Why and how Sophrology was used
Goals of the programme:
This programme was designed to introduce Sophrology as a new service, to offer a method
that can help participants to better cope with everyday challenges and to manage a load of
complex problems. Issues can be related to treatment and social life, such as self-esteem,
stress and anxiety, depression, addiction. Detecting mental health issues is an important step
