Hypnosis to help resolve blushing and facial flushing, at the Cambridge Hypnotherapy Clinic
Almost everybody experiences facial blushing at some point, and it is a very normal, bodily reaction. Blushing is an unconscious, physical response that our bodies have to certain situations and is most often the result of feeling embarrassed, 'on the spot' or just feeling judged by other people. However, blushing becomes a problem when the sufferer becomes intensely aware of themselves blushing - resulting in feeling even more aware of themselves.
Plus, the fact that the sufferer thinks that others can see them blushing only serves to make them feel even more self conscious. They may then come to dread or avoid social situations or interactions due to a fear of blushing. Many people contact me for help with blushing with Hypnotherapy - it is a very common problem.
It is just one of the symptoms of social anxiety or social phobia, which is a fear of any situation where the sufferer is likely to feel embarassed, humiliated or judged - for example; dinner parties, public speaking, interviews, appearing in court, singing and stuttering.
Associated symptoms: sensitivity to criticism, negative self image, fear of rejection, difficulty in being assertive and feelings of inferiority. Basically any situation in life where you might feel embarrassed, on the spot, judged, silly, out of control etc.
Resolving Blushing with Pure Hypnoanalysis
Blushing (and associated social anxiety symptoms) responds really well to a course of Pure Hypnoanalysis, and you can be fairly certain of a resolution after just 6-10 sessions.
Blushing, social anxiety, shyness, etc and are caused by the sufferer bottling up some strong emotions in their childhoon, and those emotions being projected onto an object/situation. For example, if you are bitten by a dog this may lead to a fear of dogs). The only way to totally CURE a phobia/symptom - to banish it completely - is to release the bottled up emotions that are causing it.
These bottled up emotions are completely locked away in the depths of the persons subconscious mind. Most other types of therapy cannot gain access to these 'locked away' emotions and experiences, whereas Pure Hypnoanalysis can. The process of Pure Hypnoanalysis requires a strong bond of trust and rapport being created between the therapist, and the client. Over a period of about 6-10 sessions, we slowly link thoughts and memories back through time - using a very simple process - until we come to the bottled up emotions. When we release these emotions, the phobia/symptom is resolved forever and the client feels happier, more relaxed and more confident and that a weight has been lifted from their shoulders.

Testimonials
Dearest Rob
I promised you I would write and tell you of my successes since seeing you last year...
I consulted you for blushing and social anxiety, which were preventing me from 'getting out there' and leading a happy, fulfilled life. I was very depressed, wasn't happy in my work, and couldn't find a partner.
Well... it has ALL changed now!
I find it difficult to explain just how much the therapy has changed my life, because I cannot believe it myself sometimes.....
I am MUCH happier, and haven't felt at all depressed in nearly a year (I realise now that you were right when you said I wasn't really depressed anyway - just 'tearing the arse' out of my social phobia) I sing in a band (can you believe that??), have a lovely partner and a great job.
I feel genuinely happy, for the first time in my life.
I had tried many other therapies, including counseling, CBT, EFT, and 'normal' hypnotherapy, as well as 18 months on Seroxat: none of these things helped.
My 9 sessions with you are a blur now, but they have really, REALLY changed my life. Thank you so much Rob, you really are a special man!
