Hypnotherapy / Hypnosis

History has shown that both Hypnotherapy and Acupuncture have very powerful healing abilities. I have found by utilising them together or separately, I've had great results from minor to chronic illnesses, particularly where Western Medicine has been ineffective.

​Hypnosis is a very effective therapy in assisting the body in healing itself from dis-ease, aches and pains, and a myriad of imbalances in the body. 

Sessions are conducted individually in a relaxed environment. You just need to follow instructions given by the hypnotherapist. Healing suggestions are then given to your subconscious mind. You will be aware of your surroundings and it feels like a guided meditation.

What Happens in the Sessions?

The hypnotherapy sessions are individually conducted. They are tailored specifically for each person, according to the current problems the person is seeking to resolve.

The hypnotherapist and the client will discuss the health, psychological, mental and emotional troubles, in order to understand some of the reasons and mechanisms that led the person to behave in a certain way.

The hypnotherapy session itself feels like a guided meditation. The hypnotherapist will give step by step instructions to the person in order to achieve a relaxation state, and then give specific healing suggestions where appropriate.

Once the hypnotherapy session is finished, we discuss what the person visualised and felt, and reinforce the aims and progressions from there on. These are called post-hypnotic suggestions.

Is Hypnotherapy the Same as Meditation?

Although hypnotherapy sessions feel similar to guided meditation, the results are generally achieved much quicker. This is due to the techniques used in hypnotherapy, as the critical faculty or critical thinking is bypassed in hypnosis (Elman, 1964). What does this mean? Those mental barriers we create ourselves to overcome a problem or disease are bypassed, by the client own choice. The hypnotherapist has no control over the client. The client will only accept suggestions that he or she agrees with. The client will only bypass this critical thinking if he or she wants to bypass it.

Critical Thinking in Hypnotherapy

Why bypassing this critical thinking is so important in hypnosis? Although it is not vital to bypass the critical thinking, once the person chooses to bypass or overcome the set thinking, he or she can achieve phenomenal physical and emotional healing outcomes.

​​The person will still have healing outcomes if choosing to not bypass the critical thinking, but improving on a slower pace.

Will I Lose Control?

No. The client has 100% control over what they want changed in their lives and health. No matter what is said or suggested to the client, if that suggestion goes against the client's believe and morals, he or she will automatically reject the suggestion.

What is seen on TV shows is what is called 'Stage Hypnosis'. People imitating a duck or chicken are willing to do that. Notice that many people are sent back to their chairs once they do not conform to what the showman is trying to achieve for entertainment purposes. 

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

You get noticeable benefits from every hypnotherapy session. Generally speaking, most people need at least 10 sessions to improve most health and emotional imbalances. Some conditions take longer to improve and others get solved within a few sessions.

Addictions, weight loss, some health conditions and deep emotional / psychological issues will require more sessions, as they evolve from multi-factorial events.
