Pain causes stress and anxiety, and these are known to decrease the ability of a person to cope with pain, so every hypnotherapy session includes techniques on how to calm and relax.  Not just in the surgery but with effective tools to take away and practice.    Hypnotherapy can then be used to desensitise the person to pain, using induced analgesia or dissociating the person away from the pain.

Coping with any sort of pain, short or long term, however trivial or serious can be helped in a relatively short time with hypnotherapy.

No two sufferers are alike, so each case has to be assesd in depth before a therapy can be decided apon.  However, pain causes anxiety, and anxious patients are shown to cope less well with pain.  so each session of pain control includes calming and relaxation strategies and tools, such as self hypnosis, for the patient to go away with.

Hhypnotherapy can be used to allow the patient to cope more effectively with the debilitating effect of pains, back or joint, long or short term.  Relief for 1 -2 hours per day is all that some patients require.  Others want to be able to put the pain out of their mind and go about their normal lives.  Hypnotherapy can give that opportunity.
