Hypnosis

Hypnosis is not a therapy, rather a therapy is conducted in Hypnosis which is called Hypno-Psychotherapy. Hypnosis is a trance like state and everyone has the ability to enter into a trance. Everyday, people slip into natural trance states when they become absorbed in watching TV, reading, using computers, or even driving. Hypnotherapy is psychotherapy, a treatment for mental and emotional problems - which uses Hypnosis to help. It works by lulling people into a state of relaxation that then gives access to the Subconscious mind. Hypnosis is the key that unlocks the door into the 'power house' of thoughts, memories and emotions stored in the Subconscious mind.

There are two types of therapy, Suggestion Therapy which can be used for smoking, nail-biting, pre-test nerves, slimming, relaxation, confidence building etc., and which require only one to three sessions with a solution focused Hypnotherapy audio tape for self-hypnosis and rienforcement.

The second is Analytical Psychotherapy, which is used to discover CAUSES of psychological problems. Hypno-Analysis can be summarised briefly as the doctrine of cause and effect; every effect must have a cause. Hypno-Analysis reveals and thus removes the cause and consequently relieves the symptoms.
