Have you been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, extreme fatigue, sleep disturbances, and cognitive issues (“fibro fog”). Symptoms often include muscle stiffness, heightened sensitivity to touch/temperature, headaches, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It affects how the brain processes pain, often causing symptoms to flare up unpredictably.

How can Hypnotherapy help? 

Hypnotherapy helps manage fibromyalgia by using deep relaxation and focused attention to alter pain perception, reduce stress, and improve sleep, often resulting in fewer painful flare-ups. It acts as a complementary tool to calm the nervous system, addressing chronic pain and associated symptoms like fatigue and anxiety. 

Have you been diagnosed with IBS?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms include persistent stomach cramps, abdominal pain, bloating, and fluctuating bowel habits (loose bowels, constipation, or both). These symptoms often come and go, with flare-ups triggered by stress or food. It is a long-term condition that does not cause permanent damage to the gut.

How can hypnotherapy help?

Gut-directed hypnotherapy (GDH) is a highly effective, evidence-based treatment for IBS that reduces symptoms like pain, bloating, diarrhoea, and constipation in up to 70-80% of patients. It works by calming the brain-gut connection, reducing gut sensitivity, and alleviating stress and anxiety, with benefits lasting for years.
