Hypnosis in children

Due to their high level of imagination, children are more susceptible to hypnosis than adults.

Medical hypnosis in children and adolescents

Medical hypnosis for children and adolescents has been booming in the world in recent years.

Child hypnotherapy can be a very effective method in the treatment of various children's problems, negative repetitive patterns or various disorders.

This method, which was initially intended for adults, has also proven to be very good for children due to the good neuroplasticity of children's brains. Therefore, with the help of medical hypnosis, children develop healthier behavioral, emotional and physical patterns more quickly.

The method has no adverse side effects, the technique is adapted to the age of the child.

It is suitable for children who want to get rid of "anxieties" such as: problems with passing urine and feces, bedwetting, anxiety, tics, phobias, nail biting, psychosomatic illnesses and as an auxiliary method for eating disorders. Medical hypnosis works very well in boosting self-confidence, concentration and anger management.

With the help of medical hypnosis in children, we encourage natural learning of how to deal with a problem, master it and possibly overcome it.

Hypnosis is successfully used for:

  • helping children with anxiety
  • improving self-esteem in adolescents
  • overcoming phobias in adolescents
  • overcoming school stress in children
  • better anger management in children
  • helping children with specific learning difficulties
  • helping children with attention disorders (e.g. ADHD)
  • improving parent-child relationships
  • helping children with sleep problems

More and more people are finding out how successful it is.

dr. Pamela Kaiser co-founder and co-director of the National Institute for Pediatric Medical Hypnosis notes that the use of medical hypnosis among children and adolescents is becoming more and more popular, as more and more people find out how successful it is.

More and more parents want their children to be treated with medical hypnosis, and they also want more health insurance to cover it. However, it is already a success that it is considered as a complementary branch of medicine and is not excluded from pediatrics. This means that someone does not need a pediatrician's 'permission' to undergo medical hypnosis.

Hypnosis is particularly effective in relieving pain in children and adolescents.

If a child is in severe pain, medical hypnosis is a proven and researched very important therapy for reducing pain in medical conditions such as migraines, abdominal pain or burns, when doctors usually prescribe painkillers, and with hypnosis we redirect the pain from the brain.

Burns, for example, are very painful. We help a child with burns by teaching him how to leave his body and pain in place and, using a special technique, direct his thoughts to where he prefers, where he feels safe and happy.

When the child realizes that he has managed to control his pain, he is overjoyed! We also teach them a special technique to rate their pain from 0 to 10 and then mentally lower the level of real pain, which actually decreases.

Children love hypnosis and love to come back

The fact is that children and adolescents have a vivid imagination, quickly access their subconscious and learn quickly. They easily access that part of themselves that facilitates changes that will benefit them in the present or in the years to come as they face new challenges. All they need is a desire to change.

As a rule, children are very susceptible to hypnosis, also due to curiosity and a pleasant feeling of relaxation or the absence of any problem that is eliminated by the hypnotic state itself. Hypnosis is a completely natural and safe form of help, and each session is tailored to the child according to their age, challenge and personality characteristics. Parents are only expected to support the process of change and not to pressure the child in any way.

"Each of us is capable of learning how to break this connection between the brain and the body that communicates pain to it. We can learn how to use our imagination to force the brain to ignore pain, or to recall it from our consciousness. This means that something can hurt us, but we don't necessarily have to suffer because of it."

What hypnosis is and what is not.

Medical hypnosis is not about any magic tricks, but about a special state of consciousness with focused attention. External awareness decreases or moves away from reality, and the suggestibility for a certain problem increases, explained Dr. Jeff, as his young patients like to call him.

"With medical hypnosis, we know how to get a person into such a state of consciousness that he mentally concentrates and is able to do what he previously thought he could not do in this state. Someone who trains to swim needs a coach to swim better, and we use various techniques to teach our children that they no longer pee in the bed, that they no longer have headaches, tics, warts, that they no longer have stomachaches..."
