Physical injuries are unavoidable sometimes. An unexpected accident or a sports injury can occur out of the blue, putting a halt to your everyday life. Although injuries are an inconvenience, recovering from one can be an exhilarating journey.

There are two types of injuries, acute and accidental. Acute injuries occur during an accident from blunt force trauma. Accidental injuries may result in dislocations, sprains, tears, and fractures. People are also prone to injuries that occur with time. Poor posture and movements tend to increase the load on muscles and joints in your body, leading to misalignments and imbalances like strains, pulls, and tears.

Whatever the cause of your injury, it is necessary to recover from it at the earliest. Experts at our wellness centre in Dubai recommend rehabilitative pilates as an effective tool for recovering from an injury. Extensive studies have shown that Pilates can help reduce pain and improve muscle coordination and flexibility. With the help of certified trainers, you can enjoy a personalized rehabilitation journey with pilates.

Read on to learn how Pilates classes can help your body recover from injuries and what to expect during your sessions.

Rehabilitation Through Pilates

While regular pilates is a great workout regime, rehabilitative pilates is modified and focuses more on meeting the injured client’s needs. The modifications depend upon the affected area, level of pain, and individual comfort levels. Our pilates trainers take special care in identifying the needs of your body and work with you to improve your mobility and stability. Furthermore, pilates is more of a mindful exercise form. Even though the movements focus on physical recovery, the client has to work on connecting the mind and body during a pilates session. Oftentimes the saying ‘mind over matter’ comes to play in rehabilitation. This is why pilates is an ideal method for recovering from injuries.

Consistent practice of pilates can improve the strength of your body over time. The fluid movements of pilates align and balance the musculature of the body, increases flexibility, and improves the overall balance of the body. With increased control over the body, clients usually gain a ‘self-awareness’ which is essential for recovering from injuries.

Pilates can also prevent overuse injuries and recurring pains. The injury-prone areas in the body are strengthened through regular practice, preventing further aches and ailments.

Unlike conventional rehabilitative exercises, pilates is easily modifiable and requires the client to keep moving safely and effectively. Pilates routines are not strenuous and are highly focused on breathing techniques, concentration, and fluid movements that push the body to explore its capabilities in the injured state. The healing is therefore intrinsic and not forced or rushed, allowing you to recover at a pace you are comfortable with.

The next step

Pilates with a certified trainer in a safe environment can be highly effective in your rehabilitation journey. To learn more about our Pilates ladies only classes in Dubai, reach out to our wellness centre today.

Saunas are one of the best places to relax and rest after a long day at work or a particularly busy week. In many cultures, especially for people from Finland, traditional saunas are the holiest room in their house. Saunas are considered a place for purification as they help maintain their overall wellbeing.

Although a 20-minute sweat session at a sauna can be more than refreshing, many people still refrain from using them due to temperature intolerance. If you are looking for a way to get benefited from a sauna without the extreme heat, infrared saunas are the place to be.

Infrared saunas- All you need to know

Infrared saunas are preferred by many as they use targeted infrared lamps to warm their bodies. Here, the air around you is noted to be heated up, but rather electromagnetic radiation is used to raise the temperature of your body.

The infrared panels can easily penetrate human tissue before heating the air around. These also operate at a lower temperature as compared to traditional saunas allowing you to sweat out toxins without having to tolerate extreme heat.

At our wellness centre in Dubai, the infrared sauna is often recommended as part of our in-house detox program. Heat therapy, with the help of saunas is found to be highly effective in reducing aches and pains and accelerating the healing of injuries. Regular use of infrared saunas also helps you relax and rejuvenate, improving your blood circulation, and promoting better sleep.

Infrared saunas can also aid in your weight loss journey as they increase your body’s metabolic rate and improve fat burning. They also contribute to better skin health by detoxifying the skin pores and tightening the tissues, which effectively reduces wrinkles.

Guidelines for using an infrared sauna

For the best experience, we recommend the following steps before using our infrared sauna-

  • Hydrate yourself before going into an infrared sauna. When your body heat rises, chances for getting dehydrated are higher. To avoid this, you can either drink some water before going in for a session or carry some water with you into the sauna.
  • First-time users are recommended to try a lower temperature of 100F for a time of 10 to 15 minutes. This will help you assess your heat tolerance and reduce the chances of dehydration. As you become more used to the sauna experience, you can raise the temperature to 150F and sit longer for about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Do not step out of the sauna as soon as the heat is turned off. Take time for your body to cool down. Ideally, a shower or bath is recommended to wash off the sweat for the best results.
  • Unless you are a seasoned user, we recommend 3 to 4 infrared sauna sessions per week. For healthy individuals who are tolerant of the temperature, the sauna can be used daily for relaxing and detoxing their bodies every day.
  • We also suggest not to use the infrared sauna if you are unwell as the rise in body temperature may lead to overheating, exhaustion, and dehydration.

All of us are exposed to various toxins daily, which hinder our body’s general wellness in the long run. Regular detoxification is highly beneficial to getting rid of these pollutants and restoring your good health. As infrared saunas help detoxify you at a cellular level, all these unwanted pollutants are removed from your body along with your sweat. So take some time this week to try out the infrared sauna at our wellness centre in Dubai and experience a relaxed detoxification session.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a widely studied psychiatric disorder that is said to affect 7 or 8 out of every 100 people in the world. Research shows that about 8 million adults suffer from some form of post-traumatic stress every year due to various reasons. 

A person suffers from PTSD when he or she fails to recover from a gruesome experience like an accident, natural disaster, war, terrorist attack, rape, or assault. This condition often lasts for months, even years, and can be triggered at the slightest mention of the event, bringing back memories of the trauma accompanied by intense emotional and physical reactions.

Like with any other mental disorder, PTSD also needs to be treated with a combination of therapies and medications if needed. Recent studies show that psychotherapy is an effective method in treating PTSD, providing long term relief to the patient. 

At The Hundred, we believe in the science behind various psychotherapy techniques such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) as they primarily focus on helping individuals develop better thought processes and engage in positive behavioral patterns. Unlike traditional mental health care practices that recommend the use of antidepressants and other medications to manage PTSD, our experts train the patients to recover through mind healing techniques. Let us learn more about it in this blog.

A different approach to PTSD

Our experts recommend CBT, a type of psychotherapy that helps the individual face their trauma objectively. As most people suffer from PTSD by suppressing their memories of the terrifying event instead of dealing with it healthily, they fail to recover from the trauma for years. 

During a CBT session, the patient is encouraged to identify, understand, and cope with their trauma by changing their thought process and behavior patterns. The psychotherapy sessions focus on helping the patient develop skills that help them deal with their underlying fear and practice the same, even outside the four walls of the therapist’s office. Over the course of 12 to 16 weeks, the patient would have developed enough skills and mental strength to overcome the trigger factor and look at the event from a different perspective.

By gently encouraging these individuals to remember their traumatic experience in a safe environment during a psychotherapy session, they gradually become immune to the fear and learn to look at the event objectively. As most PTSD sufferers also have a lot of repressed guilt that distorts the actual event, the therapist also encourages cognitive restructuring, where the patient learns to look at the event differently and get a realistic perspective of it.

Why should you go to experts?

PTSD is a mental disorder that requires careful and tailored treatment. Only a trained mental health care professional with experience in treating PTSD should be approached for best results. Our expert psychotherapist at The Hundred is a certified professional who takes time to understand the patient’s specific needs and provide personalized treatment. PTSD patients, for instance, may require a private space to openly talk about their trauma. This is why we recommend one-on-one sessions rather than group therapy to help patients deal with their specific traumas.

What do you know about your body? While most people have a basic understanding of the way their body functions and can feel ‘something wrong’ when they are ill, the information is incomplete. However, advancements in science and technology have always allowed us to learn, diagnose, and treat a multitude of illnesses and disorders of our bodies before they are aggravated. 

Over the years, one such diagnostic tool has helped healthcare providers gain a 360-degree view of a person’s overall physical state, providing comprehensive information that can be used to tailor everything from dietary and fitness regimes to overall lifestyle changes. Thermography testing, though not widely discussed, is a highly specialized non-invasive diagnostic tool that complements modern-day treatments and therapies. In this blog, we will explore all that you need to know about thermography testing and why you should consider undergoing the test.

Understanding Thermography Testing

Unknown to many, thermography testing has been around since the 1950s. Earlier, similar tests were used to detect connection defects, overloads, insulation issues, and other problems in electrical systems. Later on, the medical community realized its potential as a diagnostic and screening tool to detect cellular conditions and disorders. Today, thermography testing is widely used to detect breast abnormalities in females, musculoskeletal disorders, vascular diseases, thyroid gland abnormalities and inflammatory conditions.

Medical thermography testing usually uses an infrared camera system that creates thermal images of the body. As the process doesn’t rely on contact or radiations, it is considered as an ideal diagnostic tool for many potential diseases. The high level of sensitivity and specificity offered by thermography tests helps in the continuous monitoring of your body and learn how various medicines, dietary, fitness, and lifestyle changes are positively impacting it. Our experts recommend a full-body thermography scan every 6 months for accessing your progress and getting the best results from your treatments.

What we offer at The Hundred

At our wellness centre in Dubai, we offer the AlfaThermo thermography test that is fine-tuned for early detection of potential dysfunctions. This non-invasive screening tool can identify a multitude of issues from vascular issues, musculoskeletal disorders to neoplastic and inflammatory conditions. AlfaThermo can also be used to study breast health and early screening of breast cancer.

Regular health screening with thermography testing will help you reduce the risk of developing any problems and adjust your diet, exercises, and lifestyle accordingly. Further, early detection of aggressive conditions like breast cancer can help you make better treatment decisions. In short, by gaining a better perspective of your bodily functions and taking necessary action, you will have peace of mind.

What to expect during the testing?

The AlphaThermo thermography testing takes a total of 45 minutes. The patient is asked to undress and wait for a 10 minutes cooling period to bring their body to room temperature. During the testing, thermal images of the patient are taken with the help of state-of-the-art infrared cameras. These image results are later interpreted by our in-house experts, following which necessary recommendations will be given.

Thermography testing is an ideal option for people who wish to have a better awareness of their body and maintain a healthy lifestyle. As it is a non-invasive diagnostic tool, it is also recommended for patients suffering from various disorders to continuously monitor their body functions. So reach out to our wellness centre in Dubai today to book your appointment at the earliest.

 

Did you know that an estimated one in five, or more than 1.5 billion people from around the world suffer from chronic pain with injuries, illness, and increasing age? Physical pain affects the quality of life of the sufferers, making it a matter of great concern. But how often do we heed pain as a major health issue? Most people consider it a side effect of an illness, injury, or surgery and neglect it to a point where they suffer in silence.

However, at The Hundred, we believe that pain management should be part of a holistic healthcare system. By addressing and treating chronic pain as a condition that can be managed and even cured, we offer our clients better health and lifestyle. At our wellness centre in Dubai, we offer a variety of pain management services ranging from hypnotherapy, physiotherapy, chiropractic, and rehabilitation pilates.

Pain management – what to expect

Chronic pain can be physically and mentally exhausting. There are two kinds of approaches to manage this pain. The first one focuses on techniques that deal with specific pains and their management. Physiotherapy, Chiropractic, and Pilates come under this approach.

Chronic pain can also be managed by looking at a person’s physical and mental state and offering a holistic healthcare solution. This is where hypnotherapy comes in.  

In both cases, the idea is to bring down your pain and improve the quality of your life. Our specialists teach and train you in skills that will help manage your chronic pain in the long run, allowing you to get back to work or partake in activities that you once enjoyed.

Research further shows that these comprehensive pain management techniques not only impact one’s physical health and abilities but also reduces emotional distress. 

Pain management methods

As mentioned, there are various methods to address your pain.

Chronic pain attributed to injuries or surgery can be effectively managed with the help of physical techniques. Most doctors recommend physiotherapy or chiropractic as an effective tool for pain management post-surgery. Rehabilitative Pilates is also a recommended practice to manage pain, especially for recovering from injuries.

Hypnotherapy, on the other hand, focuses on both the physical and mental well being. During hypnotherapy, the therapist creates a state of focused attention in the patient. With the power of guided imagery and positive suggestions, the therapist then gently aids the patient to deal with a variety of issues, both physical, mental, and emotional. Hypnotherapy is highly useful in dealing with chronic pain caused by stress, anxiety and other mental distresses.

How to take the next step?

If you suffer from chronic pain, and are ready to address the issue, reach out to our board-certified experts at The Hundred Wellness Centre. Our expert therapists will treat your pain through a combination of physical therapy, hypnotherapy, and rehabilitation, ensuring all-round good health. 

You don’t have to go through your pain alone, we can help you manage it and get through the difficulty with an effective pain management program tailored to your needs. You can always visit us or book an appointment with our specialists for expert consultation. 

Sometimes recovering from surgery can be painful, not to mention, a long process. Serious injuries can render a person immobile for weeks, even after successful surgery, unless the patient is given the right post-surgery care. This is why many doctors nowadays recommend physiotherapy or chiropractic treatments to help the patient recover faster and regain their mobility.

Invasive surgeries are unavoidable in the case of an accident or a degenerative disease. However, this often leads to misalignment of the body, which in turn causes muscle stiffness and restricted movements. With regular chiropractic care, a patient can effectively improve their strength and regain muscle movements, significantly decreasing the number of hospital visits post-surgery. 

In this blog, we will explore the role of chiropractic care in post-surgery rehabilitation.

Why doctors recommend chiropractic care

Patients recovering from back surgery often suffer from spinal misalignment as a common side effect of the procedure. During the recovery stage, the misaligned vertebrae can be quite troublesome, inducing pain, restricted movements, and lethargy. Physical difficulties like these, in turn, cause the individual to suffer in silence or exhibit unusual mood swings, putting the caregivers in a fix. Rehabilitation can also be challenging, especially for those who have suffered a serious injury. At times, recovery can be painful. 

This is where chiropractic care can help. A certified chiropractor can realign the vertebrae through movements and massages, aiding the body to heal better. By removing the obstacles and relaxing the tense muscles, chiropractors can reduce stress and pain that is usually felt in the muscles after surgery.

Help Manage Pain 

Chiropractic care can help alleviate pain during your recovery and rehabilitation. By taking advantage of the body’s structure, chiropractors manipulate the body’s alignment to relieve pain and make a recovery a smooth process. According to the guideline issued by the American College of Physicians, spinal manipulation or chiropractic therapy is an effective means of addressing lower back pain- a normal occurrence after surgery. 

Helping Ease Muscle Tension And Address Nerve Damage

Stiff muscles may block the free flow of blood in the body, delaying its natural healing ability. With the right chiropractic care, blood circulation to the tissues can be restored, replenishing the oxygen and nutrients that the body needs for healing.

Additionally, chiropractors also help solve nerve damages that may have occurred during surgery. Nerve damage can cause extreme pain or numbness in various parts of the body unless addressed and treated. The right kind of chiropractic care can ensure that the brain communicates with every cell in the body by soothing the nerve damages. This, in turn, helps in the proper functioning of the body.

Conclusion

Regular chiropractic exercises and lifestyle changes help patients recover better from their post-surgery difficulties and help regain overall muscle strength. Therefore, most patients enjoy speedy recovery from their surgeries with regular chiropractic care. 

If you are in the process of recovering from a surgery or from an injury that has reduced your mobility, book a session with our chiropractor in Dubai today. Let us take a step towards faster and painless recovery together.

Over the years, our society has become more open and interested in the topic of mental health. With increased emphasis on prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of people with mental dysfunctions, organizations across the globe are engaged in studies to find the most effective techniques.

While mind therapies like psychotherapy and hypnotherapy are identified as treatment plans, the role of physiotherapy is not always valued when it comes to treating mental illnesses. However, physiotherapy is a globally recognized conventional method that employs physical activities to improve the quality of life. This is why it is important to evaluate the importance of this treatment method in improving mental health and cognitive behaviours.

Physiotherapy in mental health

A healthy person will have a healthy mind and body that is in perfect sync with each other. This is why physical illness affects our mind and vice versa, whether we realize it or not. With that understanding, it is easier to see how physiotherapy can be a useful tool in treating mental illnesses.

Physiotherapy primarily addresses movement, function, and physical activity of your body. At the same time, the therapy can also help establish a better connection between the mind and the body. Let us see how.

Partaking in regular physical activities has several health benefits. Exercise helps improve cardiovascular fitness, improve sleep, increase endurance, relieve stress, reduce the impact of metabolic syndromes, reduces anxiety, and improves the overall mood and energy of a person. In short, exercises improve the quality of life.

Even when it comes to a person suffering from mental dysfunction, the first telltale sign of things going south is deteriorating physical health. For instance, a person who is under a lot of stress and anxiety will be showing physical strains like loss of weight, sleeplessness, and fatigue. So, it is necessary to assume that in treating mental dysfunctions, the body’s physical health is also important.

Physiotherapy can be considered as a multidisciplinary approach to helping cure mental dysfunctions. Physiotherapists aid mental health professionals by optimizing the overall wellbeing of a patient by promoting physical activity and functional movements. Depending upon the complexity of mental dysfunction, patients are recommended to undergo physical therapy and thereby improve their movement awareness.

Physiotherapy can be applied as a preventive strategy for treating mental illness. There are definite correlations between poor mental and physical health. People suffering from chronic pain and diseases are often diagnosed with mental issues as a consequence of their physical health. So, by concentrating on pain management through physiotherapy, patients have a chance to improve their physical and mental wellbeing.

On the other hand, studies also show that physical activities help reduce cardiovascular diseases in people with pre-existing psychological problems. Physiotherapists also help mental health professionals with the treatment of depression, PTSD, and schizophrenia by providing an important bridge between physical and mental health in patients. Therefore promoting and encouraging a healthy body is vital for the effectiveness of mind therapies.

Need for a complete well being

Physical and mental health are not independent of each other. Engaging in physical activities like aerobic exercises like walking and swimming daily has long since proven to be an effective way to reduce stress and anxiety. So it is no surprise that physiotherapy interventions are effective in improving mental health just as much as physical health. That is why complete wellbeing can only be achieved by giving equal importance to both mind and body. 

 

Pilates is one of the oldest and most popular workout routines that engage the mind and transform your body. It is often cited to have life-changing benefits, helping strengthen and tone weak and injured muscles, increase flexibility, and improve overall balance and mobility. People all around the world rely on pilates not only as a daily exercise but also as a physical rehabilitation method that keeps their body looking, feeling, and functioning its best.

However, it is surprising that even some of the avid followers of this exercise overlook the mental benefits of pilates. Unknown to many, pilates also employs simple breathing techniques to improve focus and mindfulness of the practitioner, creating and strengthening the bond between one’s mind and body. From helping reduce daily mental stress to bettering the quality of sleep, pilates has a number of mental health benefits, which we will explore in this blog.

Increased mindfulness

Did you know that Pilates is a mental workout as much as it’s a physical one? With the help of free-flowing movements and simple breathing techniques, pilates trainers teach individuals to become more mindful about the space around them. During a Pilates workout, the movement starts and stops with a specific breath pattern. As people follow the movements while focusing solely on their breathing, they are temporarily cut off from unwanted thoughts. By keeping the mind unoccupied during the workout, pilates helps people improve their focus and concentration, allowing them to be and live in the moment.

Managing stress and strain

A good Pilates session can leave the practitioner feeling calm and collected. This is because, while the individual is focused on the exercise, the body’s chemical balance is retained through a series of endocrine functions. During the workout, the cortisol or “stress hormone” level lowers, while endorphins are released. This helps in managing physical and mental stress without the need for any kind of medication.

Better sleep cycles

Most people undergo sleep deprivation at least once in their lifetime. Chronic sleeplessness, on the other hand, can lead to a myriad of health issues and leave the individual feeling tired and fatigued during the day. Lack of sleep is known to create hormonal imbalance and cause loss of memory and critical thinking skills. This essentially leaves the sleepless individuals listless and unable to function socially and professionally in their daily lives.

This is where pilates can help bring a change. Studies show that staying fit and active through simple pilates workouts can drastically improve the quality of sleep. As the hormonal balance is restored, individuals find it easier to rejuvenate body and mind with a good night of rest.

Therapeutic benefits

Pilates is also recommended by mental health practitioners to help individuals cope with anxiety and depression. Along with other mind therapy methods, pilates can help rehabilitate people suffering from mental and emotional issues by helping them redirect their thoughts and focus on internal stability. 

Being part of a group pilates class also allows people suffering from mental strains to relax and improve their social skills. People are known to bond over shared experiences, which in itself can be a great medicine in healing the mind.

Final words

If you have never tried pilates before, this is the right time to get started. With the increased emphasis on maintaining mental health during the pandemic, pilates is a great solution to stay calm and focused during the tough times. So join our Pilates classes in Dubai at the Hundred Wellness Centre today.

 

With the world breaking into debates about animal-borne viral diseases in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, more and more people are shifting to sustainable food options. The growing popularity of veganism is one such change that occurred, as people became concerned about where their food comes from and how it is impacting the environment we are all living in.

Studies tell us that meat and dairy producing livestock accounts for between 14.5 percent and 18 percent of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Also, animal product production has led to higher levels of freshwater usage and pollution and is responsible for 27% of humanity’s water footprint. Proponents of veganism, therefore, try to reduce the consumption of heavily processed animal products, contribute to green living. As people depend more and more on locally grown fresh grains, fruits, and vegetables, it greatly reduces the environmental impact. Saying ‘no’ to industrial meat and dairy that are shipped from far off locations is also the first step to healthy eating habits. 

As the trend catches on, people in the UAE are also showing a massive interest in veganism. To promote healthy and sustainable eating habits, healthy cafes like our 100 Cafe have curated vegan menus that offer tasty, nutritious, and filling foods to all. So how do we play a part in contributing to sustainable living? Here is what you need to know-

The 100 Cafe- Your first step towards veganism

Eating healthy doesn’t have to be an intimidating experience. Switching to cleaner vegan products is not exactly a costly affair and the recipes don’t demand high levels of sophistication. In fact, vegan food options are simple, nutritious, and tasty without compromising flavors. With that understanding, we at the 100 Cafe have created a multitude of tasty dishes that are naturally medicinal, nourishing, and satisfying.

At our cafe, we mostly source locally grown fresh produce from the IGR organic farm in Abu Dhabi, ensuring food quality and safety. Further, all the dishes in our menu are entirely plant-based, gluten-free, and with zero use of refined sugar. Through these simple steps, we introduce our clients’ palettes to the wonders of vegan dishes, thereby playing a small role in promoting cleaner food habits and sustainable living.

Wellness starts at home

While vegan cafes and restaurants in the country encourage people to choose plant-based foods, practicing an entirely plant-based diet may prove tough for most people at the start. This is where we should all take a moment to think about our social responsibility towards the environment. Animal product consumption is not just a sustainability issue; it also involves the basic rights of sentient animals. So if you are considering a healthy and effective lifestyle that supports your health while upholding animal rights, veganism is undoubtedly the best way to go.

Remember that wellness starts at home. By making smarter food choices and opting for sustainable and toxic-free products, you make the world a better place to live.

 

Fear is a very basic emotion that every one of us experiences at times. Whether you are scared of heights or get weak in the knees at the thought of speaking in front of an audience, it is natural to feel discomforted and avoid the situation. While a little fear can keep you safe from accidents, irrational or exaggerated fears of any kind can hold you back in life. 

Fear and anxiety that lasts longer can take over your life, affecting your physical and mental health. Such overwhelming fear should be dealt with before it renders you unable to live your personal and professional life. Studies have found that psychotherapy can help individuals overcome their fear and anxiety by helping them cope with these emotions step by step.

Understanding fear and anxiety

People can be scared of many things. Some of these fears can be helpful and keep you away from danger. But irrational fears may hold you from doing things that need to be done. As these fears vary from person to person, the first step to overcoming this feeling is to identify and acknowledge its existence.

Anxiety is a type of fear that most people undergo from time to time. Even at this very moment, many of us may be worried about our job, health, or family. This persistent and nagging feeling of worry may develop into a serious fear unless it is addressed at the right time.

When you fear something, your body reacts to it. Your heartbeat may increase and become irregular, you may sweat profusely, feel weak and dizzy, breath harder and faster and muscles may tense up. Then you are feeling scared or anxious, your body identifies the thing or situation as a potential threat and prepares for an emergency. But as this fight or flight response gets triggered even without real danger, it becomes problematic.

Psychotherapists classify fear and anxiety as a mental health issue only when it is severe, long-lasting, and renders the individual to live a normal life. As people may be suffering anything from panic attacks to phobias, therapists recommend personalized ways to cope with the fear.

How can psychotherapy help?

Psychotherapy is a popular treatment method that addresses mental and emotional distresses. This non-invasive treatment focuses on natural healing techniques that help the patient cope with his or her issues in an organic way. Psychotherapy focuses on talk therapy, where the patient speaks to the specialist, identifying and dealing with their issues in due course. Therapists use a variety of approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Technique, Psychoanalysis & Inner Child Therapy, Parts Therapy, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Satir Family Therapy and Hypnotherapy to assist the patients in their healing process.

During a psychotherapy session, the patients are offered a calm and confidential space to talk in length about their issues. The therapist helps the patient to come in terms with their challenges and face them proactively through simple everyday tasks. Mental exercises and relaxation techniques are some of the prescribed methods that allow the individual to take control of their fear or anxiety and live a healthier life. 

Final words

Living with fear and anxiety is not easy. But understanding the root cause of the fear and taking steps to cope with it will help you live your life better. Through different therapy models, our mental health specialists help patients overcome their irrational fear and continue towards self-growth. So, if you or a loved one requires expert counseling, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at The Hundred Wellness Centre.
