Sleep Enhancement Programme

Designed for adults and children alike. These days, expectation and opportunity takes a toll on our abilities.

Children are expected more and more to perform and succeed at the highest levels. Adults work longer hours, have more responsibility with family and work, it is no wonder that sleep suffers both in quality and duration. On occasions, prescribed medication, out of balance lifestyles, inappropriate eating patterns negatively influence the quality and function of sleep. Individuals undergo a programme that transforms the experience of sleep and helps thereafter to re-align life experiences. This is truly life enhancing.

Pain Management Support

Very often certain physical conditions do not respond to traditional forms pain control nor is it the case that traditional forms of pain control suit everyone who suffers pain. By learning the ability to go deeply into hypnosis, the person develops a natural ability to regain control over the experience of pain. This is reassuring and empowering. Dealing with pain in the present time, where it can be managed and the future can therefore be much improved, also adds to the persons' confidence to take charge. Added benefits include no unwanted side affects. This provision provides careful assessment of the person's condition and is dependent upon them notifying their GP prior to visiting the hypnotherapist.

Pre & Post Operative Anxiety Management Programme

More frequently people report anxiety to such a degree that they cancel medical operations that alleviate life-threatening conditions. The person who avoids dental work would also be in this category. Much can be done to help individuals resolve anxiety and put their concerns aside. Anyone interested or needing this support needs to consider giving themselves several months in advance of their operation, to work on reducing the extent of such a difficulty, rather than giving themselves a 'few days'. Much can be done to achieve a positive experience and allow the operation to proceed with an enhanced likelihood of remaining calm beforehand, indeed reduced bleeding during the operation itself and healing more quickly thereafter.
