Biting and chewing fingernails

Nail-biting is a nerve impulse or a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder. With it, self-injury is possible.

Fingernail biting is not only ugly but can also bring health problems such as chronic nail inflammation or nail growth disorders.

Causes of nail-biting often include stress, nervousness, boredom, imbalance, but also an imitation.

For many, nail-biting occurs only in stressful phases. This occasional fingernail biting can manifest as a real OCD. Therefore, sufferers should consider treatment early.

Use of hypnotherapy for nail-biting

Nail-biting can also be an indication for a deeper mental disorder, but in many cases, it is simply a bad habit or a sign of tension,” says Professor Steffen Moritz, a graduate psychologist at the Department of Psychiatry at the University Hospital Hamburg/ Eppendorf (UKE).

Biodynamic hypnosis is the method to stop the fingernail biting finally:

  • Hypnosis has a profoundly relaxing effect on the physical and mental levels.
  • Analytical hypnosis targets possible causes in the subconscious.
