Relio targets the key drivers of your persistent pain

Research shows 90% of persistent back pain cases are due to an overprotective pain system*.

Imagine a fire alarm that continues to sound even after the fire is extinguished. It’s so sensitive that a light breeze could set it off.

Similarly, with persistent pain, your pain system becomes hypersensitive – causing discomfort from the slightest of triggers.

Addressing an overprotective pain system is crucial for effective pain management, but often gets overlooked.

The program

How does clinical hypnosis work?

Hypnosis involves entering a state of absorbed attention where you become hyper-focused on specific stimuli (such as a feeling or a memory) led by suggestions from a hypnotherapist.

During hypnosis, suggestions bypass the critical mind allowing you to subconsciously 'fix' your overprotective pain system. These suggestions teach you automatic skills that can help you self-manage your pain.
