Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy
What is hypnosis?
It may be surprising to many to learn
that we experience trance states often 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
naturally enter so that, for therapeutic purposes, beneficial corrections
may be given directly to your 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
problems.
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 state of purposeful co-operation.
Hypnotherapy
Clinical Hypnotherapy means 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.
