Physical Pain

In light of the growing opioid crisis, it is imperative we find an alternative way to manage pain. Hypnosis may well be the answer we’ve been looking for. Research has shown clinical hypnosis to be helpful for both acute and chronic pain. During hypnosis, you will learn to use your mind and thoughts to manage your physical discomfort. It has been found to be generally more effective than physical therapy and pain education.

According to the Arthritis Foundation https://www.arthritis.org/living-with-arthritis/pain-management/tips/hypnosis-for-pain.php, hypnosis is a gentle way to reduce the pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. It states that studies show more than 75% of people with arthritis and related disease experience significant pain relief using clinical hypnosis.
