Experience of hypnotherapy

hello,

I just wondered if anyone had used hypnotherapy whilst going through IVF and did you find it helpful? A friend of mine has suggested it but I'm not sure what to expect and whether it's worth the extra money 😬.

I'm leaning towards giving it a go as it's not going to hurt but I'd be really interested to know others thoughts.

Thanks everyone xx

As you say it cannot cause any harm and may help reduce stress levels - positive mindset-and help you feel relaxed and more in control

If mentioning hypnotherapy providers by name please use PM as this site does not support advertising clinics of any kind

Take care

I would absolutely recommend hypnotherapy to get you into a relaxed state and able to deal the best with the inevitable onslaught of emotions that come with it!

I tried it on my last cycle & can say it’s absolutely no different to the ‘mindful IVF’ app so if I were you I’d just use that & save your money! It’s not hypnosis like you see on tv etc, more just a way of relaxing & speaking to the subconscious mind which you can do via meditation.
