Pain Gate Theory
Pain Gate Theory suggests that the nervous system has "gates" in the spinal cord that control the transmission of pain signals to the brain. A relaxed, positive state of mind can help close these gates, reducing the perception of pain.
Open Gates: Stress, anxiety, and negative emotions can open the gates, allowing more pain signals to reach the brain. Closed Gates: Relaxation, positive thoughts, and distraction can help close the gates, reducing pain signals.
Mind-Gut Connection
The mind-gut connection plays a crucial role in digestive health. The vagus nerve serves as a communication pathway between the brain and gut, and emotional triggers like stress can exacerbate digestive issues such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
Breaking the Cycle
Anxiety can worsen digestive symptoms, creating a vicious cycle. Solution focused hypnotherapy helps individuals identify and break this cycle by focusing on positive outcomes rather than symptoms. Regulating the Nervous System , Hypnotherapy activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and enhancing digestive function while counteracting stress responses that negatively affect digestion.
Weight Management
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is an evidence-based approach to weight management that focuses on long-term solutions rather than quick fixes. It helps individuals change habits, reduce stress, and regain control over their diet and lifestyle.
Challenges of Long-Term Weight Loss
Emotional factors such as anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem can lead to poor food choices, making it difficult to achieve lasting weight loss.
Relaxation and Calmness
Hypnotherapy induces a deep state of relaxation, allowing individuals to release tension, unwind, & achieve a sense of calmness that can counteract the effects of stress & anxiety.
Cognitive Restructuring
By accessing the subconscious mind, hypnotherapy can help individuals identify & re-frame negative thought patterns, replacing them with positive affirmations & adaptive beliefs that promote emotional well-being.
Coping Strategies
Hypnotherapy equips individuals with practical coping strategies to manage stress triggers, regulate emotional responses, & navigate anxiety-inducing situations with a sense of control & resilience.
Visualisation Techniques

Stress & Anxiety
Discover powerful techniques to reduce anxiety, manage stress & Improve sleep.
Think of stress as your body's way of gearing up for action when life throws challenges your way. It’s a normal response to perceived threats, activating your internal alarm system when you face something demanding. In these moments, your body releases hormones like cortisol and adrenaline to prepare you to respond quickly. While this reaction can be beneficial, too much of these hormones can negatively impact your health and wellbeing. It’s important to recognise that outside of those threatening situations, we need to find ways to reduce that stress.
When faced with stress, the sympathetic nervous system activates, leading to increased heart rate, heightened alertness, and the release of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline.
Anxiety, on the other hand, is a feeling of worry, nervousness, or fear about future events. While some anxiety is normal and can be beneficial (For example; motivating you to prepare for an exam), excessive anxiety can become debilitating and interfere with daily life.
Sympathetic Nervous System: Activates the "fight or flight" response during stressful situations.
︎ Parasympathetic Nervous System: Promotes the "rest and digest" response, helping the body to relax and conserve energy.
Hypnotherapy induces a state of deep relaxation, which activates the parasympathetic nervous system. This helps counteract the effects of stress and anxiety by promoting a sense of calm.
People can accumulate stress & negative emotions over time, which fill up their “stress bucket”. This metaphor is commonly used to explain how unresolved stressors and emotions can build up and impact a person's well-being. Through hypnotherapy & REM sleep, clients can address & release these accumulated stressors, allowing them to empty their "stress bucket" & achieve emotional relief and relaxation.
By using gentle suggestions & imagery, we help clients access their subconscious mind to explore thoughts, emotions, & beliefs. This process allows clients to uncover insights, gain new perspectives, & work towards positive changes & personal growth.
