Headaches & Migraines

Headaches are common and can vary from mild discomfort to severe pain that disrupts daily life. Migraines are more severe, often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light. Headaches and migraines can be triggered by a mix of physical and environmental factors. Tension headaches often result from muscle strain in the head, neck, and shoulders, typically caused by stress or poor posture, especially from prolonged sitting at a desk. Migraines have various triggers, such as hormonal changes, certain foods (like caffeine and alcohol), sensory overload, and genetics. For women, hormonal fluctuations related to menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause are common triggers.


Solution Focused Hypnotherapy offers an effective approach to managing headaches and migraines by addressing triggers like stress and anxiety. It will help guide you into a relaxed state, making you more receptive to positive suggestions, relaxation, and visualisation techniques. This can reduce the intensity and frequency of headaches. For those with chronic pain, hypnotherapy can also address the emotional and psychological impact by altering negative thought patterns. Additionally, it promotes better sleep, which can further reduce headache frequency and help you regain control of your life.
