Assist Physical Issues with Hypnotherapy

Arthritis
Arthritis is an inflammation of the joints, which can cause considerable chronic pain. Arthritis can strike anyone, of any age, at any time. Studies suggest that over 10 million adults in the UK consult their GP each year with arthritis and related conditions. There are many types of arthritis, the most common being osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. The chronic pain which sufferers often experience can make it difficult to live life to the full. Paradoxically, by restricting movement in order to avoid or reduce pain, the condition can be made worse.

Here at Edinburgh Hypnosis, we can assist with relaxation and pain management techniques to give you the power and confidence to enjoy a better quality of life.

Bedwetting / Nocturnal Enuresis
Bedwetting or nocturnal enuresis can be a frustrating and worrying problem that can cause a child or adult to wet the bed accidentally during the night. It is more common in children than adults, although about 1 in 100 continues bedwetting into adulthood. It is important to reassure the child or adult that everything is okay and to ensure they do not feel isolated with the problem.

Here at Edinburgh Hypnosis, we understand that this is a problem that sufferers wish to tackle. Using hypnotherapy, we can teach you relaxation techniques to control the bladder, increase self esteem/confidence and to wake up if you really need the toilet. We will work with you to address your individual concerns and we will create a tailored programme just for you.

Fibromyalgia
High Blood Pressure

According to the British Heart Foundation, 35% of Scottish men and 30% of Scottish women have high blood pressure (hypertension). There are many factors that contribute to high blood pressure such as stress, smoking, eating too much salt and not enough fruit and vegetables, and being overweight.

Hypertension is often referred to as the ‘silent killer’ as many people are not aware that they have it, despite the fact that it can cause heart attacks and strokes. It is therefore important for all of us to have our blood pressure checked regularly and to take steps to lead a healthier lifestyle.  The impact of stress as a contributing factor leading to high blood pressure should not be overlooked and learning to overcome feelings of stress and anxiety can often be the first step in making the other lifestyle choices required to lower blood pressure. 

We at Edinburgh Hypnosis can assist by reviewing your lifestyle and thereafter preparing a bespoke programme of hypnotherapy to overcome some of the most common factors contributing to high blood pressure (quit smokingobesity).  

IBS - Irritable Bowel Syndrome
IBS or irritable bowel syndrome is a condition that affects the digestive system. It causes pain and discomfort throughout the digestive tract and in the abdomen (bloating, wind, cramps, diarrhoea and/or constipation). Stress and anxiety is known to trigger and exacerbate symptoms, as can certain foods. In the UK it is estimated that 2 in 10 people have IBS.

There is no cure for IBS but hypnotherapy with Edinburgh Hypnosis can change your unconscious mind’s attitude towards your symptoms. It can also reduce anxiety and help with any underlying stress. We understand how distressing this condition can be and we will work with you to develop a programme of hypnotherapy to lessen your discomfort.

Insomnia
Insomnia occurs where an individual experiences difficulty in getting to sleep or difficulty staying asleep over a prolonged period of time. There are a number of physical causes of insomnia, including hormonal changes, however, for many, insomnia is caused by the daily stresses of a hectic life and/or anxiety resulting in the sufferer feeling unable to switch off. The effects of insomnia on the sufferer, such as the persistent feeling of being tired all of the time, the impact on concentration, memory problems and weight gain are well documented.

At Edinburgh Hypnosis we understand that for many, the fear of not being able to get to sleep can in itself worsen the issue. We can help you establish if there are any underlying issues causing your insomnia. We can then tailor a programme to provide you with techniques to help you to relax and maintain a positive mindset in order to allow yourself to fall asleep.

Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a skin condition that causes red patches of raised and itchy skin. Although the condition is not fully understood, it is thought that a problem with the immune system triggers an overproduction of skin cells. Certain foods, alcohol and stress are also known to exacerbate the condition. In the UK it is estimated that between 2 and 3% of the population have Psoriasis.

There is no cure but working in partnership with your doctor, Edinburgh Hypnosis will devise a programme of hypnotherapy to help you cope with the condition and to deal with any underlying stress that may be causing your symptoms to flare. We understand how distressing this condition can be and we will work with you to lessen your discomfort.

Asthma

Asthma is a condition that affects millions of people across the world. It is a condition that affects the airways in the lungs as it causes the airways to narrow and swell. This can lead to difficulty in breathing, a tight chest, wheezing and coughing. The severity of asthma can vary from person to person. Asthma can be triggered by house dust mites, animal fur, pollen, cigarette smoke, exercise and viral infections amongst other things. In the UK alone, 5.4 million people are currently receiving treatment for Asthma and it’s important to try and relieve symptoms and prevent future attacks.

Here at Edinburgh Hypnosis we can work with you to teach you relaxation techniques and assist with the emotional aspects that are connected to Asthma. It is only natural to feel threatened when you feel that your air supply is being restricted and this can make Asthma worse. We aim to work with you to help you feel more in control of Asthma.

Blushing / Erythrophobia
Blushing is an involuntary reddening of the face, usually caused by emotional stress or embarrassment. Severe blushing (erythrophobia) is often linked to social phobia or general anxiety disorder. The fear of blushing can result in blushers seeking to avoid social situations and events which may trigger this unpleasant, emotional response.

Here at Edinburgh Hypnosis, we understand how difficult it can be to confront this issue. We can build your confidence and self-esteem through hypnosis and we can teach you techniques to help control your anxiety in social situations in order to reduce the chances of blushing.

It affects around 9% of the UK population, with many feeling anxious and struggling with low self-esteem.

Quit Smoking with Hypnotherapy
Smoking is a habit and an addiction. Most people smoke as a matter of routine or to relieve tension and anxiety. Working with you we can break this pattern.
 
Let’s say you smoke 20 cigarettes a day and a pack of 20 cigarettes costs £7. How much does this cost you a year?
1 week = £7 x 7 = £49
1 month = £49 x 4 = £196
1 year = £196 x 12 = £2,352
 
That is an incredible amount of money. Just think what else you could spend that money on.
 
Additionally, there are severe health risks attached to smoking. Smoking directly causes 100,000 deaths in the UK alone from smoking-related cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and other illnesses. Furthermore, it can affect your fertility, stain your teeth and gums, and can worsen your asthma.
 
Studies have shown an exceptional amount of people quit smoking from one session of hypnotherapy.
