As well as treating expectant mothers with hypnosis and EFT for greater comfort during pregnancy and delivery, so we can help to get women pregnant in the first place! That feels like a strange thing to say, being a woman (!) but by using these combined treatments we can achieve this!

This kind of infertility has no organic basis and is psychological in nature. If there seems to be no apparent reason for the infertility, both prospective parents will have been medically examined for any physical abnormalities, given the all clear, but still no conception occurs.

Often the couple are told to relax and keep practising and let nature takes its course, however, that is usually the last thing the couple can do and they can find that they become obsessive about having a baby. This is often an extremely stressful and upsetting time for the couple involved. Usually, after years of trying and exhausting all other avenues, a couple may migrate towards alternative treatments in a last, desperate bid to have a child.

Often this can be intense work for all involved, therapist and clients alike. It may result that one or both of the couple is harbouring a reason, usually unconsciously, (they are not directly aware of it) as to why they can't or won't or shouldn't have a baby. This will usually involve seeing both of the people involved as both of the partners need to address the problem. Some couples wish to do that together and some apart. We'll take a thorough case history as well as detailed information about the relationship, which is a highly important, relevant factor here.

I will use EFT to attempt to uncover the root cause of the infertility, as tapping on fears and concerns often gives rise to the underlying, core factor impeding pregnancy. During trance I’ll use suggestion therapy and future pacing work so that the couple see themselves pregnant and later with their child. All of this scenario building will be very positive and personal to the couple and aims to create an image for the couple and a belief in their right to have a child and their ability to be good parents.

There are no time limits to this kind of therapy, conception can happen very quickly or take longer, but it is definitely one of the most fulfilling uses of hypnosis and EFT for all involved.
