IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) Gut Directed Hypnotherapy

What is The Irritable Bowel Syndrome?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition that affects the large intestine and causes symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea. While there is no known cure for IBS, gut-directed hypnotherapy has been found to be a highly effective treatment option for managing the condition.

What is gut-directed hypnotherapy? Gut-directed hypnotherapy was a term coined in the 1980’s by Professor Peter Whorwell a U.K gastroenterologist and Clinical Hypnotherapy advocate. At Hypnotherapist in Melbourne one of our therapists will guide you into a relaxed state and then use specific suggestions to help manage the physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of IBS

Many studies done over the past 30 years have found that gut-directed Hypnotherapy is highly effective and leads to significant improvement in 70% of people with IBS and is just as effective as a low FODMAP diet. In addition, the benefits of gut-directed hypnotherapy can be long-lasting, with many patients experiencing a significant reduction in symptoms for years after the treatment.
