Brain & Body Slumber: a Sleep Therapy Program

The sleep therapy program lasts 16 weeks with advice provided at the end of the 16 weeks for ongoing maintenance if needed.

The Brain & Body Slumber sleep therapy program works with what could be the root cause of poor sleep routine.

The root cause can be a retained Fear Paralysis reflex which can be linked to stress, illness or intoxication during pregnancy, traumatic birth, and extreme physical and/or emotional stress after birth (at any age).  

We gradually work through movements which replicate the movements baby makes during pregnancy which can help the Fear Paralysis reflex switch off and so can help reduce or resolve anxiety and other challenges listed above. 

There are usually 4 appointments within the 16 weeks (every 4 weeks), however if you find you would prefer more support, we can have more frequent appointments.

Our appointments will last around 1 hour and email support is available throughout the sleep therapy program.

You will receive a detailed questionnaire for completion prior to beginning the Brain & Body Slumber therapy program covering the usual contact information, questions around pregnancy, birth and early child development and current challenges.  It is not a problem if you do not have all the information requested, if, for example, you are an adoptive or foster family, just provide as much as you are able to.

The movements given (and practiced) in the appointments should then be practiced at home daily ideally (minimum 5 times per week).  A reminder of the movements is emailed through after the appointment along with how long to practice them for each day.

To begin with the movements will take only 1-2 minutes per day, building up to a maximum of 15 minutes per day.

Bedtime is often a good time to do the movements as part of the bedtime routine, but time of day is not important so you can fit the movements around your daily routine.

Yes, it is possible to complete the appointments online if travel is not possible.

£117 per appointment discounted to £97 per appointment during school hours.

It's obviously best to complete the Brain & Body Slumber sleep therapy program, however if you feel it doesn't suit your child, there is no commitment to completing the 16 weeks and you only pay for the appointments taken. NB there is a 50% charge for appointments cancelled within 48 hours of the appointment.

As with any therapy program, unfortunately results cannot be guaranteed because everyone is different and everyone responds differently to the therapy program.  However, the vast majority of clients see change when working consistently with the movements, with some clients seeing quite significant change after the first 4 weeks and others it can taking longer to see change and at a slower pace.
