Hypnosis Migraine

Anyone that has suffered or does suffer from Migraines, knows it is far worse than a normal headache. Affecting around 1 in every 5 women and around 1 in every 15 men, usually presenting on 1 side of the head and felt as a moderate or severe headache with throbbing pain. For some people this can be extremely debilitating as can occur several times per week. For others they may suffer from a migraine occasionally. Read on to find out how Hypnosis Migraine can work for you.

Many people also have associated symptoms such as feeling sick, or physically being sick and increased sensitivity to light and/or sound.

Causes of Migraines and common triggers:

Causes of Migraines are still widely unknown, although they are thought to be the result of temporary changes in the chemicals, nerves and blood vessels in the brain. There is also a suspected heredity link, as around half of those who experience migraines also have a close family member who suffer with the condition.

Whilst the exact cause is unclear some people find common triggers can include:

• Stress
• Tiredness
• Starting their period
• Certain Foods or Drinks

Preventing Migraines

While there is currently no cure, many people find that laying down in a darkened room, sleeping and/or over the counter painkillers can help to reduce symptoms. It may also help to maintain a generally healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, sleep and meals, as well as staying well hydrated and limiting your intake of caffeine and alcohol which can be a common trigger.

Hypnosis Migraine? Can this help?

Hypnosis Migraine can help migraine sufferers to manage the physiological responses associated with migraines and can induce a deep sense of relaxation and well-being. This helps counteract some of the major triggers of stress and anxiety.

Hypnosis can also act as an important, additional element of pain management. Focussing on the connection between your body and mind, hypnotherapy can help some people experiencing long-term pain.

As over time our mind can start linking how we feel mentally with how we feel physically – this causes our perception of how much pain we are actually experiencing, to feel even worse! By reducing our stress levels and changing our thought patterns around pain, we can begin to alter our perception of pain.

So if you are suffering from migraines or severe headaches why not consider hypnotherapy as a complementary intervention.
