Connect your mind and body and start managing your pain!
Firstly, If you are experiencing any type of pain, you are always advised to see your doctor. They will be able to investigate further to find out what is causing it and how best to treat it.
Did you know that there are two different types of pain - acute (short term) and chronic (long term) pain? Chronic pain is often more complicated and may be a result of a medical condition, or there may not be any obvious cause. This doesn't mean the pain isn't real, it just makes pain management treatment more complicated.
When we are in physical pain, relaxing and falling asleep can become difficult. Sleep is important as it gives our minds and bodies time to recover from the day - something that is especially important to those with chronic pain conditions. Another important aspect of pain management involves looking at the link between the body and mind.
Stress and anxiety are common side effects of pain and can even make the sensation of pain feel worse. I can help to reduce stress, relax the nervous system and change the thought patterns related to pain. This can make a huge difference to your perception of pain and it’s for this reason, many opt for hypnotherapy.
