Hypnosis Frequently Asked Questions

Hypnotherapy FAQ's

What is the purpose of hypnotherapy?
To make positive, healthy changes to the body and mind. Hypnotherapy is used to enhance your mind's ability to heal the body. Within your subconscious mind (your inner mind), you hold all your habit patterns. By gently quieting your mind, and going directly to the cause of your issue, clinical hypnotherapy can guide your mind to let go of an unwanted habit or mental blocks, thereby reaching your goal.

Will I be in control during the session?
Yes, our clients report feeling in control of their thoughts, at ease with the process and aware of everything taking place during their sessions. As Dr. David Spiegel, Wilson Professor and Associate Chair of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine was recently quoted, in Yahoo Health News, as saying,

"Part of the mythology about hypnosis is that you're going to take over some ones mind. What you really do is teach people to take better control of their own mind and body."
During a hypnotherapy session, you enter a state of absorbed awareness, not unlike losing oneself in a good book or favorite piece of music.

Can anyone be hypnotized?
Yes. Our process is very simple and highly successful. What many do not realize, is that we go in and out of hypnosis all day long. When we daydream, that is a form of hypnosis. When we are driving our car and arrive at our destination, (realizing we gave it no conscious thought), that is hypnosis. Hypnosis is simply a state of mind where your conscious, or "busy" mind has quieted.

What are some of the issues that your clients have overcome?
Performance issues, (becoming better at a given sport), Weight Issues, Medical Conditions, (e.g., Restless Leg Syndrome, Ticks, Pre-Surgery anxiety, Pre-menopausal symptoms, (e.g., hot flashes, moodiness and sleeplessness), Anxiety, (or excessive worry thoughts), Chronic Pain, Addictions, (e.g., Alcohol dependency and Smoking), Anger Issues as well as Emotional Pain from past experiences.

I've heard that you have to go into a deep state to get the desired result, is this true?
No. On the contrary, most of our clients report being very aware, alert and present during their sessions, allowing them to be in control. Our specialized form of hypnotherapy allows people to be in either a very light state of relaxation or a very deep state. It does not effect the outcome of the therapy. We have worked with many clients who have only been in a light state of relaxation/hypnosis and still reached their desired goals.
