Using Hypnosis for Asthma
Try this gentle, permissive hypnosis session to ease your asthma symptoms
Research shows that negative emotions such as panic and depression can affect the respiratory system, in effect bringing on an asthma episode in people with the condition.
Anyone who has suffered a severe asthma attack knows that stress and anxiety escalate quickly and make the attack even worse than it might have been.
How hypnosis can help
Hypnosis treatment can lower stress (1), a common trigger of asthma, but also we know that the power of the mind can directly influence physical processes.
Hypnosis can improve immune function and anaesthetize pain and directly and beneficially effect the workings of the body. (2) Relaxation training has also been to shown to have beneficial outcomes for asthma sufferers. (3)

(2) Ernest Hilgard (1977) and coworkers: in extensive investigations, using experimental paradigms to induce pain (typically either a tourniquet cutting off the circulation to a limb or plunging the limb into cold water), they have demonstrated that various types of pain can be reduced by Hypnotically induced analgesia.
(3) Maher-Loughnan (1970) asthmatic subjects were randomly assigned to either Hypnosis or relaxation therapy. The results showed both treatment modalities of benefit to the patients, but the improvement in the Hypnotherapy group was significantly greater. There was a peak of improvement between the seventh and twelfth weeks of treatment. In addition, only the Hypnotic subjects showed improvement in physiologic measures of respiration (forced expiratory volume).
N.B. We recommend that you speak to a medical professional if you do suffer from asthma, before commencing any hypnosis-based treatment.
