Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a wonderful way to deal with problems.  Often we are our own worst enemies and refuse steadfastly to help ourselves overcome issues that are affecting our lives on a daily basis.  We just carry on! Often for years.  Repeating the same patterns, over and over.  Change is difficult, and often resisted, even when we know making those changes will ultimately make life better.  This is why hypnotherapy is such a wonderful thing, because it enables us to do just that. It empowers us to make change, to improve ourselves and our lives, to become happier, more confident and ultimately more content within ourselves.

There are a wide variety of issues and problems and ailments that are successfully treated with hypnotherapy, so we can rest assured that there is much hope ahead.  The success rate when using hypnotherapy to treat habit reversal for example is staggering with a massive 97% proven success rate,  this is not just in the short term, but long term success also.  Depression, Anxiety, phobic responses, treatment to control IBS symptoms and pain management are all up there as the most responsive conditions to treat with Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy.The evidence base for quiting smoking using these techniques has proved Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy to be one if not the most succesful treatments, even surpassing NRT, however sadly the success rate is still relatively low in comparrison to treating other issues.  A long term successful outcome in my opinion, would rely greatly on the determination and motivation of the individual to quit. 

 Hypnotherapy requires more than one session.  However it is probably one of the briefest forms of psychological therapy, and in clinical studies the average number of sessions is around 4-6
