Hypnotherapy has taken great strides forward and is an accepted and successful therapy these days, but there are still misconceptions and dark areas associated with it.

Allow us to examine the reality by describing the procedure.

A hypnotherapy session will take place in a comfortable and quiet environment, and during the first session you can talk in confidence about the issues you wish to overcome. You will have the chance to ask questions, explain how you feel, and address your concerns.

Sometimes it is the first time a client has been allowed to talk in depth and to be listened to. This alone is therapeutic.

The hypnotherapist will provide you with information about hypnosis, as well as what to expect during the session. Everything you need to be able to relax while reaching you goal is provided.

The first session will often take two hours in order for the therapist to get an understanding of the problem and explain the process involved with your therapy, as well as a session of hypnosis. Return visits will take about an hour and a half.

Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis in a therapeutic condition, using the brain’s natural ability to produce a deeply relaxed state. A powerful learning tool is deep relaxation, also known as a trance. When you are hypnotised you are more aware of new concepts, ideas and learning, allowing you to become optimistic about making changes to accomplish your goal.

Hypnosis acts like daydreaming, and relaxes you deeply in a comfortable position. Your breathing gets slower and more relaxed, and the mind becomes focused on suggestions made by the therapist, it is gentle and relaxing and very powerful.

These suggestions and visualisations help you to make positive changes within yourself, so that you can overcome irrational fears, phobias, negative thoughts and work on deep emotions.
You will be alert, relaxed, refreshed and feel wonderful at the end of the session when your therapist brings you out. You are then often invited to talk about it if you wish.

Hypnotherapy can offer help in many areas including slimming down, natural birthing, quitting smoking, obsessive compulsive disorder treatments, stress, fear of flying as well as many others.

Therapy is done on a person by person basis, every treatment is different and can last as long as needed. Most problems require three or more sessions, except for programs to stop smoking, which usually require one long session (with follow-up as needed).

Although Hypnotherapy is now widely accepted as a successful therapy method,  there are still some misconceptions and dark areas associated with it.

Let’s see how it really works.

Hypnotherapy - using hypnosis in therapy - takes advantage of the brain’s innate ability to create a very relaxed state of being. A powerful learning tool is deep relaxation, also known as a trance. When in hypnosis you are more open to new ideas, suggestions and discoveries, allowing you to make the positive changes you want to achieve your goal.

Hypnosis is similar to day-dreaming, with feelings of deep relaxation and concentration, you sit in a comfortable chair with a pillow behind your neck and a small rug over you, you close your eyes, and the therapist starts talking, hypnosis is brought about by suggestion, beginning with the suggestion of relaxation. Breathing gets slower and your body relaxes, while your mind focuses on suggestions made by the therapist.  While powerful, this experience is gentle and relaxing.

Hypnotherapists help their clients to conquer irrational fears, phobias, negative self-talk and work through deeply felt emotions using suggestions and visualisations.
When the therapist brings you out of your hypnosis, you will be left feeling wonderfully alert, relaxed and refreshed. You are then often invited to talk about it if you wish.

A clinical hypnotherapist can offer help in many areas including ocd treatments and weight loss programmes as well as many others.

Because of the wide range of problems, and personal abilities, the number of sessions required is different for everyone. Most problems take at least three sessions to treat but smoking cessation is usually covered in one long session.
