Relaxation Therapy

Relaxation therapy is more than just 'unwinding'; it is learning essential tools to navigate daily sensory inputs and emotional demands. We help children and teens recognize bodily cues and respond effectively.

Our focus areas

• Body & breathing exercises: Becoming aware of the breath opens a direct pathway to physical calm and mental clarity.
• Kids yoga & visualization: Through playful movement and guided imagination, we soothe the nervous system. Visualizations help build an inner 'safe haven', boosting focus and confidence.
• Mindfulness & stress reduction: Effective practices to quiet rumination and lower overall feelings of stress.
• Psycho-education & sensory understanding: We explain in child-friendly language what happens in the brain and body under tension. The child understands their sensory processing and learns practical self-regulation tools for busy situations.

Sensory Processing

Everyone processes sensory input — sound, light, touch, movement — uniquely. For some children, the world feels 'too intense' (hypersensitivity/overload), while others crave input to stay alert (hyposensitivity/sensory seeking). At De Puzzel, we help children and families decode this sensory profile.

• Sensory screening & profiling: We explore how the child responds to various sensory stimuli. Which inputs trigger distress, and which provide calming focus?
• Self-regulation strategies: We equip the child with practical self-regulation techniques and sensory coping tools.
• Practical guidance for home and school: We translate clinical insights into actionable recommendations for parents and teachers, ensuring consistent support whenever sensory overload occurs. Also read our in-depth article on autism and sensory processing.
