Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy

What is hypnosis? 

It may be surprising to learn that we experience trance states every day during the course of our lives. Even passing into ordinary sleep involves a kind of trance state. The experience of hypnosis is similar : neither asleep nor awake and a little like daydreaming, with a pleasant feeling of deep relaxation behind it all. Hypnosis is a different state of consciousness which you can enter naturally for therapeutic purposes so beneficial positive suggestions may be given directly to your helpful unconscious mind. 

In this way, hypnosis is an effective way of making contact with our inner (unconscious) self, which is both a reservoir of unrecognised potential and knowledge as well as being the unwitting source of many of our issues or mental blockages. 

It is a fact that no-one can be hypnotised against their will and even when hypnotised, a person can still reject any suggestion. Thus therapeutic hypnosis is a combination of teamwork between Hypnotherapist & patient.

Hypnotherapy 

Clinical Hypnotherapy involves using hypnosis to treat a variety of medical and psychological problems. It is estimated that 85% of people will readily respond to clinical hypnotherapy. It may even succeed where other, more conventional methods of treatment have not produced the desired results. When carried out by a professionally trained and skilled hypnotherapist, the benefits can be long lasting and often permanent. It is natural and safe, with no harmful side effects.
