Skin Disorders

How Hypnotherapy can help with skin disorders

Skin problems can be upsetting even when they have existed for only a short time, but where they are long term they can cause limitations to various aspects of your life.  

Protracted periods of living with skin problems can affect self esteem and cause stress and anxiety. Unfortunately, the irony is that often stress and anxiety can exacerbate the skin problem.

The skin is the largest organ in the body and is often a good indicator of a person’s health. Long periods of biological stress; poor eating habits; smoking, drinking, certain medications and recreational substances can all show quite quickly on your skin. Conditions such as psoraisis, dermatitis, eczema and even alopecia can sometimes be the result of or be affected by lifestyle choices.,

 Emotional lows take their toll on the body and can reduce the effectiveness of our immune system.  Around menstrual cycles a woman’s skin seems to have a mind of its own.

How can Hypnotherapy help with skin disorders?

A holistic view of your lifestyle will be taken. You may have already taken advice regarding the effects of certain foods; cosmetics or toiletries, therefore we will focus on helping you maintain equilibrium in your emotional health in order to reduce lows and create a balance in your overall well being and the functioning of your skin.  Regular relaxation can have a significantly positive impact on problem skin by helping to improve quality of sleep. Hypnotherapy can be extremely effective in reducing the severity and even eliminating stress related skin disorders in many cases.

NOTE:  Hypnotherapy is a complementary therapy and can assist in creating a positive and healthy mindset which may be effective in helping a skin disorder. It is not a substitute for medical advice and your first port of call should be to speak with your GP.
