Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) 

 

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common condition that affects the digestive system, causing symptoms like stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea or constipation. These symptoms often come and go, lasting for days, weeks, or even months, and for many, IBS becomes a long-term issue that impacts daily life, work, relationships, and emotional wellbeing.

​

While the exact cause of IBS isn’t fully understood, research highlights a strong link between stress, anxiety, and the gut-brain connection. Your gut has its own nervous system (the enteric nervous system) which communicates directly with the brain. When stress and anxiety levels are high, IBS symptoms often worsen.

​

Through Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, I help you manage the stress and emotional triggers that contribute to IBS and chronic pain. You’ll learn how to calm your nervous system, rebalance your gut, and reduce flare-ups—so you can feel more comfortable, confident, and in control again.

​

Living with chronic pain can feel exhausting, isolating, and relentless. Whether it’s back pain, fibromyalgia, joint issues, nerve pain, or another long-term condition, the physical discomfort often affects your sleep, mood, energy, and overall quality of life.

Chronic pain

​

Chronic pain isn’t just about the body, it’s closely linked to the brain and nervous system. When pain signals are constantly being triggered, the brain can become more sensitive over time, intensifying how pain is experienced.

​

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy works by calming the mind and body, reducing the stress and emotional tension that can make pain feel worse. Through deep relaxation, guided focus, and practical mindset shifts, this approach helps retrain how your brain responds to pain, supporting both physical and emotional relief.

​

Many clients find they not only manage their symptoms better but also feel more in control, less overwhelmed, and more able to enjoy life again.
