Control chronic pain
Don't let it control,
Live the life you want
While pain from traumas and injurious events dissipate over time, chronic pain differs. With chronic pain, your body continues to transmit pain signals to your brain beyond 12 weeks, after typical injuries have healed.
Despite medical interventions, as many as one in three people report experiencing chronic pain.
At Livewell, Annemieke offers clients a holistic 1:1 personalised pain management program that focuses getting you back to do the activities you enjoy and feeling comfortable.
Overcome chronic pain
Get back to being active
Chronic pain can manifest as sharp or dull sensations, resulting in burning or aching feelings in affected areas. It may persist steadily or occur intermittently, without any discernible cause. This type of pain can arise in almost any part of the body and may vary in sensation across different affected regions.
- Those who experience chronic pain often refrain from exercising, socialising, pursuing hobbies, and may face work-related challenges. This can negatively impact one’s mental well-being, relationships, and self-confidence.
Livewell Hypnotherapy provides a comprehensive one-on-one personalized pain management program. Annemieke’s approach aims to alleviate tension-induced pain, foster optimism, and empower individuals to overcome their chronic pain and get back to living their life.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about
Hypnotherapy for Pain Management
How does hypnotherapy help manage pain?
Hypnotherapy taps into the power of your mind to shift focus away from discomfort and towards:
- Deep relaxation: By calming your body and nervous system, hypnosis reduces stress, anxiety, and fear, which can amplify pain.
- Reduced pain sensations: Hypnotherapy can help modulate your perception of pain, making it feel less intense or disruptive.
- Mitigating negative emotions: By addressing negative thoughts and emotions associated with pain, hypnotherapy can lessen their impact and improve overall well-being.
- Enhancing positive factors: Through hypnosis, you can learn self-management tools and techniques to improve sleep, nutrition, and other aspects of your life that contribute to pain reduction.
How many sessions will I need?
Individual needs vary, but typically, pain management requires up to 10 sessions. Some may benefit from ongoing sessions for continued support.
Can it help with all types of pain?
Hypnotherapy can be beneficial for both acute and chronic pain, including:
- Pain recovery from surgery or burns
- Managing side effects of cancer treatment
- Reducing discomfort during medical procedures
Will I be asleep during hypnosis?
No, hypnosis is not unconsciousness or sleep. You’ll remain aware and in control, though deeply relaxed and focused. Most people remember all or most of the suggestions given during the session.
Are there any side effects?
Hypnotherapy for pain management is generally safe. However, rare side effects can include anxiety, headaches, dizziness, or drowsiness. It’s crucial to disclose any serious mental health conditions like hallucinations, delusions, or substance abuse disorders as hypnosis may not be suitable in those cases.
Can it replace my current pain management?
Individual experiences and preferences vary. Some may reduce or eliminate medication reliance, while others choose to combine hypnotherapy with their existing plan. Holistic therapies like physiotherapy, massage, or acupuncture can also complement your hypnotherapy journey.
What qualifications do your hypnotherapists have?
Our hypnotherapists have comprehensive training in pain management, with some specializing through additional courses or extensive research. Not all hypnotherapists offer pain management services, so inquire about their specific expertise.
What happens during my first session?
Each hypnotherapist has their approach, but typically, the first session will involve:
- Understanding your situation: The therapist will discuss your medical history, pain experience, and goals for treatment.
- Program customization: Based on your needs, a personalized program will be created.
- Initial hypnosis experience: You’ll experience a relaxing meditation focused on promoting calmness and optimism.
- Recommendations and scheduling: The therapist will recommend practices for outside the session and schedule your next appointment.
