What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy explained
Hypnosis is a naturally occuring state of mind we all go into every day eg when you are daydreaming, watching television , reading a book etc
Everyone goes into hypnotic states every day
When you are in a hypnotic state you conscious mind is not so alert. You could be engrossed in a book and totally unaware when someone tries to get your attention. You are not consciously so aware of them
Clincial Hypnotherapy uses this phenomenan as when your conscious mind is not so alert your subconscious mind is more accessable and suggestions given by a hypnotherapist are more likely to be accepted. Your hypnotherapist will help you become more relaxed using suggestions, words and visualisations.
You will only accept suggestions that are right for you. You are in total control
It is estimated that 85% of people will readily respond to clinical hypnotherapy and it may even succeed where other more conventional methods of treatment have been slow to produce the desired results.
When carried out by a professionally trained and skilled hypnotherapist, the benefits are usually long lasting and often permanent. It is completely natural and safe, with no harmful side effects.
