The word hypnotherapy can conjure up a variety of visualisations including someone sitting in a chair and hypnotising you and you are out of control, not knowing what is happening.
In actual fact a qualified hypnotherpist treats various ailments by sitting and talking to you and you are aware of the words whilst relaxing mind and body.
It can be called a conversation ‘therapy’ which helps a person to be more confident, less stressed and helps to break habits such as smoking , giving up chocolate and nail biting to name a few.
• If you suffer from eczema and you scratch yourself then hypnotherapy and biofeedback may be able to break up the habit.
• Stress can trigger off many symptoms even if they are not the cause.
A qualified therapist can help by measuring signals which come from your body. There is a device which is used to note your breathing, heart beats and how much you are stressed by the muscle tension in your whole body.
This is called biofeedback.
The device listens to each part of your body you learn how to change the areas which require that change.
Once you have made the improvements your body will work more effeciently.
When you have learnt to trust the signals from your body you will feel comfortable enough to reduce the stress without any further listening sessions.
Note : Do your research and use a qualified therapist.
