Irritable Bowel practical help & support

Hypnotherapy can help reduce your symptoms but it is essential that Irritable Bowel Syndrome has been diagnosed by your Doctor, and I have received confirmation of the diagnosis as IBS can mimic other symptoms, such as bowel cancer, and hypnotherapy may mask important signs of underlying disease.

The NICE guidelines suggest that psychological therapy such as hypnotherapy is useful if there hasn’t been enough improvement with other treatments. The deep relaxation combined with consideration about lifestyle, diet, external factors, internal factors and directed hypnotherapy work over 3-4 months has seen an improvement in symptoms – most therapists using the ‘Gut specific – Directed Hypnotherapy’ report a high percentage of client satisfaction – based on clients own symptom chart.

Commitment to the specific programme – 5 sessions (plus a review session) over 12 – 14 weeks with relaxation homework
Programme to relieve your specific symptoms
Practical help and support to help you reach achievable goals
Aim for the control and freedom to have choices in your life, enjoy visiting friends, family and planning holidays

Gut Specific Hypnotherapy is a specialised area and the training I have completed was based on a research programme that audited 250 patients – it concluded that there was a marked improvement in all symptoms, quality of life and reduced depression, over 80% of the patients showed these improvements.

What our clients say...

"I had a bath at 5pm and the surges were suddenly 3 mins apart at 5.45pm my waters went and after half an hour Charlie was born – I didn’t need any stitches and didn’t tear at all! The placenta seemed to arrive very quickly and this was rather nice after all! (first baby - C)"
"We were left by ourselves most of the time – partner talked me through breathing for half an hour, it was over before I had time to think about everything – so elated afterwards couldn’t sleep! (first baby - B)"
"After my first session all the tension had gone – my head felt empty!"
"When he died I felt like I was being pulled along by a conveyor belt, not participating, no control. Counselling sessions really helped – it let me get off the conveyor and feel like I can cope. (Bereaved teenager)"
"Talking really helped – my friends and I now use your techniques. (exam stress)"
"I made a good decision – I see that now. ( after EFT )"
"He just went in and had his immunisation jabs and was OK! (needle phobia after EFT)"
"I haven’t eaten chocolate since our hypno session and my friends at work commented that I haven’t been drinking sugary drinks or snacking between meals – I hadn’t even noticed!"
"My husband enjoyed the breathing and relaxation part of the classes and he supported me physically and emotionally - I was leaning onto his shoulder and he helped me do my breathing. I woke with surges at 4am but was so relaxed I dozed off again, by lunch time they were stronger and our daughter was born at 16.30hrs (first baby - K)"
"I just focused on what I needed to do and went out and did the presentation – without the usual shaking and nerves – my colleague said my voice was steady and clear! (hypnotherapy for public speaking)"
"It seemed to help more with my anxiety and sleep, which in turn helped with headaches and tinnitus, I listened to the tape at night – very good for getting to sleep (Hypnotherapy reducing tinnitus at night)"

British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy

"The Professional Standards Authority (formerly called the Council for Healthcare Regulatory Excellence) has set up an accredited voluntary register scheme for counselling, hypnotherapy and other health & social care services. Counsellors, psychotherapists and hypnotherapists should belong to an AVR (Accredited Voluntary Register). AVR registration will be seen as the benchmark for practice and clients, employers and organisations will be looking for therapists who are registered on an AVR. The National Hypnotherapy Society was the first organisation to receive this award and National Counselling Society was the second counselling organisation to receive accreditation under the AVR scheme. Only registers of organisations which meet very high standards will be awarded AVR status, and this ensures consumer protection to anyone looking for hypnotherapy or counselling services. ."
