerful mind/body connection that will help your mind/body totally relax. Clients that have used this method have remarked "I've never felt so relaxed"; "I notice I'm more in control of my anger". "I feel better about myself".
Let's talk about progressive relaxation for a minute. Progressive Relaxation techniques grew out of a set of methods originating in the 1930's in the writings of Edmund Jacobson. Professionals from many different fields use this method to teach their clients to relax. Progressive relaxation procedures are commonly used because of their diverse symptom relief and quick results. Most professionals teach their clients how to relax but what I do is give you a CD to use in the privacy of your home or office. You will listen to me relaxing your muscles for you with beautiful serene music in the background that helps to enhance the relaxation process.

Please note: this therapy is not to be used to diagnose a disorder but should be used in conjuction with any medications you are taking.
