Common Health Issues Treated by Hypnosis
                     Common Health 
Issues Treated by 
Hypnosis
Hypnosis is often portrayed in TV 
shows and movies as a tactic to 
control people and their mind for 
committing crimes or making 
someone fall in love and likewise. The 
way hypnosis is being shown in the 
media makes them look like a fun 
activity! However, hypnosis does 
much more than mere entertainment. 
Hypnosis, in fact, can benefit your 
health and well-being if used in a 
proper manner.
In the healthcare industry, hypnosis 
is used as a psychological treatment 
that helps people in experiencing 
changes in perceptions, thoughts, 
sensations and behaviours. However, 
hypnosis for medical issues 
should be done in a clinical setting 2
under the supervision of a trained, 
licensed healthcare professional such 
as a psychologist or a physician.
Hypnosis for medical issues typically involves suggestions for relaxation and overall 
well-being that may last during the session but can be reactivated later by the 
patient. Common approaches involve instructions that make a person think about the 
good times, positive experiences, or verbal cues for drawing them into a trance-like 
state.
Three Common Ways to Use Hypnosis for Medical Issues
Insomnia and Troubled Sleeping
Hypnosis can be used for helping people with insomnia, sleepwalk issues or those 
struggling with falling and staying asleep. The technique helps in relaxing you enough 
in order to get you to sleep easily. In the process, verbal cues are used for putting you 
in a trance-like state, which is similar to how it feels when you get involved in a movie 
and you do not notice what’s going on around you! After the hypnosis process, you 
will fall asleep without any hassles.

Anxiety and Phobia
Hypnosis is a relaxation technique that can ease anxiety. The process is more 
effective in people whose anxiety stems from a chronic health condition like heart 
disease. Hypnosis also can help you if you are struggling with any sort of phobia! 
Phobia is a type of anxiety disorder where you get intensely scared of something that 
does not even pose a significant threat! Hypnosis encourages your body for 
activating its natural relaxation response through the use of a phrase which helps in 
slowing down breathing, lowering blood pressure, and instilling an overall sense of

Hypnosis is also effective in treating the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). 
IBS is a condition that involves abdominal pain created by your bowels. Hypnosis 
helps in improving the symptoms such as constipation, bloating and diarrhea. At 
times IBS can also cause issues like nausea, backache, fatigue and urinary problems, 
which can also be treated with the help of hypnosis. Hypnosis takes you through 
progressive relaxation by providing soothing images and sensations to fight back the 
symptoms.
Apart from these health issues, there are many other health issues that can be 
treated with the help of hypnosis that include chronic pain, quitting smoking, weight 4
loss and many more.
