Total of 6 cassette tapes - custom made for length of each management session so they can be played on "continuous mode" without "DEAD SPOTS" on the tapes. These are also great for massage therapy where heavy stress on the patient is released first through the preconditioning tapes to help the patient relax more readily, more naturally, and faster, thus making your massage therapy session more beneficial overall. Will not separate the 6 tapes - must take ALL as a set. If it's an internet sale then the sale is by USPS Money Order only for both our protection. Buyer pays for shipping via USPS as well. CASH PRICE IS FIRM! As to the tapes being used for pre-massage stress relaxation and/or during actual massage sessions - YES - they can used that way along with any other type yoga/massage relaxation tapes as well. The AUTOGENIC REFLEX PHRASES on the tapes target the Autonomic Nervous System (as in Pain Management, or for just general muscle relaxation), and the ANS is targeted by specific words, word phrases, and/or double (subliminal type) background phrase commands on these tapes. Some tapes are self- explanatory if the tape description below says the word PHRASES (as in spoken phrases), or the word SOUNDS. Where there are no such title words as to each tape - I put the appropriate word in ( ). The tapes are meant to reach the relaxed or sub-conscience mind when at a totally relaxed state either before say a massage session, or even during or after say a yoga class. Whenever there is a need to relieve stress, and an added aid is needed these tapes will help assist in that manner. All the recorded tapes are on High Quality MEMOREX dBS tapes - custom made to length. As to which are voice prompted or which are just sounds here is an added breakdown of each tape, as best as I can describe.
