"The session was utterly fascinating. It was very relaxing because the whole experience was calm and soothing. The information given as the process was being worked through was a real insight, and the self-help tips afterwards were also very useful. All in all a lovely experience and one to be recommended". M.B., White Cross, Lancaster, 2007
School Work
for pupils...
Courses for children can be delivered within schools as a lunch time or after school activity. These would be designed to be fun and stimulating for all participants, based on practical exercises aimed at building self-esteem and confidence. The types of exercises that could be offered include breathing techniques, simple yoga movements, meditation, visualisations, peer massage and affirmations. The course would effectively support the work of any learning mentor, and help pupils more effectively manage their emotions and stress in a non confrontational manner.

and for staff...
A recent study by Britain's Health & Safety watchdog, found that teaching and nursing were the most stressful professions, with more than 4 in 10 teachers indicating stress in work*.

)

flow is able to tailor and deliver short programmes of relaxation techniques to teaching and support staff aimed specifically at stress management. These would include a similar range of tools as that offered to pupils, but therapists would also be able to provide an introduction to self healing techniques through massage, reflexology and pressure point work. In addition flow can offer after- school or lunchtime therapy sessions (quiet and private room required) whereby staff could access short work-place treatments for between 10 & 20 minutes etc.

Community Organisations
Similar courses can be designed for adults within community groups and organisations. Whether you're working with young adults, parents, families or the elderly, a course can be tailored to meet the needs of your client or community group building on relaxation tools, self healing techniques and peer work.

Perhaps you're involved in a community festival or have an event? flow can offer demonstrations and taster treatments throughout the day.

flow will be happy to meet with you to discuss any ideas for courses, workshops, demonstrations or holistic 'tasters' you may have.
 


Workplace Therapies
Stress is a major cause of workplace absenteeism. It reduces the effectiveness of a business or company, both in terms of lost profit and productivity. Public services are seeing especially high rates of staff on long term sick leave.

'Personnel Today' research has shown the UK loses 1.5 million working days to stress a year at a cost of £1.24bn to employers. (PersonnelToday.com, 9/6/2004).

Workplace therapies can go a long way towards helping to alleviate stress and physical tension, reduce the likelihood of injury from repetitive strain, and increase employee satisfaction within an organisation. It's all about valuing staff.

Workplace therapies are a portable and adaptable method of offering short treatments in Indian Head Massage, Reflexology and Swedish Body Massage to staff for between 10 to 20 minutes each. Weekly therapies over a period of six weeks can result in considerable physical and psychological improvements. Costs can be met between the employees and employer to give greater access to therapies at an affordable price. Or you may as a manager or director simply wish to promote a private service within your workplace.
