AT within the NHS
Autogenic Training is one of a wide range of Complementary Therapies available to NHS patients at the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital (RLHH). The Autogenic Training Department at the RLHH was started in 1985. It has since grown and developed, reflecting the increased awareness by both doctors and patients of the delicate balance of Body, Mind and Spirit.

Most patients attending the hospital have chronic health problems, often responding poorly to conventional medicine. They are referred for AT by other doctors in the hospital when it is clear to both doctor and patient that stress is an important component. They are caught in the 'Symptom Stress Spiral':
