Conventional medicine simply cannot help people who suffer from nail biting, or rather, who find themselves unable to stop themselves biting their nails. Behind this inability to stop is the human mind. The subconscious thought or belief that it is ‘normal’ to be biting, despite the rational conscious thought that it is something that should be stopped, is powerful enough for a sufferer to cause their fingers and nails considerable damage before even realizing that they are biting.
The reason we bite our nails is in the mind and therefore it is the mind that must be treated. Hypnotherapy is the obvious answer because it deals directly with the subconscious, the automatic part of the mind which is largely responsible for nail biting. In fact, the act of initiating biting the nails is most of the time a subconscious act. At some point you may realize your hand is in your mouth doing the damage but by then itÂ’s too late. The habit usually starts in childhood and occasionally the nail biting part of the mind acts like a different individual within us, it is often fixated in childhood and, like a child, the more we lecture it to stop, the more it bites. In some cases I may actually communicate and negotiate with this part in order to get it to totally reverse the damage it is doing.
During hypnosis a whole variety of special techniques will be applied, suggestions are made to the subconscious that you will no longer bite your nails and that you will always be aware, the instant your hand should come up to your mouth. You are then instructed that you will not wish to damage your nails or hands. In some cases, with prior your agreement, I may also use aversion therapy, so that the idea of biting your nails makes you feel sick or revolted.
