Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

2 in 10 people in the UK have IBS. Many more suffer from irritable bowel symptoms of pain, bloating, and changes to their bowel routines. One of the leading factors that exacerbate IBS is our mental state, with stress, anxiety, and depression intensifying symptoms. The symptoms alone can create a vicious cycle of anxiety taking control over our lives concerning where you will go, what you will eat, and so on.

Through clinical research hypnotherapy has been recognised by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence in the treatment of IBS, including improved well-being, quality of life, and symptom management including reduced pain, bloating, diarrhoea, and constipation.

Solution focused hypnotherapy sessions can help you to understand how stress and anxiety can manifest into or exacerbate IBS symptoms, how you can utilise your mind to control your IBS symptoms better, create a positive mindset to improve well-being, and utilises hypnosis to create a relaxed state of body and mind.

“My IBS has been better, I have not had as many flare ups. I am able to rationalise my symptoms and thoughts with myself so it does not increase my symptoms or impact on what I am doing.”
