Hypnosis helps reduce menopause hot flashes.
Are hot flashes and night sweats bringing you down? Tired of sweaty sleepless nights? Hypnosis can help reduce the frequency and intensity of menopause related hot flashes!
Welcome To The Menopause Club!
Benjamin Franklin once said "...nothing is certain except death and taxes." Clearly Benny didn't know too much about women! Menopause is a 100% certainty for every single woman when she reaches a certain age. Typically, natural menopause occurs between the ages of 45-55 years of age. With 51 being the statistical number. Menopause can also occur due to various disorders and surgeries. We ALL get to join this Club (whether we like it or not).
Regardless of HOW we get there, we're most likely going to experience symptoms to SOME degree. Symptoms can last from 8-10 years, often starting in perimenopause before we even know our hormones are changes!
Most Common Menopause Symptoms
Hot flashes are the most commonly reported symptom during all menopausal stages.
The average amount was about 12-15 pounds, usually located around the mid-section due to hormonal changes.
Night sweats are Hot Flashes that occur during sleep. These are the most common cause of sleep disturbances.
As we know, hormone changes affect our mood. This gets amplified when you combine this with sleepless nights.
Add insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, reduced libido, and forgetfulness into the mix and we've potentially got 8-10 years of less than optimum feelings!
How Can Hypnosis Help Menopause?
Before I can explain that it's best to show you the difference between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind.
The Iceberg Analogy
The Iceberg Analogy shows the different roles that your conscious & subconscious mind have. What's important to notice here is that the Subconscious Mind is in charge of all the bodily functions. It is also the keeper of your values and beliefs.
With the use of Hypnosis, we have a more direct connection to the Subconscious Mind and can work on releasing limiting beliefs and/or values. We can also, through the use of metaphoric imagery, direct the Subconscious Mind to reduce the frequency and intensity of menopause related Hot Flashes.
A Randomised Control Study of post-menopausal women found that the participants who received Hypnosis Treatment plans saw a 74% reduction in frequency and an 80% reduction in intensity of hot flashes. (This was compared to compared to only 17% and 15% in the control group.) The majority of the Hypnosis participants also noted a substantial improvement in their sleep quality as well!
The Root Cause Of Them All!
- Hot Flashes
- Night Sweats
- Insomnia
- Anxiety
- Mood Swings
- Weight Gain
- Reduced Libido
Interestingly, most of the symptoms that go along with menopause can be attributed to the Hot Flashes. Hot flashes cause Night Sweats, which then cause Insomnia.
And as we know, insomnia then contributes to a whole host of other challenges. Fatigue, Anxiety, Mood Swings, etc etc.
When the hot flashes get sorted out, the other issues typically then get sorted out too!
