Sophrology is based on a set of techniques that enable people to better manage stress and anxiety on a daily basis. People who practise sophrology are said to have fewer stress-related illnesses, resulting in fewer visits to the doctor and less use of medication (tranquillizers, sleeping pills, analgesics...). Sophrology is also an invaluable aid in learning to manage emotions.
