THE SCIENCE: Here’s Proof Hypnotherapy Works!
We all experience fear, it is a natural human response. Like the cavemen, our mind is responding to a perceived danger. When fear takes over our lives it then becomes a problem. When fear recurs on a regular basis it becomes a phobia that can often manifest in the physical body such as; sweating, fast heartbeat, nausea, and more.
COVID-19 has now become a new fear and even the fear of getting Covid: a phobia. Even though taking precautions, some people are afraid to return to life as before affecting their ability to move forward in their lives with daily activities.
Hypnosis can teach the brain that it does not need to have panic attacks. Letting go of fear and even the trauma behind it is the goal of hypnosis for fears and phobias. Measurable qualities of fear include blood pressure, heart rate and may lower blood pressure by relaxing the mind and body into a relaxed and calm state.
