Stress Reduction

Somax has developed a new method for reducing stress and tension that bypasses the mind altogether. Based on acu-pressure points, the system can be taught in one two-hour session in person or by phone. After the initial session, you can apply the method to any stressful situation. Follow-up one-hour sessions are available, if needed.

All athletes have had the experience of not competing to their ability level, whether it is not making a pressure putt, double faulting on a serve, or swimming slower times in individual competitions compared to relays. Somax Stress Reduction works to reduce these occurrences by re-balancing the system so that situations and conditions are not so stressful. The method works equally well for adults and children.

Golf

The margin for error on any golf shot is very small. Even the best players demonstrate times when they are unable to maintain their momentum or concentration during a match, or to come back from a bad shot. Somax Stress Reduction can help improve concentration, motivation and momentum.

Every golfer has problems with parts of the game. While no substitute for our program of Microfiber Reduction and motion analysis to improve flexibility and mechanical efficiency, Somax Stress Reduction can improve the weak parts of a golfer’s game, whether it is problems with
