Hypnotheraphy
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach aimed at creating positive life changes. By relaxing the body and the conscious mind, we can rewrite old negative programming, reframe painful experiences and access inner wisdom.
Hypnosis induces a trance, which produces a state of deep relaxation and intense, focused attention. Contrary to popular beliefs, hypnotic trance is not like sleep or being unconscious. Instead, the experience is one of being both intensely aware and incredibly relaxed at the same time. A person in a deeply focused state is unusually responsive to an idea or image. However, this does not mean that the hypnotherapist can control the person’s mind or free will. On the contrary, hypnosis can actually teach people how to master their own states of awareness. By doing so, they can affect their own bodily functions and psychological responses.
Hypnotherapy is guided by the intentions of the client and often uses his/her own words, repeated by the therapist to the unconscious mind, in order to create the desired changes. Again, the client is never out of control nor told to do something the client is morally or ethically opposed to do. Hypnotherapy is performed fully clothed and no one is touched physically. It is very relaxing and many clients report feeling rested and revitalized after their sessions. Hypnotherapy can be used alone or in conjunction with other medical treatments and therapeutic approaches.
