Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

IBS is a common complaint which 1 in 5 people in the UK suffer at some point in their life.  Anyone can suffer from it, although it most commonly begins in the teenage and early adult years and is twice as likely in women than men.  For many sufferers it has a profound impact on their daily lives.   

The symptoms can be variable and include:

•   intermittent abdominal pain  (colic/spasms)  •   bloating     •    urgency to go to the toilet (especially in the morning)    •   feeling that bowels have not completely emptied after going to the toilet    •   constipation or diarrhoea (or switching between both)    •   nausea    •   tiredness    •   backache    •  poor appetite    •   belching    •   heartburn.

The IBS Treatment Programme

I offer a treatment programme for IBS consisting of 6 session over a period of 12 twelve weeks.  To find out more, click here.

NOTE: It is important that you have received a medical diagnosis of Irritable Bowel Syndrome before receiving hypnotherapy for IBS management.  This is because it is vital that there is no risk that your symptoms are the result of an undiagnosed medical condition which requires clinical investigation.

  Therefore, I do not offer the IBS treatment programmes to anyone suffering symptoms for which no medical diagnosis has yet been received.
