Hypnotherapy is completely safe; it is natural and works with the way that the mind naturally operates. It is also recognised by the National Health Service and by the British Medical Association. More than just being safe, hypnosis is demonstrably effective at bringing about change, and has been shown to improve the function of the immune system and the digestive system and lead to more restful sleep.
Everyone can be hypnotised, however some people may choose to resist the process. All you need to do is choose to relax and simply remember that you are always in total control at all times. No one can make you do anything against your will. Your willingness to co-operate is vital and also beneficial to you.
The stage shows are designed to be entertaining and have in fact distorted the truth about hypnosis. The stage hypnotist is very talented at choosing certain individuals who are most likely to respond positively to the hypnotic suggestions. These people are fully aware, totally in control and are choosing to follow the instructions and suggestions they are given, despite how it looks on T.V!
Hypnosis is a state of relaxation which you are in control at all times. You can come back to conscious awareness at anytime by simply opening your eyes.
The initial consultation and hypnotherapy session will take approximately 1 hr and 30 minutes, and thereafter each session will last up to an hour.
Many issues are resolved after 3-4 sessions with people often feeling better after the first. More complex matters may take longer.
