IBS Treatment Programme
Irritable Bowel Syndrome is a debilitating condition that affects 10-15% of the adult population in Western Europe. It is more prevalent in women than men (2 to 1) and can occur at any age. It has a range of symptoms and depending on their severity and it can have a dramatic impact on the quality of life of those who suffer from it.
Because it can cause incontinence and flatulence, as well as debilitating pain and discomfort, IBS can interfere with a person’s ability to manage their life on a day to day basis. It can begin to eat away at their confidence in themselves and their ability to control their body.
Although there are many different medications available on the market, most will only deal with specific symptoms and even then they will not work for all people. However hypnotherapy has been shown, in numerous studies to help all symptoms of IBS and reduce them by as a much as 70%.
In one study, conducted by Professor Peter Whorwell, Professor of Medicine and Gastroenterology at the Manchester Royal Infirmary, 250 patients were followed over 2 years, using hypnotherapy as their primary treatment. The patients in this study “showed a dramatic improvement in all aspects of their symptoms”. Because of this study and others like it, hypnotherapy is now recognised by the British Medical Association as one of the most effective ways to treat the symptoms of IBS.
The treatment programme lasts for up to six sessions over a period of six weeks. In between sessions you are given a CD to listen to which reinforces the hypnotic suggestions and help with relaxation.
