Hi - We do have fondant candies in the US.

Hypnotherapy works on the brain-gut dysfunction that actually causes IBS symptoms. It is effective whether your symptoms and attacks are anxiety-related or not. Because it is so relaxing, it is helpful for people who have anxiety problems as well, but this is a bonus. If you're having problems when you're totally relaxed and don't feel that anxiety is involved at all, this doesn't make a difference for hypnotherapy. You still have the dysfunction of the enteric (gut) nervous system and that system's interaction with your brain. Hypnotherapy causes physical changes to this system and alleviates IBS symptoms as a result.

I'd really urge you to check Shawneric's posts on the hypno board. There are a TON of helpful links and article info there, and he can explain how hypnotherapy works for IBS in very clear, explicit terms much better than I can.

Best,
Heather
