Presentation Description

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) and hypnosis

Join us at the Belgium Hypnotherapy Conference for an eye-opening session on Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)—a condition that affects 1 in 6 neurological consultations yet currently has no definitive medical solution.

As one of the few hypnotherapists specializing in FND, I have worked extensively with individuals seeking relief from life-altering symptoms such as seizures, movement disorders, cognitive difficulties, and chronic pain. While traditional medicine struggles to offer answers, hypnotherapy is proving to be a powerful tool—helping the mind process unresolved trauma and allowing the body to respond, often leading to remarkable recoveries.

In this session, I will share the latest research, compelling real-world case studies from my own practice, and practical hypnotherapy techniques that bridge the connection between mind and body. You’ll discover innovative approaches for trauma release, neurological reprogramming, and holistic healing that have led to significant symptom reduction—and, in many cases, full recovery.

Whether you’re a practitioner seeking breakthrough therapeutic methods or someone looking to understand new frontiers in healing, this session will provide you with practical tools, deeper insights, and an inspiring perspective on the mind’s incredible ability to heal.

Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of a transformative discussion that could change lives—including yours!
