Pain Relaxation for Children Hypnosis Script

It may be helpful for the child to understand how their pain occurs. This is an explanation that can be simplified in order to better explain the process to a child. Pain may be experienced in a variety of sensations. It is the same for children. Their spinal cord behaves like a relay center that can block the pain signal, increase it, or modify prior to relaying to the brain. The area of the spinal cord called the dorsal horn is important in the reception of pain signals.

The neurotransmitters function as doors or gates and allow the pain messages to pass through and on to the cells. One of the chemicals associated with pain that has been studied is called glutamate. During experiments, the glutamate receptors in mice were blocked, and it was proven that their pain was lessened. Morphine and other opioid drugs work by locking on to these receptors, switching on pain-inhibiting pathways or circuits, and thereby blocking pain.

It is not too strong a leap of faith to see where hypnosis could have this same effect. If a medication has the ability to interfere with the message of pain to the brain, then surely the human mind can interfere with that message as well. Through this hypnosis script, your child can learn to control the pain message in the same manner that a drug would interfere with the pain message.

The anasthesia that aids in pain relief can be manufactured naturally, through the subconscious connection with the pain that this script will enable your child to perform.
