Cool Relaxation

Easing the Adolescent Rollercoaster


Puberty offers the last chance to correct dysfunctional brain metabolism and helps children to move smoothly into adulthood. Our aim is to create an environment that helps adolescents relax using the most powerful method: touch. Touch stimulates the production of endorphins 'the good mood' hormones in the body.

Cool Relaxtion programme is an 18-minute massage session in which students work in pairs. They are fully clothed at all times laying on the floor on their stomach. The session is always supervised by a certified instructor who follows a pre-designed routine while listening to soothing background music. Combining massage with meditative music by Jeff Clarkson and poetical ballad of Mark Howden makes this programme a very effective tool for deep relaxation.

It is very important for teenagers to learn that touch can be safe and not abusive, as for some of them the only touch they have ever experienced was abusive. Adolescents have an enormous need for loving touch but they would never ask for it, unable articulating their need. Teenage pregnancies are often a result of this positive touch craving (a skin hanger). Cool Relaxation programme conducted in a supervised and friendly environment enables production of endorphins (natural antidepressants). Research proves that endorphins have a direct positive influence on the learning process.
