Facial tics are repetitive, brief, sporadic spasms of the facial muscles. They are extremely diverse, but the most usually seen are eye blinking, facial grimacing, nose wrinkling, mouth twitches, squinting as well as grunting and throat clearing. Such tics are usually symptomatic of neurological conditions such as Tourette syndrome. They traditionally happen during childhood and often fade away within some weeks, even though some can last much longer.

The causing factors of facial tics are still not very well understood, but a few things are thought to trigger or worsen the symptoms. Tics can result from some nutritional deficiencies such as a magnesium insufficiency, but they can also very often be symptoms of other conditions such as Tourette syndrome, whose causes are thought to be neurological, and, to a certain extent, genetic. Stress and anxiety have also been shown to provoke and significantly increase the tics' frequency.

Facial tics are hard to live with particularly for children. Schoolmates, teachers and even sometimes parents, might not understand how hard it is to hold back tics, particularly for a long period of time such as for example a class. People will most often ask the child to "stop it", or might even mock him or her because of the tics.

From facial grimaces to eye blinking, tics almost always feel embarrassing and inappropriate for children and adults alike. It is also fatiguing to have to try to control them perpetually. This obsession could cause you to become overly self-critical and you could in turn start to lose self-confidence or to develop some sort of social anxiety.

It is however possible to eliminate this embarrassment and to avoid other people's awkward looks. There are ways to significantly reduce, and sometimes definitely cure, facial ticks, in order to restore your peace of mind and enjoy a fully regular life. You might never have to be concerned anymore about facial grimaces or controlling any of those annoying twitches.

Facial tics are usually not treated or, in some acute cases or when the tics are symptoms of Tourette syndrome, patients might be prescribed antipsychotics which are also prescribed to treat conditions such as attention deficit disorder, schizophrenia or obsessive-compulsive disorders. Those drugs were not developed to cure facial tics particularly and may not always be efficient.

Moreover, they are known to have numerous adverse effects both on the short and long term. Depression, insomnia, weight gain, sexual dysfunction and anxiety are only some of the many adverse effects which can be caused by such drugs. Some of them can even aggravate tics in the long run! But there are however other ways of treating facial tics which are entirely natural and void of adverse effects.

Methods which use hypnosis and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) have been developed particularly in order to treat facial tics. They will help you reduce them over time. To understand why these methods work it is useful to know that tics are not a totally physiological disorder and are not completely involuntary either. They are an answer to an unconscious impulse to do the movement of the tic. This urge disagreeably builds up as you try to hold back from performing the movement. Such impulses also increase in both frequency and intensity when the patient feels stress or anxiety or when placed in certain situations.

Facial tics are a way to relieve pressure when you are feeling anxious or are coping with stressful conditions. Such an unconscious association may be cured using hypnosis and NLP, because they make it possible to alter the type of behavior your unconscious provokes when you are placed in certain situations. If acute, the therapist will suppress the facial tic by suggesting the unconscious make you move your toe instead. When you move your toe it is not visible or apparent to other people. Hypnosis also allows you to become a lot more relaxed overall, so it is a soothing experience. It will help you get rid of both the anxiety and stress which aggravate facial tics.

There are all sorts of facial tics: nose wrinkling, eye blinking, squinting, mouth twitches, grunting, facial grimacing or throat clearing. Although tics have physiological causes, there are also as we have seen, very strong emotional factors. Stress and anxiety are without a doubt the most considerable of those factors. Tics have their roots in the unconscious mind as an answer to states of stress or anxiety; using self-hypnosis and NLP you will be able to alter this association. Stress and anxiety might also be efficiently fought in the long run with the stress relieving and appeasing methods of hypnotherapy, which will greatly reduce the occurrence of facial tics.
