Hypnotherapy has moved well beyond its mystical status as a method used by stage performers to manipulate the behavior of volunteers for the entertainment of audiences. Today, such techniques are widely used by a growing list of professional practitioners to assist patients overcome a variety of physical and psychological problems.

How It Works

In order for real change to occur in one’s actions, first a change needs to take place within the subconscious mind which is home to one’s habits, imagination, emotions, instincts, intuition, and memory. These subconscious inner attributes are what form dreams and regulate the automatic functions and automatic reactions of the physical body. Therefore, lasting outer transformation is a direct result of the subconscious mind making a meaningful shift in an area linked to the desired result.

Hypnotherapy Melbourne utilizes this scientifically proven knowledge to access the subconscious mind and make subtle changes within, which in turn bring desired transformations in the physical being. Hypnotic experiences are the only way to access the subconscious mind. Therefore, hypnosis is used to open doors that lie beyond ordinary consciousness so that the power of the subconscious can be harnessed to bring about lasting physical changes. Meditation, for example, is a form of self-induced hypnotherapy.

Benefits of Hypnotherapy

As a matter of fact, the subconscious mind is so powerful that hypnotherapy can induce positive results in a wide range of areas including improved health, pain relief, psychological adjustments, increased learning abilities, and habit changes. Hypnotic techniques are now commonly used by such professionals as physicians, nurses, counselors, massage therapists, psychologists, and sports and life coaches in order to achieve desired results.

Increasing a patient’s threshold for both acute and chronic pain is one main use of hypnotherapy techniques. Other health benefits can be realized in conquering eating disorders, phobias, addictions, insomnia, and a variety of negative habits, behaviors and emotions. Besides health and stress management, positive results of hypnotherapy can also be obtained in the areas of improvement to one’s motivation, career achievements, concentration, confidence, and recall.

Hypnosis for Anxiety

Anxiety is an issue that most people deal with in one form or another on a regular basis. It normally occurs as mild anxiety that arises from having a job interview, tackling an upcoming exam, or meeting a new love interest. This type of anxiety is quite common and normally subsides once the stressful situation has passed.

However, anxiety can also manifest through serious bouts of clinical depression that can be debilitating to those it affects. Approximately five percent of people are currently battling a form of anxiety that is considered severe. Although the reasons are not known for sure, women experience higher levels of anxiety than men. Hypnosis for anxiety is being used on a wider scale to alleviate and treat such devastating forms of the problem.

The Four Basic Categories of Anxiety

Although types of anxieties vary widely and manifest in different forms among individuals, most fit into four basic categories which can be treated through sessions of hypnosis for anxiety.

General Anxiety – Phobias of all sorts are generally classified under general anxiety. The list for such fears is as vast as the conditions of human experience, but some examples are achluophobia (fear of darkness), katagelophobia (fear of ridicule), chiraptophobia (fear of being touched), melissophobia, (fear of bees), genophobia (fear of sexual relations), and the infamous arachnophobia (fear of spiders).

Some phobias can be as odd as having a fear of crossing bridges, a fear of looking into a mirror, or even a fear of time. Phobias can occur in young children, adults, or the elderly and can last for short periods of time or continue for years.

Obsessive'-compulsive Disorders (OCDs) – OCDs are classified as anxieties that affect behavioral patterns on frequent or repeating cycles. Some examples of OCDs are the need to perform rituals before completing tasks, constantly washing hands, stealing certain objects, etc. Panic attacks often occur in those affected by obsessive-compulsive disorders should their “cycle” be disrupted.

Panic Disorders – This type of anxiety is triggered when overwhelming feelings of fear or danger occur, usually when a dreaded event is forthcoming. However, sometimes just the thought of such an event can cause panic attacks in some patients. Symptoms of panic attacks include pain in the stomach, head, or chest, and attacks can sometimes induce migraine headaches.

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) – PTSD is normally a condition where returning to a terrifying event causes severe anxiety. Soldiers who have seen combat are commonly diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder. Car accidents and other traumatic or catastrophic events can cause PTSD as well.

Hypnosis for Anxiety Can Help

Hypnosis is often quite effective for alleviating anxieties. By entering into a person’s subconscious, professionals performing hypnosis can often locate the source of the problem and use positive affirmations to replace the triggers of the existing anxiety.

Basically, hypnosis for anxiety reprograms the subconscious mind with positive thoughts when certain events occur (like discovering a spider) so that the anxious person remains calm and deals with that situation in a rational manner.
