Understanding IBS and Its Causes
IBS can be a frustrating condition, often diagnosed when no physical abnormalities are found. Common causes include:
- Childhood trauma
- Stressful life events
- Viral gastroenteritis
- Bacterial overgrowth in the gut
- Hormonal changes post-pregnancy
- Post-infection or post-surgery complications
While traditionally regarded as incurable, IBS symptoms can be managed effectively through various approaches. Scientists now believe that the gut and mind are interconnected, and managing stress and mental health can significantly impact gut health.
How Do We Help People?
At The Road Hypnotherapy & Health Services, we offer a comprehensive approach to managing IBS through hypnotherapy and strategic psychotherapy. Our services are tailored to each individual, helping you navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity.
Hypnotherapy for IBS
Hypnotherapy has been used to treat IBS for over 40 years, showing positive results for around 80% of those who try it. It works by addressing the mental triggers that cause symptoms, rather than just the symptoms themselves.
Basic Tips for Managing IBS
While hypnotherapy can be highly effective, there are also basic lifestyle tips that can help manage IBS:
- Stay Hydrated: Drink at least 8 cups of fluid per day, especially water.
- Limit Caffeine: Restrict tea and coffee to 3 cups per day.
- Reduce Alcohol and Fizzy Drinks: Both can irritate the digestive system.
- Modify Fiber Intake: Consider limiting high-fiber foods and increasing soluble fiber intake from sources like oats.
- Manage Fat Intake: Avoid foods high in fat which can aggravate symptoms.
Lifestyle and IBS Management
Other factors that can help include:
- Sleep Hygiene: Poor sleep can worsen IBS symptoms. Improving sleep hygiene can help.
- Exercise: Activities like yoga, walking, and swimming can reduce stress and help manage symptoms.
- Self-Care: Prioritizing self-care can improve self-worth and reduce IBS flare-ups.
FODMAPs vs. Hypnosis
The FODMAP diet, developed by Monash University, is a common dietary approach to managing IBS. However, it can sometimes cause food anxiety. Studies have shown that hypnotherapy can reduce IBS symptoms by 70%, highlighting its effectiveness as a complementary or alternative treatment to dietary changes.
