Managing Pain

If you are living with acute or chronic pain, not relieved by painkillers or other therapies, it’s easy to feel helpless.

Acute pain can result from injury, illness or surgery. While you can expect it to go away eventually, you may experience considerable suffering before it does. Chronic, long-term pain can result from the same things – or sometimes there can be no clear explanation for your suffering.

You should always consult a doctor to see if the cause behind your pain can be diagnosed. If there is no clear cause, or your pain does not respond to appropriate medical treatment, hypnosis may be able to help manage your pain.

When you are hypnotised, you are intensely relaxed, immediately relieving the tension and stress that can accompany pain.

While you are so relaxed, I can address your unconscious and make suggestions that may reduce your pain. I can help you alter your experience of pain so that you feel more comfortable.

This very effective approach offers long-term relief and I also teach you self-hypnosis techniques so you can reinforce it over time.
