The use of
hypnosis in Fertility.
In Britain we tend to think of infertility exclusively as a
medical problem, however we all know people who tried
desperately for years to conceive and then the minute they
gave up and stopped trying ... guess what happens!
According to recent studies- "infertile" women who use
hypnotherapy techniques have a 42-55% conception rate as
compared to 20% for those not following this protocol.
A 1992 study found that women who participated in
hypnotherapy therapy experienced a 34% conception rate as
compared to 20% with Invitro Fertilisation alone. Decreased
levels of depression, anxiety and anger were also noted.

I work with a proven program developed by a leading
American hypnotherapist Lynsi Eastburn. The program
consists of a minimum of 4 sessions with an average of
about 6 it can be used alone or along side medical
fertility treatment to greatly increase the chances of
success.
When it is used with IVF it ideally starts a month or so
before IVF commences. It often occurs that a couple that
are booked in for IVF will fall pregnant before the
treatment actually occurs!
Those wishing to conceive naturally are looking at a small
fraction of the cost of IVF and they learn a skill that
will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Not only
will they increase the chances of conception with
hypnotherapy, but they will reap the fringe benefits
including stress reduction and relaxation skills.
Far too many women are being diagnosed with "Unexplained
Infertility." Characterized by a lack of measurable,
physical reasons for being unable to conceive, this
catch-all diagnosis may do more harm than good, by
increasing a patient's stress levels. Read an article by
Lynsi Eastburn on the phenomenon of Unexplained
Infertility, on the [old] Eastburn Hypnotherapy Center
website.
The Fertility
Program
The HypnoFertility program helps you release conscious and
unconscious blocks which may be preventing conception.
Therapy sessions are tailored for each client, based on
their individual needs. The initial interview helps to
identify areas that can be changed, and a care plan is
established based on identified factors. Hypnotherapy
techniques can reduce stress, and instill a sense of
confidence and hope. In turn, this will help you to
maximise chances of conceiving naturally and/or increase
the success of medical assistance.
1. Identify and remove conscious and unconscious blocks
which may be preventing conception.
2. Gain a positive outlook, and renew trust in your body’s
ability to conceive.
3. Remain calm, patient, and in control throughout natural
or assisted conception.
4. Prepare your body physically and emotionally to be a
good and loving parent.
5. Have assistance with any lifestyle changes that may be
necessary to help couples conceive. This may include;
weight loss and diet improvement, stopping smoking.
