Q. WHAT IS HYPNOSIS?
A. Hypnosis Is When A Person's Mind Goes Into A State Of Trance. We Naturally Go Into A Trance Several Times A Day. Have You Ever Been So Absorbed In A Task At Work Or Home That You Have Become Oblivious To Everything Around You? That Is A State Of Trance. Have You Ever Driven Or Walked Somewhere And When You Reached Your Destination Found That You Had Forgotten The Journey, Because You Had Been Off In A Day-dream? That Too Is A State Of Trance. A Hypnotic State Is A Natural State Of Mind. It Is Something We Experience Pretty Much On A Daily Basis. In Hypnotherapy This Natural Ability Is Harnessed And Focused To Help People To Achieve Their Goals.

Q. ISN'T HYPNOSIS JUST A FORM OF MIND CONTROL?
A. All Hypnosis Is Self-hypnosis. What Is Meant By This Is That The Hypnotherapist Gives The Client Instructions On How To Think About Things And Imagine Things In A Particular Kind Of Way. If The Client Follows Those Instructions They Will Go Into A Hypnotic Trance State. If They Don't Follow Those Instructions They Won't. Once In A State Of Trance The Hypnotherapist Can Give The Client Positive Suggestions. The Client Can Then Choose To Accept Those Suggestions Or Reject Them. Likewise A Person Can Bring Themselves Out Of A Trance At Any Time If They Wish. Hypnosis Requires Co-operation Every Step Of The Way. Like The Ability To Do Gymnastics, Going Into A Trance Is A Skill, Which Can Become Better Over Time As The Person Practices And Become More Familiar With It.

Q. IS HYPNOSIS SLEEP?
A. Hypnosis Is Not Sleep. Milton Erickson A Medical Consultant And One Of The Most Famous, Successful And Effective Hypnotists Of The Twentieth Century, Defined Hypnosis As A 'single Pointed Focus Of Attention'. That Is Essentially What A Person Under Hypnosis Needs To Be Able To Do. Whether You Stare At A Point On The Wall, Whether You Are Focusing All Of Your Attention On The Sound Of A Person's Voice, Or Whether You Are Focusing All Of Your Attention To Listening To A Ticking Clock, All Of Those Things Will Take You Into A Relaxed, Focused State.

Q. WHAT DOES THE HYPNOSIS USED IN HYPNOTHERAPY FEEL LIKE?
A. Being In A State Of Trance Is A Personal Experience And So Is Difference For Every Person. However Most People Who Go For Hypnotherapy Report Feeling That Whilst In A Trance Their Body Felt Very Relaxed, A Bit Like Having Had A Whole Body Massage And That Their Mind Felt Very Calm And Focused. Most People Enjoy Going Into A State Of Trance, And Feel Much Better Afterwards.

Q. HOW CAN HYPNOTHERAPY HELP ME?
A. Hypnotherapy Can Be Used To Deal With A Wide Range Of Issues Including: Feeling Low, Feeling Anxious, Pain, Stress, High Blood Pressure, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Poor Or Disturbed Sleep, Test Anxiety, Job Interview Nerves, Smoking, Fear Of Public Speaking, A Low/compromised Immune System, Panic Attacks, Fears And Phobias, Lack Of Energy/motivation, Lack Of Confidence, And Feeling Stuck.
