HEALTH PROBLEMS

The decision to seek help is the first step. When you come to see me the rest is easy.

One of the major reasons for health problems is stress;

Stress is a powerful negative factor in your life it can cause a collapse of your body's defences which, in turn, can cause a breakdown in your resistance to illness, disease, chronic conditions or mental disorders.

The change of situations or circumstances can cause stress on the body, whether it be a divorce, pregnancy, children, changing schools or moving house.

The continued effect of stress can produce many physical ailments these could include, headaches, peptic ulcers, arthritis, diarrhoea, asthma, sexual problems, high blood pressure, muscle tension, and even cancer. A very important issue to mention is that disease is intensified by stress.

Your health may have been affected due to an injury or accident and these in turn lower blood pressure, reduces your immune system's capability and, as you have lower blood pressure, you can have a temperature below normal. The shock influences the nervous system over various important body functions principally circulation and respiration. You are now more prone to illness.

After an accident it is common that people could for example have reocurring spasms; this could be due to the muscles still compensating for the injury that has recovered.

HHOW I CAN HELP YOU

Hypnosis can help with the two major factors in health problems.

1.Reduce the fear and anxiety associated with your problem, eradicate, change or alter the pain to a more appropriate level.
2. Next hypnosis can be used to aid healing, recovery and to maintain health.

The more change of circumstances you experience the more attention you should spend on balancing the body through diet, periodic time to leisure and relaxation in order to stay well. The elimination of harmful substances, and or stimulants is vital to balance the body. These include, alcohol, toxic substances, and environment .Also prescriptive drugs that are no longer necessary.

Working with me we will do a personalised psychometric test, understanding your body mind type and by being aware of what you as an individual need. Being self aware and understanding the sensations when you are in balance and the sensations in your body when you are stressed can help you bring yourself back into balance before disease can manifest in the first place.

If your level of stress can be reduced then your health can be improved. The vital factor is your perception of the circumstances not the actual circumstances themselves.

If your condition is exacerbated by the stress effect you can treat the stress and then focus on the specific symptom or condition.

Hypnotherapy (can be utilised) to help many of the phases of cancer treatment. The symptoms of the disease range from deep emotional distress to pain caused by medical treatments and surgery. Hypnosis can be applied to help manage the pain, fatigue, irritability, low blood count, infection, insomnia, and side effects of the chemotherapy and radiation, such as nausea and vomiting.(See Pain Control)

The imagery of a normal blood count and healthy cells may strengthen the immune system to fight infection. Visualising red and white blood cells surging through the body with healthy, powerful cells fighting the infection can be used in the pre or post surgery phase.

Total health consists of many elements. If you have a specific health problem please inform your doctor that you will be using hypnosis.

• Fear removed, you are more at ease and do not exacerbate the problem
• Visualisation can be used to aid recovery and speed up the healing process.
• Boosting your immune system and increasing antibodies has been proven with hypnosis. (Walker 1993)
