Hypnosis can help Raynauds Disease
WIth Raynaud's disease not only do you get the physical
symptoms such as numbness and pain in the fingers and toes (and even sometimes the ears
and nose) but you also have to suffer the emotional fallout of terrifying changes in sensation and skin color brought on by Raynaud's disease.
What causes Raynaud's disease?
Raynaud's can be brought on by cold air or touching a cold object. Stress and anxiety
may also being about a Raynaud's episode. Which is why hypnotic relaxation can help.
Occasionally Raynaud's disease may be classified as 'Secondary Raynaud's' which means
that it may be a symptom of some other disorder so you need to be medically checked
out just to be sure.
What is Raynaud's disease and how will hypnosis help?
Raynaud's disease is a circulatory disorder. During a Raynaud's 'attack' blood vessels
narrow (constrict) reducing blood supply to the affected areas-usually the fingers and
toes.
Color changes also typically occur. So the area may become pale as blood supply
reduces, followed by blue as oxygen supply is cut off eventually followed by bright
red as the blood returns to the area. Of course someone can have a Raynaud's episode
without all or any of these obvious skin color changes but Raynaud's can be very
disturbing; even terrifying for some.
Hypnosis has been shown to be highly effective in changing, increasing and decreasing
blood flow in Raynaud's disease (1) Hypnosis is famed for it's ability to cure warts and this seems to be
partly achieved by diverting blood from 'feeding' the wart so that it eventually drops
off.
Hypnosis can also be used for encouraging healthy blood flow into the hands for
example and of course the feet. So use hypnosis for Raynaud's and let us know of
your success (2)
