Find Relief from IBS with Integrative Hypnotherapy

What are the symptoms of IBS?

Among the most common symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome include abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, and stomach cramps. In addition to these symptoms, some people with IBS experience gas, bloating, changes in bowel movements, fatigue, and feelings of stress. The severity and frequency of these symptoms can vary greatly from person to person. Some people may experience IBS symptoms on a regular basis while others may only have one or two episodes each year. It’s important to note that if you have IBS, you aren’t alone. It’s a very common condition that affects millions of people around the world.

How does hypnotherapy help with IBS?

Results from various studies suggest that hypnosis may be an effective treatment for irritable bowel syndrome. Hypnosis has been shown to help reduce stress and anxiety, both of which play a significant role in triggering IBS symptoms. Additionally, using hypnosis to help manage IBS can help improve a person’s overall quality of life by allowing them to better cope with the condition. The findings from various studies suggest that hypnosis may also be helpful in improving a person’s response to certain medications. However, it’s important to note that hypnosis is not a cure forIBS. What it can do is help people manage their symptoms and cope with the condition by improving their overall lifestyle.

The connection between the Subconscious Mind and IBS symptoms

The subconscious mind works in the background of our daily lives, and it can have a significant influence on our feelings and behaviours. For example, someone with a positive outlook on life will likely feel more confident in their abilities and outlook. On the other hand, someone who experiences a lot of stress and anxiety in their everyday life will have more negative feelings and emotions. And although it may seem like these negative feelings and emotions arise from nowhere, they actually stem from the subconscious mind. If you’ve ever woken up from a nightmare feeling extremely anxious, you’ve experienced this firsthand. It’s common to have a heightened sense of fear and anxiety after experiencing a disturbing dream due to the subconscious mind being triggered.

How working with the subconscious mind in hypnotherapy can help treat IBS

When working with the subconscious mind in hypnotherapy, a therapist will often use guided imagery to help their clients achieve a state of deep relaxation. This can allow your subconscious mind to feel more open to new approaches to managing IBS symptoms. Once the subconscious mind has been opened up to new approaches, the hypnotherapist can begin using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help re-program your subconscious mind to reduce anxiety and stress. CBT is a psychotherapeutic technique that helps people recognise the habits and thoughts that are contributing to their IBS symptoms. Once these triggers have been identified, the hypnotherapist can help their client create new habits and ways of thinking that will reduce their symptoms.

Is psychotherapy effective in treating IBS?

Although hypnotherapy and CBT are widely accepted as effective therapies for treating IBS, there has been a lot of debate surrounding the effectiveness of psychotherapy. Some studies have found that psychotherapy is an effective treatment for IBS. However, other studies have found it to be ineffective once again showing that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to treating IBS. The effectiveness of psychotherapy will depend largely on the individual. It’s important to note that psychotherapy is often used in combination with hypnotherapy and CBT. Because each approach can be tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient, using multiple therapies can be the most effective way to treat IBS.
