Relaxation Techniques

This course enables students to recognize and practice various relaxation techniques. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to explore in depth two specific relaxation methods and apply them. The unit will open new perspectives for students by introducing them to various breathing control techniques, with a focus on understanding the relationship between relaxation, breathing, and different aspects of psychomotor function. Students will also develop a deeper knowledge of anatomy to optimize body use and will experience physical relaxation techniques. The foundations of the SOUBIRAN relaxation method will be taught, including how to identify appropriate and inappropriate contexts for its application. Students will learn to conduct initial interviews and formulate suitable relaxation requests. They will also master how to evaluate relaxation using an appropriate assessment framework. The tactile dimension will be emphasized, with a particular focus on the quality of therapeutic touch during the application of the SOUBIRAN method.
