Facing surgery can stir up fear, worst-case thinking and sleepless nights.
Hypnosis is well-studied as a way to reduce pre-operative anxiety, support pain control and improve recovery experiences – always as a complement to your surgical and anaesthetic care.
We help you walk into theatre as calm and prepared as possible, and support you on the other side.
Concerned about upcoming surgery?
Spinning “what if” scenarios about surgery or anaesthetic
Lying awake imagining everything that could go wrong
Anxiety at the hospital, in the waiting room or when you smell antiseptic
Fear of waking in pain, feeling sick or taking a long time to recover
Past medical or surgical experiences making this one feel even scarier
How hypnosis helps with endo, menopause & fertility ?
1. Reducing pre-op anxiety
We use mental rehearsal and calming suggestions so your brain has a clear, steady script for surgery day instead of a disaster movie.
2. Supporting pain and comfort
Hypnosis can help your brain process pain and discomfort differently, so you feel more comfortable and less distressed by post-op sensations.
3. Improving sleep before and after
We target racing thoughts and body tension so you can rest better in the lead-up, and find pockets of real rest in hospital and at home.
4. Strengthening recovery behaviours
We reinforce following post-op instructions, pacing yourself wisely and asking for support – not overdoing things on “good days”.
What Might Change for You?
Feeling calmer and more prepared before surgery
Less overwhelming fear in hospital environments
Better ability to rest and sleep around the operation
More confidence managing pain and doing rehab
A sense of having done everything in your control to support recovery
What to Expect in Sessions?
Clarify your procedure – type of surgery, dates, main fears or concerns.
Plan timing – usually 1–3 sessions before surgery, with optional follow-up afterwards.
Run mental rehearsals – hypnosis sessions that walk you through surgery day in a calm, grounded way.
Give you simple tools – brief scripts and practices to use the night before, on the day, and in early recovery.
