Hypnotherapy

 Hypnotherapy is a heightened state of concentration, relaxation and focused attention guided by a trained, certified hypnotist or hypnotherapist. Hypnosis allows you to be more open to suggestions to making healthful changes in your perceptions, sensations, emotions, memories, thoughts or behaviors. When used for therapeutic approaches, specific suggestions and images given to people in a trance can alter their behavior in a positive manner. When in this state of hypnosis, you are more inclined to permanent change and more likely to be successful in making the lasting changes you desire. Hypnotherapy is helpful for treating stress and anxiety, gastrointestinal disorders, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress syndrome, phobias, relational conflicts, insomnia, asthma, hot flashes during menopause, depression and pain control.

How can Hypnotherapy help?

Hypnotherapy helps to target unwanted or unhealthy habits and possibly replace them with healthier behaviors. Although you're more open to suggestion during hypnosis, you don't lose control over your behavior during a hypnosis session, helping to truly discover new ideas about yourself in a controlled environment. This type of therapy is a great way to help your conscious and unconscious mind become in harmony with one another. Hypnotherapy provides a different approach to become in tune with yourself and take a deeper look into your subconscious to grow in ways that you never thought you could.
