Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy, or hypnosis, is a type of therapy in which clients are put in a trance-like state that leaves them more open to suggestion. Hypnotherapy is used to help a client create unconscious change, which may result in new behaviors, feelings or thoughts. Unlike how it is sometimes portrayed in pop culture, hypnosis will not cause you to lose control over your behavior. People under hypnosis typically feel calm and relaxed, and remain aware of what is happening. Hypnotherapy can be helpful in treating conditions including depression, anxiety, stress and insomnia. It can also be beneficial in conquering negative habits, like smoking or over eating.

Hypnotherapy is a recommended treatment for IBS, particularly when brain-body communication contributes to symptoms. It can also be highly effective for other physical ailments, such as chronic lower back pain and fibromyalgia, which often share similar underlying mechanisms of stress, tension, and nervous system dysregulation. By addressing the mind-body connection, hypnotherapy helps reduce hypervigilance, anxiety, and physical symptoms, promotes relaxation, and enhances overall well-being.
