Hypnotherapy is a therapy using hypnosis not only to alleviate symptoms but also often to uncover the cause of the problem, which can be corrected thus ensuring a complete and permanent cure.
Hypnosis is a deep state of relaxation from which your subconscious, the controller of all automatic processes and reactions can be contacted.
Understanding how the
subconscious works and why it works the way it does we can through the
use of various hypnotic techniques help you to make those changes you
wish to make for your own benefit.
Some of the more frequently asked questions:-
Most people may, providing (a) they wish to be hypnotized and (b) they understand the things they need to do in order to achieve the hypnotic state.
- Can I be hypnotized against my will?
No one can be hypnotized unless they actively wish to enter hypnosis.
You see all hypnosis is self hypnosis as it happens in your mind. The
therapist is there using his/her expertise and skill to guide you into
the relaxed state we call hypnosis.
No, not at all. You will be completely aware of what is happening all
the time. Because hypnosis is a natural state which we all experience
everyday, some people find it difficult to believe they have been
hypnotized.
- How successful is hypnotherapy?
That can depend on a number of factors. But the rapport between the
therapist and the client is a very important factor, the type of issue
and how deep rooted the issue has become. Some people require only a
few sessions, whereas others may require a course of sessions.
- What can i expect to happen?
One of the most important things is that you can expect to feel
comfortable and at ease with the therapist as this is very important in
hypnotherapy. It is for this reason that most people book a
consultation to discuss the issue, and then decide if they wish to
proceed. Once you have decide to proceed with hypnotherapy you will not
at anytime undergo a prolonged course once your treatment is
successful. Be careful of people saying you will need to book 4, 5, 6
etc. sessions. Every person is different and must be treated as an
individual.
- What can hypnosis be used for?
Apart from the usual issues such as smoking cessation and weight control hypnosis can be used effectively to overcome:-
Stress
Exam Nerves
High Blood Pressure
Phobias
Sports Performance
Stammering
Natural Childbirth
The list is almost endless. So do not think that your problem is too
silly or difficult to solve. We will look at the problem and if we can
help you on the road back to a fuller, healthier and more satisfying
life we will.
