What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy brings together hypnosis with other therapeutic techniques. The hypnotic state allows a person to remain aware of their surroundings, yet also be more open to discussion and suggestion by accessing the subconscious mind while deeply relaxed. While under hypnosis you are completely in control of what you say and do, and will remember everything that has transpired. The hypnotic state, also know as a trance state, is common among all of us, such as when driving a car home and not remembering how you got there, or watching a television show and forgetting about the passage of time.
Hypnosis can lower blood pressure and heart rate and change certain types of brain wave activity that can change emotional states. When we are in a more relaxed state, the conscious mind, often the part of us that is resistant to change, is quieted. We can go to the root of a problem and remove it from its core by applying other therapeutic techniques, such as Gestalt therapy and other clinically proven approaches, that allow you to release any obstacles that have prevented you from healing.
Hypnotherapy can be highly successful in the treatment of a wide variety of conditions, including: fears and anxiety, sleep deprivation, stress related issues, and grief and loss. Hypnotherapy is also very useful to overcome habits, such as smoking or overeating as these habits are dictated by the subconscious mind.
With the combination of hypnosis and therapy (hypnotherapy), the old conclusions that one made early in life can be replaced with new, more positive and affirming conclusions and beliefs about oneself. It is with the subconscious mind that we are able to access the part of us which makes change happen at a true and lasting level.
