Hypnotherapy is becoming an increasingly popular form of therapy for the treatment of several conditions, including issues people face in their sex lives.

One of the most common problems women face when it comes to their sexual life is vaginismus. In the world of psychology, this condition usually refers to the involuntary spasm of the vaginal muscles during the insertion of a tampon or during sexual penetration.

Women with this condition face discomfort, a certain level of pain, and may also experience dyspareunia. 

So, how does hypnotherapy for vaginismus treatment work?

If you’re wondering this, I’ve got you covered. As an expert in the field of hypnotherapy, I have a deep understanding of how this form of therapy can help overcome several problems, including vaginismus.

I’ve put together a blog post containing all you need to know about hypnotherapy for vaginismus treatment, let’s take a look!

What Is Vaginismus?

Vaginismus is when the muscles of the vagina squeeze or spasm when something enters it. Whether this is when inserting a tampon or during vaginal penetration, it can be either mildly or very uncomfortable and painful.

Vaginismus typically shows as one of two types, primary or secondary. Primary vaginismus, or lifelong vaginismus, is when a woman experiences pain every time something is inserted into or enters her vagina.

Secondary, or acquired vaginismus, is usually distinguished when a woman has had sex before without pain but it then becomes difficult or impossible at a later time.

Dyspareunia, or painful sex, is often the first symptom of vaginismus, this pain usually occurs during penetration. Women also experience discomfort when they use a tampon or during a pelvic exam at the doctors.

While the main reason behind this is usually linked to anxiety or fear of sex, there’s not much clarity behind it. 

Hypnotherapy For Vaginismus Treatment – Here’s What You Need to Know

Hypnotherapy for vaginismus concentrates on accessing your subconscious, to understand the root cause behind this fear or anxiety that leads to the individual’s involuntary contractions of the vaginal muscles.

The subconscious part of our brain stores most of our emotions, including suppressed ones which we don’t wish to relive on account of them triggering painful or negative memories.

These fears are embedded in our subconscious and may grow in intensity or surface during different periods. These fears need not necessarily be limited to sexual experiences, they can be more than that.

Hypnotherapy is considered an effective method of treatment, especially when it is compared against most other treatments, as it can identify the root cause of the problem and treat it from there.

In your hypnotherapy sessions, I can help you to ease negative thoughts and identify stressors that are attached to a memory that causes vaginismus. This is beneficial as it can help you to overcome anxiety and any other problems that add to your uncomfortable experience too.

Psychological problems that a woman may face can trigger or intensify any issues they may already be experiencing, which makes it important for a hypnotherapist to find the root cause and treat it.
