Research Notes on Bed Wetting and Hypnosis
If you are looking to treat your child's bedwetting without medication, alternative therapy such as hypnotherapy may be useful.1 Involuntary bedwetting, medically referred to as enuresis or primary nocturnal enuresis, is common in many children over age six.2 Hypnosis is considered a relaxed, or trance-like, state of mind; hypnosis may work for bedwetting by training your child to wake up when the bladder is full.3
Fast Facts:
- Hypnosis may work best when the underlying cause of bedwetting is stress related.4
- Acupuncture, massage, and chiropractic care are other alternative therapies that may treat bedwetting.5
- Limited data is available regarding the effectiveness of alternative treatments of bedwetting.6
- Consultation with your child's medical professional is recommended before beginning any new therapy or treatment.
