    When Will Hypnosis Be Beneficial?

    Clinical hypnosis has proven benefits in areas such as pain management, depression, insomnia, anxiety, weight lose. “Hypnosis is a state of consciousness involving focused attention and reduced peripheral awareness characterized by an enhanced capacity for response to suggestion” (Elkins, G.R.,Et al.,International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis, 2015) 

    The suggestions giving in the deeper state of relaxation enter in the subconscious mind. This is what sets hypnosis apart from meditation and mindfulness-based interventions. 

     “Hypnotherapy has some important advantages,” said Guy Montgomery, PhD, a professor of psychology and director of the Center for Behavioral Oncology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, who uses and studies clinical hypnosis for reducing pain in cancer patients. “Whereas meditation helps you accept a problem, hypnosis allows people to make changes to do something about the problem,” he said. 

    We believe that people who come for hypnosis treatment have some degree of motivation this is the first step of success, the rest is left to the professional hypnotherapist.

    Can Hypnotherapy help Children and Teens?

    Just like adults, children can have days where they feel anxious or even worse, depressed. It is also common for children to experience the feeling of anxiety, as they proceed through school and get to their teenage years. This is when the worry and stress over exams can  have a negative impact on their behavior, as well as the physical changes they have to go through when they hit puberty.

    Can Hypnotherapy help to recovered repressed memories?

    I recommend to go to a very professional hypnotherapist for recovered memories specially for traumas or memories with PTSD. All the years working with severe PTSD have giving me the expertise to work in the most carful manner using very fine techniques with hypnosis for some type of memories or EMDR for others. I will argue that experience, knowledge many hours and years of practice are required to help effectively more than just theory or few times helping people.
