At Empowering Health, we offer Hypnotherapy to assist with optimizing your well-being.
What is Hypnotherapy? Hypnotherapy is a tool whereby the therapist guides the client into a deep state of focussed relaxation. In this state, the therapist invites the client to think about experiences, behaviours, and situations in ways that assist the person to change the way he or she thinks and behaves. In hypnotherapy, the client is always in control and the therapist suggestions are up to the client to decide upon. As such, it is thought that hypnosis is effectively self-hypnosis.
Clients are empowered through hypnotherapy to develop new mindfulness tools for management of chronic conditions and to eliminate unwanted behaviours and negative thought patterns. Hypnotherapy can also be used to develop resilience to stress, enhance skills such as public speaking, and/or support clients in preparation of events like medical procedures, dental work, and childbirth.
What conditions can be treated with Hypnotherapy? Hypnotherapy can support clients with the following:
smoking cessation
pre-natal support and childbirth
compulsive behaviours, including hair pulling, nail biting, and bruxism
sleep disturbances
anxiety and stress management
fear and phobias
physical concerns, including chronic pain and aspects of irritable bowel disease
