Hypnotherapy For Nail Biting

Nail biting is automatic. People bite their nails without thinking. While children can outgrow the behaviour, sometimes it persists into adulthood. While nail biting behaviour can stem from any number of things and can occur with or without any underlying physical conditions, it is important to understand where it stems from if there is a source. This is so that more than only mitigate the challenges of nail biting, you’ll be able to abstain from the behaviour completely and eliminate the compulsions that encourage it in the first place. Nail biting is often associated with conditions such as separation anxiety, tic disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and other mental health problems. These can pose bigger, more complex problems in the long run if left unresolved. Furthermore, they also cause more immediate physical concerns. This includes bacterial infections, wounds to the nailbed and skin, irritation and damage, to the increased risk of infections due to spreading germs from the fingers to the mouth. To stop nail biting hypnosis has been found to be particularly useful in creating long-term results. In addition, we highly recommend reading our  “How hypnotherapy help  for children“.
