Hypnosis

A hypnotic state is a modified state of consciousness, which can be induced intentionally by a therapist. It allows easier access to the subconscious in order to bring about rapid and deep change.

Psychology

Consultation with a psychologist allows you to identify the emotions produced by events you have encountered, interpret them, and cope with them better.

Sophrology

Using techniques based on breathing and nervous and muscle relaxation, sophrology helps maintain balance between the body and mind.
