What is Hypnotherapy and Why is it so Effective?

Hypnosis is one of the most fascinating yet least understood forms of therapy - but it's far simpler than most people realise.

Hypnosis is an accepted form of medical treatment

Franz Mesmer brought hypnosis to public attention around 1770, but the earliest records date to ancient Egypt around 1500 BCE - where Imhotep used healing Sleep Temples as early suggestion therapy. Hypnosis has been an accepted form of medical treatment since the 1950s.

What is the fundamental difference between psychotherapy and hypnotherapy?

Rather than dealing with the conscious analytical brain, hypnotherapy accesses the subconscious - where all feelings, emotions, and behaviours exist. The Conscious Critical Faculty (CCF) rejects incoming information that doesn't match previous patterns. Hypnosis bypasses this filter and removes fears, beliefs and phobias directly from the subconscious - quickly and effectively.

What is the most common reason people seek hypnotherapy?

Anxiety, depression, fears, phobias, perfectionism, self-sabotage, finding purpose. People who don't want medication and who have tried everything else.

*Phobias require 3 sessions; anxiety 4-8 sessions on average.
