Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Unfortunately, many ailments are accompanied by pain. While treatment for the underlying issue is under way the pain itself can serve little purpose other than to be an uncomfortable and distracting reminder. Prescription drugs and other substances may be used to dull or mask physical pain, but they are often accompanied by unwanted or dangerous side-effects, and may eventually lose their effectiveness.
Hypnosis offers a drug and side-effect free alternative to pain management. Since pain is a signal interpreted by the the mind, it is possible to re-frame those signals by training the mind's response to them. Using the power of your own imagination to dull, direct, and distract, I'll help you learn to control the sensation and intensity of pain and find relief.

The intersection of mind-body is no more apparent than in chronic pain and illness treatment. Dr. Hannah Khoddam in our practice specializes in chronic pain and illness and has trained at VA Hospitals and UCLA Ronald Reagan Hospital with the goal of helping individuals learn how to cope with their pain differently in order to reduce the amount of suffering. It may not go away completely, but it can be managed.
