ABOUT HYPNOTHERAPY...
HYPNOTHERAPY
is a useful short term therapy that can help to resolve problems
originating from the subconcious mind.
When carried out by a trained and qualified therapist, it is a
safe and beneficial therapy, often bringing about long lasting,
or even permanent results.
Our conscious mind - the part that we use every day for normal
thinking processes, only operates at the surface level.
The subconscious mind however, functions at a deeper level, and
this is where we keep our memories, habits, fears and all the
things that make us automatically respond to the situations we
encounter during our lives.
Many of the emotional or mental problems we experience, may only
be outward symptoms of a deeper underlying cause, triggered by
what is stored in our subconscious mind. As we try to deal with
the various stressful or traumatic situations we can find ourselves
in, we are not usually aware of how these things are affecting
us at a deeper level. If we don't take any action, over time these
can build up, and eventually start to manifest as outward emotional,
mental or even physical symptoms.
By using hypnosis, a skilled hypnotherapist is able to easily
access and communicate with the deeper levels of the mind, in
order to find the root cause of these symptoms, and then help
you resolve them. Hypnosis is a hypnotic trance state, which is
a pleasant relaxing experience, similar to daydreaming, where
you are neither awake nor asleep, but you're still aware of your
surroundings and what is happening.
Hypnosis can be used to treat a whole range of problems, such
as fears and phobias, addictions, eg smoking or over eating, compulsive
behaviour, emotional problems, bed wetting, sleep problems, stress
related problems and anxiety, boosting self confidence and performance,
and many more. It can also be used to control pain, even during
operations or dental treatment.
Therapists use hypnosis within a variety of subjects, and there
are numerous different branches available. Some Hypnotherapists
may cover a wide range, whilst others specialise in specific areas,
such as smoking cessation, weight loss, addictions or regression.
