Hypnotherapy provides gentle complementary support for people living with life-limiting illness, as well as their families and carers. It works alongside medical care to enhance comfort, calm and overall wellbeing.

Hypnotherapy in palliative care can help to:

• Reduce pain perception and physical tension

• Ease anxiety, fear and emotional distress

• Improve relaxation and sleep

• Support a sense of calm and control

• Help carers manage stress and fatigue

By guiding the mind and body into a deeply relaxed state, hypnotherapy can reduce stress responses that intensify discomfort. Sessions are always gentle, flexible and tailored to the individual’s needs, energy levels and preferences.

Hypnotherapy is not a replacement for medical treatment, but it can be a valuable adjunct in supporting quality of life.
