Hypnotherapy for Skin Conditions & Stress

Hypnotherapy can help alleviate numerous skin conditions associated with stress and anxiety. One of the major causes of skin disorders like eczema is due to uncontrolled stress. If you are unable to mange your stress, this could also lead to unhealthy eating habits, disrupted sleep, and a lack of self-care. All of which, can create an add-on effect and worsen your skin conditions,

The stress response can be both beneficial but also detrimental, depending on the circumstances. It can help by preparing your flight or fight response, giving you the adrenaline boost you need to increase performance, protect yourself and be more focus.

However, if you’re constantly stressed, it can contribute to both physical and emotional issues. Without support or coping strategies, the stress response can overreact in your body. Leading to psychological distress like anxiety, depression and self-esteem issues. This could follow on and cultivate issues in the regulation of your skin and impair its healthy functions.

In the context of the skin, when the stress response is overreacting, it produces the stress hormone cortisol into your body. Cortisol functions to increase oil and sebum in the skin, which clogs up the pores, leading to breakouts on the skin. Additionally, it impairs your resistance to infection, wound healing, and increased internal inflammation.

The internal inflammation, relates to the gut-brain microbiota. Stress is also known to disrupt the connection between the gut and brain and lead to inflammation. The internal inflammation associated with the gut and brain could then manifest to skin disorders like psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and more.

With hypnosis, it can help manage your stress and helping you create a more balanced and peaceful lifestyle. By decreasing your stress levels, it can create a better foundation for your skin to recover and heal.
