Pain Management

Hypnosis for Pain Management
Pain is like a burglar alarm. It alerts us that there is a an immediate problem. What can we do with the pain which, like the burglar alarm that can’t be disconnected, continues to irritate us? The sources of many types of pain can be chronic or ongoing. Migraine headaches, back pain, arthritis are among the types of chronic pain that people suffer.

How Hypnosis Can Help
Hypnosis can help you to learn to control unwanted, unnecessary pain, but still experience the sensation that is alerting you to the fact that there is a problem. Some pain, even pain of long duration and deep intensity, will be positively changed with the use of hypnosis. Most commonly, relief from pain occurs in the first few sessions. Some people notice that their pain subsides immediately while others feel results hours after their hypnosis session.

There may be subconscious reasons, reasons of which you may not even be aware, for keeping the pain. It may even seem strange to you that you might need to keep your pain but there are often the advantages as well as disadvantages to having pain. Pain may result in your avoiding work, or getting sympathy, or getting out of responsibilities that you don’t like.

These benefits can defeat your motivation to feel better and reduce pain. Because we know the pain can be a signal, a signal that there is something wrong, we may have fears about shutting it off. Hypnosis allows you to leave intact your alarm systems and allows you to reduce only the unnecessary hurt or pain.
