Service Benefits

Here’s what some of our clients have to say about their experience of attending the service:

“I’m now the bubbly person I used to
be. Attending the Stress Centre has
helped me to re-build parts of my life
and made me realise life is for living
and I have started to enjoy life for the
first time ever”

“I felt as low as a snake’s belly when I
was feeling depressed – now I am
feeling much better, there is light at the
end of the tunnel.”

“Can’t praise staff enough. Friendly
and really helpful. Have told family
and friends how successful my
sessions were and if they ever
needed help, not to hesitate in
contacting the Stress Centre.”

Royston (Adult) Stress Centre offers a variety of therapeutic approaches to help people to begin to deal with negative stress. These include Holistic Therapeutic massage, counselling, Life Coaching, Acupuncture, Reiki and relaxation.

At your first appointment, you will meet your stress therapist, who will assist you to identify more clearly how stress is affecting you, help you to clarify your goals, identify your needs and agree options for achieving your goals and meeting your needs. Clients may progress from Level One through to Level Three.

3 Levels of Service

  • Level One: Stress Relief
  • Level Two: Stress Management
  • Level Three: Life Development Programme

 

Level One is our Stress Relief Programme

This helps people who are feeling generally stressed and harassed by everyday living. After the first appointment, we will offer a further 5 sessions of any of our range of therapies to:

  • help people discover where and how stress builds up
  • begin to relieve the symptoms of stress.

 

Level Two is our Stress Management Programme

This helps people to:

  • address any underlying root cause of stress related
    problems
  • identify and consider making positive changes in
    themselves or their lives
  • overcome obstacles, solve problems and achieve the
    positive changes.

 

Level Three is our Life Development Programme

This enables people to continue personal growth and pursue practical goals and lifestyle changes, such as engaging in:

  • new social activities
  • education
  • training
  • employment
  • volunteering

Holistic Complimentary Therapies provided to help relieve and manage your stress

At your first appointment at the centre you will meet your stress therapist who will assist you to identify more clearly how stress is affecting you and, help you to clarify your goals, and identify your needs. Once your treatment programme has been agreed, it may include a number of therapies, tailored to meet your needs and achieve your goals. These therapies may include counselling, therapeutic massage, relaxation and reiki.

Counselling

The counselling process is unique to each individual. Our approach however can focus on problem solving, exploring a problem in more depth to uncover the underlying cause and supporting people as they process their feelings and develop an ability to manage them.

Relaxation

Making time for personal support is important. Focussed relaxation teaches people how to relax and how to hold onto relaxation under stressful situations.

Massage

Through therapeutic massage,we learn where we are holding tension in the body and work towards releasing it.This can be a very rewarding and nourishing treatment. For those nervous about a full body massage or getting undressed,we also offer hand, foot and face massage.

Reiki

It’s not just traumas that upset our lives;we all get out of balance with events in our everyday lives at some time or another. Reiki is a form of healing which helps balance our body’s physical, mental and emotional energy.Therapists use touch to channel and rebalance energy that has become blocked, allowing our brains and body to function freely.

All our practitioners are professionally trained in their field, insured to practice and affiliated to the appropriate ethical and/or professional body.

One to one outreach sessionsOutreach Services

If you can’t make it into the Adult Stress Centre or if you’d like to try out some of the ways we work before you begin a treatment programme, then our outreach service can help you.  In different venues in and around the community we hold weekly one to one sessions in massage and relaxation.  We also run a variety of groupwork programmes.

Arm chair tai chi group sessionThe outreach sessions are another great way for you to access our service and some people even use the outreach service as a way of keeping in touch with us after they’ve completed their stress relief programmes at Adult Stress Centre.
