Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy explained in easy to understand language

     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:-
  • Can any one achieve hypnosis?
Most people may, providing (a) they wish to be hypnotised and (b) they understand the things they need to do in order to achieve the hypnotic state.

  • Can I be hypnotised against my will?
No one can be hypnotised 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.
  • Will I be unconscious?
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 hypnotised.
  • 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.
