FAQ
How does hypnotherapy work?
Typically when therapists work with their patients using traditional methods, they spend much of their time simply trying to get past mental blockages to understand the subconscious reasons for their patients’ issues. However, hypnotherapy uses hypnotic trance (really just a method of guided imagery to induce deep relaxation) as a method for accessing the subconscious. In doing this, it allows the therapist to gather a better understanding of the core reasons that someone’s issues may be manifesting. So, unlike traditional talk therapy, which requires hours, weeks, and even years to figure out what the subconscious is doing, hypnotherapy creates a tunnel directly into the subconscious so that lasting healing can occur more efficiently.
Does hypnotherapy work?
Why yes! Many professional organizations have consistently reported the value of hypnotherapy. In the 1950’s, both the British Medical Association and the American Medical Association confirmed the efficacy of hypnotherapy as official policy. They claimed: “For the past hundred years there has been an abundance of evidence that psychological and physiological changes could be produced by hypnotism which were worth study on their own account, and also that such changes might be of great service in the treatment of patients.” In 2003, Harvard Medical School did a study on hypnosis and recovery time after surgery. The study showed that after six weeks of hypnosis after an ankle fracture, the group who received hypnotherapy healed their bone fractures 41% faster. An analysis of five weight loss studies in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology in 1996 showed that the “…weight loss reported in the five studies indicates that hypnosis can more than double the effects” of traditional weight loss approaches.
Will I lose control during hypnotherapy?
No, because hypnosis is simply a state of deep, relaxed focus. A hypnotized person always has control and can always hear what’s going on. It is a natural state that you enter at least twice a day (while waking up and while falling asleep) and for most people, occurs much more often than twice on a daily basis. While undergoing hypnotherapy, clients have the ability to communicate with their therapist and express any requests they may have. Experienced hypnotherapists are constantly verifying the comfort level of the client in trance.
Why does hypnotherapy work so well?
The subconscious mind is where we store everything that has ever happened in our lives. Therefore, it is much more efficient to do therapy while in the subconscious state, using hypnotherapy to access these moments in our lives that have impacted us. This results in greater awareness around one’s issues. With this awareness comes the ability to recognize the cause of behaviors that one desires to change.
How is hypnotherapy different from traditional methods?
The core difference between hypnotherapy and other methods is depth and speed. Using hypnotherapy techniques like relaxation, guided imagery, and the trance state, therapists are able to access the subconscious more quickly than traditional methods. Traditional methods may take weeks, months, or years to uncover the subconscious reasons behind issues that are manifesting in clients. With hypnotherapy, these reasons can be found in as little as one session.
