Hypnosis for fertility has been shown to increase conception by 30% and

double the rate of success of IVF treatment. 

It is a powerful tool for raising and eliminating emotional issues, fears or stresses which have the power of preventing conception.  Hypnotherapy is a safe and powerful way to increase the possibility of a successful pregnancy, used either as an individual therapy or in conjunction with other complementary therapies such as acupuncture or reflexology.

Delayed conception causes one in six couples to seek treatment

There are legions of experts offering advice about the physical aspects of conception, pregnancy and infertility, but the emotional issues faced by couples are seldom given top priority.

If you are dealing with fertility, miscarriage or are embarking on a programme of assisted conception, you may be experiencing feelings of isolation, anger, depression or anxiety.  You may fear you are becoming obsessed with getting pregnant or wonder whether you will be able to cope if another month goes by without conception taking place.

Recent studies show that, although conception is a miracle which cannot be demanded, the connection between mind and body can be utilised to help couples achieve optimum possibility.  The use of clinical hypnosis and cognitive behavioural therapy together provide a strong framework for positive change.
