Hypnosis is a pleasant state similar to a relaxed daydream. There is no loss of conscious control and the mind is not being taken over. People often say they have never felt so relaxed!
Other so called 'talking therapies' - such as counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and psychotherapy - tend not to talk to the subconscious mind. These approaches can fail to address the underlying subconscious cause of automatic, yet unwanted, thoughts and actions.
Hypnotherapy can typically help resolve many emotional & stress-related conditions - such as a compulsion to overeat, lack of confidence & self-esteem, or an unrational fear or phobia... all of which can eventually lead to physical health issues, or just be disruptive to everyday life.
Although hypnotherapy can make a drug-free contribution to resolving many chronic conditions, it is neither a 'magic wand' nor necessarily an instant solution. The process involves co-operative between practitioner and client. Whilst individuals differ in their responseness to hypnosis everyone, of normal intelligence and above, can be hypnotised - if they allow themselves to just 'go with the flow' - into a pleasantly relaxed daydream. Who doesn't daydream every day?! We all do.

Low Libido - a lack of sex drive or frigidity Low Self-esteem - low opinions of oneself Memory Recall Migraines - Severe headaches and/or nausea Mindfulness Nail Biting Obesity Nervousness Obsessions - recurring thoughts or acts such as checking OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Panic Attacks - uncontrollable feelings of dread, anxiety or impending disaster Past Life Regression Personal Development Phobias - fears of certain situations or things Premature Ejaculation - a male sexual disorder PTSD - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Public Speaking Relationship Issues Self-Doubt Self-esteem Self-harm - cutting or burning the skin to release anxiety Sex addiction Sexual problems Shy Bladder (Paruresis) - an inability to urinate in front of others Skin problems Snoring Social Phobia or Anxiety - fear of being 'on the spot' or humiliated by others Stop Smoking - hypnosis to quit smoking Stuttering and Stammering - often a symptom of social anxiety Stress Tension Trichotillmania - chronic hair pulling Vaginismus - female sexual disorder Virtual Gastric Band with Hypnosis Weight Control - weight loss, weight gain and management Weight Loss Weight Control White Coat Syndrome (Fear of Doctors, Dentists & Hospitals) |
