Nervous Sweating

Sweating on the hands, feet and underarms is a common and mostly embarrassing experience that is usually caused by stress and anxiety. Quite often the two go hand in hand, in this heightened emotional state the embarrassment of sweating leads to increased levels of anxiety. During periods of stress and anxiety, our core body temperature increases due to the hormones adrenaline and among others being released into our body. This increase in body temperature causes our subconscious mind to create sweat in an attempt to cool down.

This natural reaction of the mind and body causes us to feel self conscious and embarrassed by the sweat marks under our arms and our clammy hands. This self consciousness then leads to feeling of judgment and us focusing on the sweating, effectively creating more stress and anxiety.

How can I help?

Here at the Social Anxiety Clinic I help people overcome and regain control of anxiety, and the way they perceive anxiety provoking situations. Using the tools of Neuro Linguistic Programming, Hypnosis and Belief Change Techniques our clients experience significant relief in relatively short time frames when compared to other natural options available such as Meditation, breathing techniques, even CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), and psychotherapy.

Due to nervous sweating being related to anxiety and anxiety being under the control of our sub conscious mind, my approach is ideally suited to helping you gain relief, as I will help you change the way your sub conscious mind perceives threats around you. By changing this we actually deal directly with the cause of nervous sweating, reducing its severity for good.
