Treating Anxiety and Panic Attacks with Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy at the Ruislip Hypnotherapy Clinic
Stress - how it affects us...
Stress is everywhere in our society now and can result in problems such as migraines, back/neck problems, stomach and digestion problems, or feeling tearful or unable to cope with life. Sometimes stress and anxiety are caused by circumstances in your life at the present time; sometimes they are caused by problems from the past; often it's a mixture of the two - problems from the past affecting how you respond to situations in your present life.
If you have been feeling very stressed over a long period of time over something for no apparent reason then you are probably suffering from anxiety. This is often referred to as suffering from within by something that is outside of your control. Hypnotherapy can also help with positive thinking and assertiveness, helping you to feel better about your ability to cope.
 Prior to therapy I felt bouts of sadness for no apparent reason. I thought I constantly had PMT and it was the norm. Things came to a head when I started to feel overly anxious driving on the motorway.
This came out of nowhere. Having now completed therapy I generally feel content and small things that may have bothered me previously do not faze me now. I also feel less anger and a general sense of wellbeing. After 15 years of grinding my jaw and getting daily headaches this has improved by about 90% which is amazing as I had tried various techniques prior to therapy.

Panic attacks
If you've suffered a panic attack, you'll understand the terror and anxiety they cause. They're very common and symptoms include palpitations, shortness of breath - hyperventilating, sweating and feelings of loss of control. Every symptom you experience during an attack is a natural, harmless part of your body's fight-or-flight reaction - but can very frightening at the time as you feel so out of control.
Panic symptoms are the direct result of the hormone adrenaline which is released when you perceive that you are in danger. With the release of adrenaline, your blood pressure increases and breathing speeds up preparing you for muscular effort. Your legs may shake as they are prepared for running; your hands may shake as the large muscles of your arms are prepared to fight. Although the feelings you experience are very unpleasant, they will do you no harm. You will not die, lose control or have a heart attack.
Since the last session i can honestly say it feels like a large weight has been lifted and i have been feeling much more confident and happy. My moods, which have been up and down in the past few weeks, have been on an even optimistic keel...my entire outlook seems to be shifting. For the first time in a long while my first thought isn't 'i can't do that' or to feel terrified at doing something outside my small comfort zone. Which is a huge difference. Thank you very much for all of your help

Your anxiety can be managed as long as your thoughts about particular situations are realistic and accurate. But if you overestimate the danger and these feelings are fueled by catastrophic thoughts, your anxiety will increase dramatically. Once a panic attack has happened in a situation, the mind can quickly learn to fear the situation itself. You begin to 'fear the fear' itself. The panic response can be 'conditioned' to be triggered by the situation or environment.
The good news is that many people have recovered from panic attacks with the help of hypnotherapy, and you can too.
I offer you two types of treatment for the control and elimination of anxiety and panic attacks: Suggestion therapy and Hypnoanalysis. Join me for a free consultation and we will discuss which will be the most relevant and effective treatment for you:
Hypnotherapy treatment for Anxiety and Panic Attacks:
Hypnoanalysis
Analytical hypnotherapy can be used to discover and remove the root cause of the symptoms in a gentle and quick way.
Panic attacks can occur when we experience an overload of conscious stress (stresses happening in our daily lives) and unconscious stress - an inner anxiety caused by the sufferer bottling up some strong emotions in their lives. The emotions remain in their subconscious, and continue to cause anxiety in the sufferer.
Over a period of about 8-10 sessions, we slowly link thoughts and memories back through time (using a process of 'free association') until we come to the bottled up emotions. When we release these emotions, this leads to a permanent and significant decrease in anxiety-related symptoms.

Suggestion Therapy
For more of a 'quick fix' solution to reducing stress, I use suggestion therapy. Results are usually effective immediately, and hence only one or sometimes two sessions would be required - with perhaps a booster at a later date. Suggestion therapy is recommended for those who do not regularly suffer from a great deal of stress, but may be going through a particularly stressful time in their lives.
