Sophrologists: run group relaxation sessions online

How sophrologists can run group relaxation sessions with online booking: places per session, weekly cycles, drop-in and company sessions. €5/month.

5 min read

A group relaxation session works best with a known number of mats and a calm start. Collecting names by message means you never quite know who's coming, and latecomers break the quiet. With Book, each group is a service with a set number of places; participants book their own place, a full session leaves your page, and everyone gets the time in their calendar.

One service per group

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Individual session1 h1

Durations and places are examples: set places to your room and mats, according to the rules that apply to you.

Places matched to the room

Each online booking takes one place, so you know how many mats to lay out. When the last place goes, the session leaves your page, so nobody arrives to a full room. A friend who wants to come books their own place.

Weekly cycles

Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. A ten-week cycle on Tuesday evenings takes a few minutes to set: choose Tuesday, set the end date to the last session, and the series appears on your page. Participants book each session, or you book a full cycle for a participant from your bookings list.

Drop-in sessions

If you also run one-off sessions, such as a seasonal relaxation evening, create them as a separate service with their own date, so they don't mix with cycle groups.

What the description should say

  • what a session involves, and that no experience is needed;
  • what to wear and bring, such as comfortable clothes and a blanket;
  • when the door closes, so late arrivals don't disturb the group;
  • how to contact you before booking with any question, according to the rules that apply to you.

Keep health details out of the note

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email and appears in the participant's calendar file. Ask participants not to write health details there; anyone with a question can contact you first.

Company groups

For a session at a company, create a private service with one place: the contact books once for the whole team. Or create a dedicated service named with the company and date so each employee books their own place. Book doesn't take payments or issue invoices, so invoice the company as you do now.

Cancelling a session

Participants can't move or cancel online: they contact you. If you cancel a session, tell each participant yourself, since Book doesn't email clients about changes.

What Book doesn't do

Book doesn't take payments, sell session cards or send reminders. One booking page per business, no staff field: with a colleague, create services per sophrologist. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
