Clinical Hypnotherapy

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there some people who cannot be hypnotised?
No. The degree varies from person to person, as does their desire. You have to want to be relaxed.

Are drugs or tablets used?
No.

Will I be aware of what is happening?
Yes.

Will I fall asleep?
No. You will be extremely relaxed.

Will I lose control or be left in a zombie-like trance?
No. As with meditation and self-hypnosis, you can return to conscious awareness whenever you want. You use hypnosis in order to sleep and wake up every day. Day-dreaming is self-hypnosis but with your eyes open.

Is Stage Hypnosis the same as Hypnotherapy?
No. Stage Hypnosis is entertainment and the effects are temporary. Hypnotherapy is guided self-hypnosis aimed at creating a positive therapeutic change.

How many visits will I need?
Simple problems like slimming or smoking can require 3 to 6 sessions.
Deep rooted problems can require 5 to 10 sessions.
