The word Sophrology comes from Ancient Greek.

° SOS = SERENITY, HARMONY

° PHREN = SPIRIT, CONSCIOUSNESS

° LOGOS = SCIENCE, STUDY

​

Sophrology is  "the study of serene consciousness".

​

Sophrology was founded in the 1960s by a Colombian born neuro psychiatrist and professor called Alfonso Caycedo who explored and studied Western techniques (hypnosis, philosophy, self-suggestion, classical relaxation methods) and Eastern techniques (Indian yoga, Buddhist meditation and Japonese Zazen).

The influences of the Western methods combined with the Eastern forms of relaxation led him to develop his own method to improve people's health, both physically and mentally in the fastest possible time and with lasting results.

​
