Complementary Therapies at Creation

Creation's therapy rooms provide a range of therapists able to promote both physiological and psychological well being. The therapies available are suitable for either exercising or non-exercising individuals and can help with a range of conditions resulting from the stressors in everyday life, the work place and various sporting environments.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT functions on the premise that most unhelpful modes of thinking and behaving have been learned over a long period of time. Using a set of structured techniques, a CBT therapist aims to identify thinking that causes problematic feelings and behaviour. The client then learns to change this thinking which, in turn, leads to more appropiate and positive behaviour, thus enabling the client to effect positive and lasting change in their life.

The type of work covered effectively with CBT includes:

Diet and weight loss
Attitudes toward health and well being
Stress and anxiety
Making positive changes in life for example, work, exercise, and health
Changing or breaking habits
Lifestyle management

Mind and body training in one....

Creation now offers bespoke packages for clients combining elements of cognitive behavioural techniques with practical personal training sessions. These sessions are a unique service that underpin Creation’s ethos of tailoring the training to meet the needs of the individual client.

The first half of the session is devoted to the psychological aspect of personal training, employing cognitive behavioural techniques to explore any barriers the client may be experiencing that are preventing them from achieving their goals. This has proven to be particularly effective in the area of diet and eating behaviours. The second half of the session then takes the form of a practical personal training session.

Reflexology

Reflexology is the study of the reflexes within the feet. These reflexes correspond to a variety of mechanisms and organs within the body. Through the application of specific techniques to target these reflexes the therapist can help reduce specific tensions and aid the body in finding a better equilibrium. Sensitive, trained hands can detect tiny deposits and imbalances within the feet and through manipulating these areas the reflexologist is able to release blockages that have occured. Tensions are eased, circulation and toxin elimination are improved. Other benefits of reflexolgy include pain relief and helping to boost the immune system.
