Provide funding to make hypnotherapy more widely available on the NHS

Closed 74 signatures

What the petition asks

I think the Government should provide funding to make hypnotherapy more widely available on the NHS. I believe we could cut down waiting and healing times by giving people access to hypnotherapy. I think this could also reduce sickness in the workplace and increase productivity.
I see so many people suffering when they could have access to help and many people are prescribed medication for stress and anxiety. We spend millions on the NHS handing out tablets but I think that just a few sessions of hypnotherapy could heal some patients.
