Stop biting your nails

HYPNOSIS STOP NAIL BITING

Hypnosis is an effective, gentle way to help stop nail biting (onychophagia), a behavior often linked to stress, anxiety or unconscious automatisms. By acting directly on the emotional and behavioral triggers behind the habit, hypnosis gradually deactivates the habit and replaces it with healthier responses. It helps to strengthen willpower, ease internal tensions and regain self-control, while promoting a better self-image.

• Access to unconscious causes of behavior

  Hypnosis helps to understand and defuse the deep, often unconscious triggers (stress, boredom, need for comfort...) that maintain the habit of nail biting.

• Reduced stress and anxiety

  By inducing a state of deep relaxation, hypnosis helps reduce internal tension, making it unnecessary to resort to nervous gestures such as nail biting.

• Installation of new positive reflexes

  Using individualized suggestions, hypnosis gradually replaces undesirable behavior with more neutral or constructive gestures (breathing, moving your hands differently...).

• Boosting motivation and self-control

  Hypnosis strengthens the ability to resist the urge to bite nails, by mobilizing internal resources and developing awareness of at-risk moments.

• Improved self-esteem

  By helping to stop this often unpleasant behavior, hypnosis contributes to restoring a more positive self-image, and to regaining the pride of cared-for hands.
