Success with IBS and Clinical Hypnotherapy
IBS typically is described as having physical, emotional and mental symptoms. Some of the symptoms are:
Physical – may include abdominal pain or discomfort, bloating, wind, diarrhoea, constipation and nausea.
Emotional – can be feeling panic, anxiety, fear, stress, worried, helpless, hopeless, out of control, and guilt depending on the circumstances.
Mental – might be stress, overthinking, and loss of control.
Managing these types of symptoms requires a plan to release you from that feeling of not being in control and to prevent reoccurring patterns of constipation, diarrhoea and pain to live an anxiety free life, the life you may only have imagined was possible.
Effective management of IBS involves nutrition, stress management, and, in some cases, medication.
Clinical Hypnotherapy has emerged as a highly effective treatment for stress management, alleviating IBS symptoms and restoring a sense of control.
Nutrition may require you to become aware if not already of the foods you eat and the repercussions. You may find that one type of food on its own has no side effects but put with another food and all hell breaks loose.
Stress Management involves the emotional and mental symptoms listed above. Learning how to overcome anxiety and reduce stress can have a major impact on IBS.
Emotional regulation plays a big part. All of which respond extremely well to Clinical Hypnotherapy.
Medication is a useful tool to be used when required. It can be quite handy in situations where you are unable to let your body run its course or when symptoms are not naturally subsiding.
Carrying medication with you at all times just in case you unintentionally eat or drink something that your body is going to have issue with will also help with those feelings of anxiety, pain and loss of control.
IBS disrupts regular life, fostering negative beliefs and feelings. We can assist you in recognising thoughts and behaviours that worsen symptoms, promoting overall well-being.
Typically, four sessions are recommended for IBS, supplemented by a personalised recording for daily home support.
