What is Pain Management?

I you were to spend a moment thinking about a time when you were unfortunate to have an accident i.e. a trip or fall cut yourself while chopping vegetables sprain a muscle ect, what happens? You would probably feel an immediate pain which would then be followed by the longer lasting dull ache until it goes away.

So what is pain? Usually pain is one of the most common reasons why we go for medical treatment and can be very hard to define as it is what we call a Subjective Experience and as far as I am aware there is no machine that can measure the degree of pain a person is experiencing. The Web version of the Encyclopedia Britannica defines pain as –

Why Past Life?

Using hypnotherapy we can explore the controversial issue of past life therapy. This is yet another tool which can enable the therapist to gain answers to questions arising from issues and themes from people in this life time. It can give answers to questions about relationships and gain insight into the dynamics of relationships, why you feel a strong bond with certain people and why others leave you cold. 

For example as with any therapy it can be very difficult to actually get to the centre of a case, to find out what has caused someone to become anxious or trigger an anxiety state.
Under hypnosis it is possible to identify a disturbing event that occurred not in this life and work with that individual to resolve the issue.

This is a really exciting therapy which I am sure as you may or may not agree with depending on your views or what you are comfortable with can certainly have a profound effect on someone’s present life. After all to help and improve someone’s quality of life is what all practitioners of conventional and complementary medicine are trying to achieve.

The Holistic approach to health

For many years, the conventional approach to good health has focussed on the reduction or elimination of symptoms. Where possible, cause for symptoms will be found, and also treated. But chronic symptoms will be found and also treated. But chronic chronic symptoms, for which no cause comes to light, may linger for years, and bring about serious debilitation over time.

Why learn Autogenic Therapy with a therapist?

Some people say why do I have to learn autogenic therapy with a therapist, when I have seen it in books and articles in teach yourself form? AT is always put forward as a simple technique, and when taught and coached by a registered therapist it is. The problem with the written word is that is all you have, there is no guide or personal support - no one to help you with queries, or to give you reassurance or back-up when you are in doubt. You need a knowledgeable therapist who will monitor your practice and give you feedback on your progress. Although the technique itself is very easy, the response to training are endlessly varied and unique to you. 

What is Autogenic Therapy

If you imagine sitting in a chair or lying on a bed in a comfortable, symmetrical manner with your eyes closed, you will already have a picture of what someone practising an AT exercise looks like. The exercises are easily-learned silent formulae related to the body in a relaxed state. They begin with phrases suggesting heaviness and warmth in the limbs (standard exercises 1&2), followed by passive focussing on the heartbeat, breathing, abdominal warmth and cool forehead.  

What is past life regression?

In simple terms past life regression is just remembering. Stored in your subconscious mind are all the memories of all of your experiences, what it is like to be a small child or baby, what its like to be born. Regression is reaching into these memories to enable you to recapture the events of the past, not only this lifetime but also the memories of previous lifetimes.

At first these memories are dim and few but each event remembered sparks another memory and another until it becomes easy.
Some people like to compare it with a filing system that has become sluggish due to lack of use over a long period of time. But with a little care and attention here and there and putting the system on standby soon the system will be running and you will be retrieving the memories and information you request.

Hypnosis / Hypnotherapy Explained in Easy to Understand Language.

Hypnotherapy is a therapy using hypnosis not only to alleviate symptoms but also often to uncover the cause of the problem, which can be corrected thus ensuring a complete and permanent cure. Hypnosis is a deep state of relaxation from which your subconscious, the controller of all automatic processes and reactions can be contacted.

Understanding how the subconscious works and why it works the way it does we can through the use of various hypnotic techniques help you to make those changes you wish to make for your own benefit.

Some of the more frequently asked questions:-

• Can any one achieve hypnosis?

Most people may, providing (a) they wish to be hypnotized and (b) they understand the things they need to do in order to achieve the hypnotic state.

Preparation for child birth

By practising Hypnosis daily before the birth, you are effectively "rehearsing" or "experiencing" your perfect birth over and over again in your mnd, so that when the actual birth begins, your mind, so that when the actual birth begins, your body responds in the way you have rehearsed it (similar to techniques used by top athletes) and as nature intended. In addiction you are conditioning your body to be relaxed and calm no matter what is going on around you.

Therefore, your response during the birth is to remain relaxed, involved and in control,being conversant and aware of the experience. Being so relaxed leaves no room for the fear and tension, which are the main causes of pain. This calm state increases your natural pain killers (endorphins) and your blood flow, make contractions more effective and so often reduces the need for intervention and the length of labour.
