CHILDREN
Children are good hypnotic subjects as they have active imaginations. Hypnosis has been used with a tremendous diversity of childhood problems such as:
- Problems with studying and concertration
- Fears
- Phobias
- Sleep disorders
- Bedwetting
- Stuttering
- Hair pulling
- Nailbiting
- Selective eating
- Anorexia and bulimia
For many medical and emotional problems, previous treatlment might have included drugs (which may have produced unpleasant side effects). Parents and children are relieved to realise that this is not the case with hypnotherapy. Participation in the simple, rhythmic and soothing features of hypnotherapy is similar to natural parenting behaviour. The results of treatment usually appear quickly and are obvious, thus allowing even young children to see its value.
