“Useful to have a non-pharmaceutical option for stress management”
“An excellent simple exercise to help stress that is evidence based. Good lecture & excellent practical exercise.”
“This session provided me with the techniques to use confidently in patients suffering from stress related conditions as an adjunct to the existing use of psychotropic drugs or as an alternative to these drugs. The session highlighted for me the extent of stress related conditions presenting in general practice.”
“The talk provided much reassurance regarding the practical use of relaxation with evidence relating to its use and the need to persist past the initial trial.”
