In Australia, approximately 1 in 5 Australians experience IBS. It is a common intestinal disorder causing abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhoea and constipation. The main cause of IBS is not well known but can be caused by numerous factors:
Mood disorders: depression, anxiety
Bacterial infections
Food intolerance (coeliac disease)
Epigenetics
Although it is not a life threatening disease, it can cause major disruption in life. The current medical treatments available are FODMAP diets, medication, and psychological therapies including cognitive behavioural therapy and hypnosis techniques. Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of hypnotherapy for IBS as an effective treatment, with a high percentage of positive outcomes for most patients.
Is hypnosis right for your digestive tract & IBS symptoms?
Ideally, you would have consulted with a GP to determine if you have been diagnosed with IBS before seeking psychological treatments like gut-directed hypnosis. Keep in mind, individual symptoms as well as psychological symptoms will vary from person to person. Here are some questions to consider if clinical hypnosis treatment is right for you.
Are you being affected by functional abdominal pain and cramping?
Are your sleep patterns disrupting your quality of life?
Are the bloating symptoms causing you discomfort?
Does mobility become an issue for you?
Does constipation or bowel movements make you feel anxious and stressed?
Are your bowel habits causing you disruptions at or during social events?
Are you experiencing symptoms of brain fog?
Have you tried other conventional treatments but the IBS-like symptoms are still not going away?
How gut directed hypnosis works for IBS sufferers
The understanding behind IBS is that it is a disconnection between the stomach, gut microbiota and the central nervous system. Also known as the brain-gut axis. Studies suggest that stressful situations and anxiety causes a dysfunction to brain-gut axis which can impair gastrointestinal function from altered immune function, gut microbiota and nervous system processing. Ultimately leading to gastrointestinal disorders and abdominal discomfort.
Therefore, gut-directed hypnotherapy can work for IBS by assessing the underlying issues emotions in the subconscious mind. By placing you under a deeply relaxed hypnotic state, this practice will help promote stress reduction and provide the therapist with access to the subconscious mind. This will allow us to safely unveil the cause of the emotional distress and how it led to the development of your IBS and its symptoms.
The subconscious is a very powerful part of your consciousness. It processes 90% of your involuntary actions compared to the conscious mind that is responsible for rationalising and logical thinking. The subconscious stores your beliefs, values, memories and past experiences. It also holds all experiences including those that have been hidden from traumatic experiences and purposely forgotten.
Through these memories and experiences holds and forms the essence of your beliefs and behaviours. Essentially, this is where the biggest fears, limiting beliefs and greatest potential lie.
By treating depression and the anxiety at the subconscious level, we are observing the source of the issues that are causing the IBS symptoms.
This offers a chance to release the anxious feelings, negative thoughts, and experiences. And change the negative emotions into a more positive state of mind and being. This in turn can allow your mind and body to reconnect and create coherence and harmony between the gut-brain axis. And with hypnotic suggestions, help control and normalise gastrointestinal function, while alleviating the psychological and physical symptoms of IBS.
The beneficial effects of gut-directed hypnosis can vary from one person to another. But based on randomised controlled trials, researchers have shown that 70% of IBS sufferers demonstrated evidence showing an improvement in symptoms. Here are some benefits to consider:
Feel more in control over your body
Reduced uncomfortable bloating and abdominal pain
Feel free to attend social events without worries and concerns
Gain a better understanding between the mind and gut
Gain more insight about how a balanced nutritional diet is important
Feel more comfortable with gut health and less worried about other conditions that may be affecting self
