Hypnotherapy for Pain relief
Hypnotherapy is used widely for pain relief and some people have been known to undergo surgical procedures using hypnosis without needing anaesthetic. It is a simple, non intrusive method without side effects.
Pain is a signal that alerts us that something is wrong and it protects us from further damage, for example it warns us not to walk on a broken ankle or to seek help such as in a case of acute appendicitis. Sometimes after our pain signal has alerted us to the problem and action has been taken, but it forgets to switch off and leaves us with chronic pain that serves no useful purpose and can make life miserable. In a case like this hypnotherapy can be used to change the perception of pain by lowering anxiety and changing the minds perception of pain and give relief from it.
