Lets start with definitions. These definitions have come from a range of website definitions which I think sum up the technical stuff of Hypnotherapy very well.
Definition: Hypnotherapy is the treatment of a variety of health conditions by hypnotism or by inducing prolonged sleep. Pioneers in this field, such as James Braid and James Esdaile discovered that hypnosis could be used to successfully anesthetize patients for surgeries. James Braid accidentally discovered that one of his patients began to enter a hypnotic state while staring at a fixed light as he waited for his eye examination to begin. Since mesmerism had fallen out of favor, Braid coined the term hypnotism, which is derived from the Greek word for sleep. Braid also used the techniques of monotony, rhythm, and imitation to assist in inducing a hypnotic state. As of 2000, these techniques are still in use.
Well, since 1999 I started my first foray into the professional realm of psychology starting with a Centaur Psychology based course in management at Cranfield University. A year later after getting my diploma at Cranfield Univeristy I attended an advanced Centaur Pschology/Management course which was hosted and run by Andy Logan. In 2001/2 I started a personal two year therapy process with Anne-Marie Halliwell (deceased) of CMCG Consultancy which then later lead to me, in 2004, completing my NLP Practitioner Course with CMCG Consultancy. In 2007 I completed my NLP Master Practioner course with CMCG Consultancy. To the present day I have been a practicing NLP Therapist, learning every day and in 2019 I got my Masters Diploma for Hypnotherapy.
Hypnotherapy is used in a number of fields including psychotherapy, surgery, dentistry, research, and medicine. Hypnotherapy is commonly used as an alternative treatment for a wide range of health conditions, including weight control, pain management, and smoking cessation. It is also used to control pain in a variety of conditions such as headache, facial neuralgia, arthritis, burns, musculoskeletal disorders, childbirth, and many more. Hypnotherapy is being used in place of anesthesia, particularly in patients who prove to be allergic to anesthetic drugs, for surgeries such as hysterectomies, cesarean sections, certain cardiovascular procedures, thyroidectomy, and others. Dentistry is using hypnotherapy with success on patients who are allergic to all types of novocaine drugs. Hypnotherapy is also useful in helping patients overcome phobias. We also use Hypnotherapy in conjunction with our Past Life Healing therapy, they compliment each other.
Our method of using Hypnotherapy can be summed up as:
- Initial meeting to discuss what you would like the outcome of the hypnotherapy session to be.
- Arranging a suitable time or series of dates/times to start your hypnotherapy journey.
- Followups and feedback and at the same time helping you to make sense of and sort out your world
We look forward to working with you on what you would like to learn about yourself or what you would like to change to make things better for yourself. You have resources inside of you, we just help you to learn how to bring them out and use them for yourself.
