Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with
If you have been diagnosed or suspect you may have one of the medical conditions starred above, you should consult your GP for advice, diagnosis and treatment and always inform your health professional before starting any alternative or additional therapies or treatments.
Other areas of hypnotherapy I deal with
Physical pain is often associated with stress e.g. headaches, neck and shoulder pain, back pain and jaw pain. Jaw pain is caused by the clenching and grinding of teeth, which is a common presentation of stress. Releasing the face, jaw (TMJ), neck, chest and shoulders using physical therapy literally drains the body of tension. I then consolidate this release by giving you strategies to help reduce stress e.g. time management tips, stretches etc and if required, use hypnotherapy to get to deeper issues.
Testimonials
''After feeling stressed and tense about events in life e.g finance, family and a house move, I found Diksha’s combination treatment to be a God send! The physical therapy helped to release tension in the body whilst the hypnotherapy helped to reduce my stress, after which I could focus my mind back to day to day tasks: I could cope again…''

Diksha very patiently tried to get to the route of the problem, which we found to be Stress in its various guises, and working together I have now got to a place where incredibly, only very occasionally do I get headaches.
