THE UK's NICE Guidelines for IBS launched in Feb 2008 suggests hypnotherapy as one of the treatment protocols if after 12 months of "orthodox' treatment has been ineffective. Again, as a 'last resort.' I find it interesting that something that seems to work effectively after all else has failed, is used last. Common sense would say to try it first or at least with the others!

Dr Whorwell first published his findings in the Lancet in 1984; I believe the river imagery is his. A similar protocol is being used by the UNC in conjunction with his work.

Thank you for sharing the self-help tips! These are great.

For those of us who need extra guidance and a complete IBS hypnotherapy protocol as well as support, the IBS Audio Program can provide it. While all hypnotherapy/hypnosis is actually self hypnosis, having guidance for the sessions takes away the act of "thinking" about what imagery you will use and provides it for you.

These guidelines are very helpful though - thanks for sharing!
