Mental stress
Introduction to Body Stress Release
BSR is a non-therapeutic complementary health technique based on the principle that the body can heal itself. We identify lines of tension and release them. We don’t diagnose or treat conditions. We don’t do massage, prescribe medication, manipulate limbs or work with machines. The information below is drawn from reports given by the client on his/her BSR experience.

Client comments:
I heard about BSR but did not know what to expect. I am a frequent tennis and netball player and thus very active but in the last while my sporting abilities dwindled. I was very lethargic and without energy. I had a constant post nasal drip which I contributed to my smoking. After the first session I played a game of tennis and my teammate asked me what I've done differently as I'm playing better and seem to be more friendly. My tennis improved even more after the second session. I've told a couple of friends and hope that they will also come for BSR for their well-being.
Insights – How the body can heal itself:
The body knows how to heal and Body Stress Release helps to facilitate the healing process. The body heals in a very organised way, following its innate wisdom and in its own time. The healing can happen at a physical, mental and emotional level.
