Why Use Clinical Hypnosis?
Although Hypnosis is recognised as dating back to the 18th century, modern-day hypnotherapy is a means of taking a person into a wonderfully relaxed state of consciousness (the trance state) whereby they become open to new ideas that positively influence their health, thoughts, and actions.
Always remaining fully in control they are generally more open to new ideas to help them change unwanted habits and behaviours such as smoking, managing anxiety, phobia's, supporting weight loss etc.
Through a process of informed consent, visualisation, a deepening focus exercise and therapeutic suggestion, remarkable changes can be made which can seem effortless.
Ways Clinical Hypnosis Can Help You From Today
Here are 6 common health issues that Hypnotherapy can help with:
Insomnia affects up to 36% of all UK adults making it hard to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up too early. As a sufferer, the resulting tiredness can lead to stress and anxiety impacting health and every area of life. Hypnosis can help by increasing slow-wave sleep and delivering embedded instructions for relaxation at the point of wakening.
2. Anxiety
We live in unusual times. When anxious we are under the control of our Sympathetic Nervous System; responsible for the flight, fight, freeze responses.
This puts our bodies under strain from the release of cortisol and adrenalin, negative thoughts, and even panic attacks. In Trance the Parasympathetic Nervous System rules, bringing calm and peace.
Looking at the root cause of the anxiety and learning self-hypnosis helps many people manage this condition.
3. IBS
IBS is a common disorder of the digestive system that can be triggered by food and also by stress.
A relaxed mind leads to a relaxed body, so hypnotherapy can be great news for IBS sufferers!
Whether a minor inconvenience or having a more serious effect on your life, using visualisations of soothing imagery and progressive relaxation, hypnotherapy is been proven to be a powerful tool to relieve the symptoms.
4. Chronic Pain
For many people, stress and anxiety are commonly experienced alongside pain and can indeed exacerbate the feelings.
Hypnotherapy enables you to focus on relaxation, letting go of any distracting thoughts by temporarily tuning out the conscious part of your mind.
When you are in trance and open to suggestions, ideas about pain relief can be given. Helping reduce stress enables the nervous system to relax and become less reactive.
We all know someone we wish would stop smoking – it could even be ourselves!
Far from having no willpower, smokers often have iron willpower, determinedly poisoning themselves despite their body's protestations and ignoring the anti-social element.
Through reinforcing a person's motivation to quit and addressing specific concerns around stopping, the new smoke-free habit is established, usually in 1 session of 60-90 minutes.
They say "Eat less and move more" but it isn't that easy for everyone is it?
Wishing to lose weight can encompass many hidden emotional factors, motivational issues and negative self-image problems as well as over-ambitious goals. Hypnotherapy can help resolve the problems of the internal saboteurs, visualise the future you wish to move towards and help you to achieve the healthy lifestyle you desire.
