Treat Pain Management with Clinical Hypnosis
By the time you are reading this, you have probably been to many appointments and exhausted multiple avenues to find pain relief.
Pain is a personal experience that involves our bodies, our minds and even our social environment. Pain isn’t merely a physical sensation; it’s also our brain’s interpretation and management of that sensation. Fortunately, we have the power to influence our discomfort levels through our minds. Hypnosis allows to you to alter perception, narrow and divert the focus of attention. It also allows you to separate yourself from worries that might amplify the pain.
Using MRI scans it has been demonstrated that hypnosis can decrease pain unpleasantness, resulting in positive changes in your thoughts, emotions and behaviour.
Is Hypnosis more effective for certain types of pain?
Hypnosis is widely used for chronic pain when you already know the cause and it is not a sign of a new injury or condition, so you don’t need to pay as much attention to it.
It is also effective for acute pain, for example, it can be used to manage labour pain and it has a long history as a non-pharmacological pain management technique.
Multiple studies validate the use of hypnosis for managing pain associated with a variety of conditions such as pre/post operative interventions, migraines, IBS, cancer, back pain, fibromyalgia and more.
