Hypnotherapy for Pain Management offers a gentle, supportive way to work with the mind-body connection. As a qualified hypnotherapist, I use focused techniques to help clients engage the subconscious mind, often encouraging a shift in how discomfort is experienced or perceived. While hypnotherapy is not a replacement for medical care, it may assist with managing chronic tension, supporting calm during flare-ups, or easing the emotional distress that often accompanies long-term pain conditions. Hypnotherapy for Pain Management Sessions are designed to promote relaxation and may help reduce stress-related responses in the body, which can contribute to a more balanced sense of wellbeing. Hypnotherapy can also support individuals in building internal coping strategies, focusing the mind away from discomfort, and fostering a sense of empowerment over their own healing journey. Each session is tailored to your needs and always works alongside any existing medical or therapeutic support you are receiving.
Chronic pain affects more than two fifths of the British population, this equates to 28 million people, and each of these individuals have reported to have been living with pain for three months or longer. Statistically, pain levels seem to increase in individuals as they age with 62% of people over 75 suffering daily with chronic pain. Pain clinics and pain management programmes are offered by many hospitals now, but most pain related illnesses are still managed with medication. Pain is debilitating, exhausting and can really lower mood and mental stability and overall effectiveness. If you want to manage your pain in a drug free way hypnotherapy may be able to help. The ‘Curable’ pain app suggests, “All pain originates in the brain and that pain is an opinion not a fact. To get rid of pain you have to treat the brain”. Hypnotherapy can help you to do this.
According to the NHS, chronic pain is a complex condition that can affect both physical and emotional wellbeing.
