Welcome to the Cumbria Hypnosis Clinic
I have referred several patients to see David Faratian because I believe he is one of the best in his field...
Dr S.Harris (General Practitioner)

Weight Loss Hypnotherapy
Gastric Band hypnosis is one of the most unheard of systems for reprogramming your relationship with food for effective and long lasting weight control. Visit our dedicated page to find out why it is so effective.
Treatment for Anxiety & Panic Attacks
Hypnotherapy has a proven track record when it comes to helping people neutralise and eliminate generalised anxiety disorders and panic attacks. Your can find out more detail here.
Hypnotherapy for Fear
When it comes to fear. Fear of flying, fear of spiders, fear of needles etc hypnosis and NLP can help rewire the neurology of the brain so that the physiological responses associated with fear (heart palpitations, sweating, nausea, tension) are effectively neutralised and replaced by a sense of control and calm. Find out more here
Gambling Hypnotherapy
Most gamblers are driven by the thrill of the win. Once the reward centre of the brain can be trained to 'feel no thrill' around any gambling activity, the pattern of behaviour can begin to change. Find out more here
Stress Management Hypnotherapy
Stress is a silent killer and very prolific in our society. Although it is as dangerous as smoking and alcohol abuse it is often underestimated. To relieve stress consciously is very difficult and is often treated through medication. The techniques we teach can powerfully combat what we refer to as latent or background stress naturally and medication free, which in turn can help with irregular blood pressure, sleep problems, daily functioning and even IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
Mindfulness
A growing area of alternative therapy is Mindfulness. The reason it is becoming more and more popular, in industry, in health and even in schools is because through mindfulness you can learn to achieve a mental state which is focused only on the present regardless of what might be a natural tendency to worry about the future. This can be incredibly helpful when dealing with most forms of stress and anxiety disorders, whether in the work place or just more generally in life.

David has absolutely changed my life. The person who walked in on the first session to the person who walked out on my last session are two completely different people! I can’t thank David enough for all he has taught me about myself! After trying every option from doctors to counsellors and then being recommended Cumbria hypnotherapy I went into this a little skeptical wether it would work for me as nothing else had but I was very open to learning about it all.. and I’m so glad I did it! Can’t recommend David enough! The continued support David shows not only during your sessions but through your whole journey is something special! Thank you David for everything!
Faye, Barrow-in-Furness
I started my sessions with David 20 months ago, and today I had my last. David supported me throughout for a huge variety of things that I came to him with. From physical symptoms of stress such as chronic migraines and IBS, to depression and anxiety, to work and family/relationship worries; David helped me to work through it all and helped me to change my way of life. Fantastic service from start to finish, and even supported me in being proactive by ensuring I had ‘homework’. Incredibly grateful for what I’ve learned, and coming away from the experience a different person. Thank you again!
Helena, Keswick, Cumbria
Every appointment he has made me feel at ease, reassured and I always come out feeling refreshed and amazing after it, with a new outlook on life I will forever be grateful for Davids help as I feel much more relaxed, confidant and overcoming anxieties I have had for many years and doing things which I couldn't ever imagine myself doing. Would recommend to anyone. RE: Fear of Enclosed Spaces (Claustrophobia)
Emma Sykes, Barrow
David has been the most wonderful support in a time in my life when I needed it the most. He showed empathy when speaking about my cancer diagnosis and discussed all of my concerns to ensure he could help me in the best possible way. Each session was personalised to my needs and included but was not limited to tai chi, mindfulness, meditation, breathing exercises and Emotional Freedom Techniques. Every area of the therapy helped to clear my anxieties and tune my body and mind to a better way of thinking and in turn a better quality of life. I only wish everyone could experience hypnotherapy for themselves, as I cannot thank David enough.
RE:Anxiety
Carla, Ulverston
I didn't know what to expect from hypnosis but David's approach certainly exceeded my expectations! I had some very profound experiences during the sessions and definite healing shifts in my psyche and the effects continue conscioualy and subconsciously! I intend to use the tools I've been taught to further my personal journey and I will be ever grateful to have had this opportunity to work with such a personable therapist. RE: Anxiety
Joanna, Ulverston
I have had such a profound experience with David. I came to him with fear and anxiety plus previous panic attacks. In the short space of time I have worked with him I can’t believe how far I’ve come. Not only do we do the work on changing the patterns in my mind I also have tools to use outside of those sessions. I cannot thank and recommend David enough!n RE: Panic attacks phobia management
Kelly, Barrow-in-Furness
I cant put into words how my sessions with David have turned my life around, my weight has dropped and my confidence has grown. Would definitely recommend, dont just think about it, do it. re: Weight Loss Hypnosis
Sara Zirkel, Carnforth
Fantastic professional service from David, from the first phone call every step of the way. Outstanding results from the sessions i recieved for a food phobia. Recommended by a neighbour who had phenomenal results for a different reason. No looking back now, thank you David.
RE: Phobia of eating new foods
Amber Sullivan (Whitehaven, Cumbria)
My daughter had a phobia of dogs which really limited everything we could do. I knew as soon as I’d spoken to David that this was what we needed to do. David was professional, polite and immediately put Millie at ease. Her phobia meant that she hadn’t been to her grandad’s house for 2 years since he’d got a dog. After 3 sessions Millie walked David’s dog and the very next day she went to visit her grandad and walked his dog too! I can’t recommend David and hypnotherapy enough. My only regret is not doing it sooner. Thank you David.
Rowan Walker (Barrow, Cumbria)
David was fantastic throughout my therapy, very understanding. He has change my life and how I approach it, before I came to see him I couldn't see away forward and now I can happily move on with the rest of my life! Thank you David you're truly amazing. RE: OCD
Claire Manson (Lancaster, Lancashire)
Hi I am 53 years old and have had various difficulties since I was 15, I have tried lots of different procedures over the years and nothing has worked, poor sleep and bad anxiety to name a few ,through google my daughter picked out David after reading about him and I agreed to contact him, In only 3 months with David I can honestly say the difference is incredible, I now have the tools to deal with all my problems and I am continuing to to this every day ,it has really opened my eyes to how you can live your life in a much better peaceful way.
I found David to be very professional in what he does. He is respectful,courteous and is very easy to work with, I would have no hesitation in recommending him to you as long as you are aware you have to put the effort in too,he is a true gentleman.
Simon Harrison (Carlisle, Cumbria)
A very professional service which has helped me immensely and given me tools that I can continue to use now and in the future. RE: Sexual Anxiety
Sarah (Ulverston, Cumbria)

With ,my sessions complete now I can truly say I feel comfortable going places without any worries and if a minor blip did occur I now have the tools and information to not worry and deal with it.

Colette (Cleator Moor, Cumbria)
When I first attended Cumbria Hypnosis I was extremely anxious and was struggling to cope with everyday life. David Faratian was very kind and insightful when I described how I was feeling. He tailored the sessions to meet my needs and very soon I was feeling stronger and more able to cope. I greatly appreciated the mindfulness techniques that he taught me and I continue to use them each day…. RE: Generalised Anxiety Disorder
Caroline (Lancaster, Lancashire)
I have never tried hypnosis until now but I highly recommend it to anyone you may feel it I'll help them, it has certainly helped me and made me look at myself and my life differently.
RE: Gastricband Hypnotherapy
Laura (Holmrook, Cumbria)

David was very professional, clearly executed, and excellent customer manner which achieved instant and rather mind-blowing results. Many thanks indeed." RE: Virtual gastric band
Jude (Carlisle, Cumbria)
I have changed my pattern of eating and lost weight with no effort. An added bonus for me has been pain relief from a chronic back condition as I listen to the relaxation tapes. I am only part way through the programme so hope to continue to loose weight.
Vanessa (Carlisle, Cumbria)
I would reccomend anyone with anxiety to visit David, for years I have had really bad anxiety to the extent where I would get heart palpitations, short of breathe, negative thoughts I felt like I wasn't a normal person I felt trapped and I'm going to be mentally ill for the rest of my life, but David has helped me overcome it all! I never knew it would have been possible, I think much more positive and no longer have anxiety attacks I feel like a new person and normal again honestly don't knock hypnotherapy before you try it, I did and I was wrong it's amazing
Connor (Barrow, Cumbria)
I was amazed at how quickly it helped me to stop with my gambling addiction, I would recommend and have recommended this service to others and not just for the reason that I attended, I think if you want to stop something and find it difficult due to addiction it is very hard but using this service was almost immediate. I am very happy with the results that I have from using this service and would say be open minded about it this is not like a hypnotist you see on TV or a stage this is totally different and does change mind sets, a great experience for me.
Tony (Cockermouth, Cumbria)
I found David really easy to talk to and when I was making my appointment he put my mind at ease and he explained everything to me . By the time we had talked on the phone for half an hour I was really looking forward to my first session. I have had 3 sessions now and I am really happy with my progress 6 lb lighter in 2 weeks and my eating habits are a lot better . Definitely recommend it. RE: Gastric Band Hypnosis.

Connor (Barrow, Cumbria)
Hi Dave, I had suffered with insomnia and not sleeping for longer than I can remember. Thanks to your techniques I have finally managed a whole month (since our first session) of sleeping without any issues. My head touches the pillow and using your video rehearsal method I slow down my thoughts and switch off. Can't thank you enough. I'm recommending you to all my friends and family. Have a lovely Christmas x
Sarah J (Workington, Cumbria)

Paul (Millom, Cumbria)
“Thank you David for helping to free me from my addiction! I have to admit that I went into this treatment as a slight sceptic and more as a last resort and now I can't believe how this has changed my life. Even though I was completely aware of what was happening during our sessions, my mind set has totally been changed. The word "free" is how I feel and I love it. Once you are given the tools to open your mind, I was then open to the re-programming of my thought processes which I know will be life changing going forward. Thank you so much.
Kindest regards” RE: PTSD and GAD
Linda (Barrow, Cumbria)
“I have been so happy with results from the first session. It helped enormously with some long standing issues. I would highly recommend David’s treatment, particularly if other approaches have not worked.” RE: OCD

I have learned that I may have to accept pain as part of my life but I can control how much it affects my life. Thanks David" RE: Pain management hypnotherapy and mindfulness
Bill J (Lancaster, Lancashire)
I started seeing David for weight loss, at the end of January '17, it is now the end of April and I have lost 2st 8lb without even trying. With Davids help I have been able to change the relationship I have with food, once a person who would snack all day on sweets and crisps, eat all the wrong types of foods, I now don't snack, and my meals are a lot healthier than they were.
So my advice to anyone reading this that wants to lose weight, throw away the slimming world magazines, and weight watchers point calculators, and give David a call, you will be surprised at the change he can make in your life, I know I was. RE: Weight Management Hypnotherapy
Diane (Whitehaven, Cumbria)
David was really understanding and made me feel as ease during the sessions. The voice notes through Dropbox helped massively. 3 sessions of hypotherapy has been a huge success. I would 100% recommend David - RE: Food Anxiety
Katie (Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria)
This has been a great experience for me, not only the hypnotherapy, but the psychological side of my relationship with food, so far it has changed the way I look at food and the way I eat, and already I have experienced weight loss, and feel that this is the way forward for me. David fully understands my problems and deals with this without judgment, he makes you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the whole process. RE: Gastricband Hypnosis
Diane (Whitehaven, Cumbria)
I don't have the issues with dogs before the sessions it has worked very well for me RE: Fear of dogs
Phil (Ulverston, Cumbria)
I can not recommend the Cumbria Hypnosis Habit Change Clinic highly enough. Before I went to see David I was stuck in a constant cycle of yo-yo dieting. Six months since I began seeing David I have lost an amazing 3 stone 8 pounds, and I am still losing.
I now have a new outlook on life, I have more energy and I can wear what I want! Thank you so much David. RE: Gastricband Hypnotherapy
Kathryn (Kendal, Cumbria)
I really thought It wouldn't work because I am stubborn and felt that this perhaps was just going to be another failure. In a short space of time I have lost 11lbs without thinking. It just works for me. I have learnt to release my addictions and not give in to them. RE: Gastricband Hypnosis / Weight control
Dion (Kendal, Cumbria)
I found the atmosphere approachable and interactive. Having never experienced anything like this before it was also extremely informative and will definitely be interested in coming back with any other issues in the future RE: Exam Anxiety
Lewis (Kendal, Cumbria)
"David just wanted to let you know that since my last visit with you I have now lost 6.2stone. No idea how you did it but all I know is I am where I am and will be eternally grateful. Cheers! RE: Weight control hypnotherapy
Paul (Lancaster, Lancashire)
Thank you for everything and a feeling of freedom from my addiction. I could only give positive comments about the service I received and would recommend anyone who needs help. Do not think about it, pick up the phone and book an appointment. RE: Gambling
John (Ulverston, Cumbria)
Very pleased with how it went, defiantly would recommend to anyone with any issues!
RE: Social Anxiety /Confidence
Daniel (Carlisle, Cumbria)
My experience with Cumbria Hypnosis was excellent. I was a little apprehensive at first, but David put me totally at ease and gave me the confidence I needed to undertake my hypnotherapy course. Everything is going well so far and I would not hesitate to recommend David to anyone who is thinking of undergoing hypnotherapy. RE: Gastric Band Hypnosis
Richard (Lancaster, Cumbria)
My issues were totally addressed from beginning to end. I had a sniffing problem for 25 years which is now very nearly none existent . I would recommend to anybody. It has changed my life!
RE: Sniffing habit
Stewart (Carlisle, Cumbria)
The sessions with Cumbria Hypnosis have improved my fear of certain situations out horse riding and have allowed me to enjoy it again.
RE: Fear of horse riding
Debbie (Kendal, Cumbria)
I have had emetophobia fo ten years plus, and by this point never thought I would be cured but Cumbria hypnosis has helped me so much and I would certainly recommend to anyone who isn't sure of what hypnotherapy may entail.
RE: Fear of vomiting
Chelsee (Carlisle, Cumbria)
I feel I can now go forward with confidence to experience the not only special occasions but also the everyday things which to "normal" people would be the mundane when coping with not having two feet on the ground. These things which in the past were beyond my abilities.
RE: Fear of Heights
Jim (Windermere, Cumbria)
I would recommend this as this has changed my life and made me be able to lead my normal life again instead of being scared to leave the house and not wasting to be here anymore because it was controlling my life. Have been able to to go back to work, carry on with my driving lessons and go out on my own again. I feel so much happier than I have before and that's all down to my hypnotherapy sessions off Cumbria Hypnosis. I can't thank him enough for helping me get my life back RE: Panic Attacks
Stephanie (Barrow, Cumbria)
I had tried hypnosis before and it had not worked, in desperation I thought I would give it another try and I pleased I did. I am now doing things that I didn't believe I would every do again, things most people take for granted RE: Fear of driving
Aidan (Whitehaven, Cumbria)
It was excellent service and really changed my way of thinking about food. RE: Weight Control
Debra (Cockermouth, Cumbria)
I can't believe have differently I feel and think about certain things that I never use to in the past. I find my mind set as changed completely, I don't know how this works but it really does, I really recommend anybody out their will troubles to try this. RE: Gambling
David (Carlisle, Cumbria)
Cumbria hypnosis helped me to realise where my phobia had stemmed from and helped me put into place tactics and strategies to overcome all of the things that made me feel anxious. Week by week I could see the things we have practiced in the sessions working and could use them in context. I can do so much more than I thought I could do at the start of the sessions and feel so much happier in myself. I feel like these sessions are the prologue of a life which I now can enjoy without being trapped with my phobia. RE: Fear of blood
Molly (Dalton, Cumbria)
I never thought I'd be able to rid myself of anxiety I've been medicated but even that didn't stop it. I felt lost and scared the anxiety would only go if I ended my life, I have two young girls and couldn't put them through doing that and a friend recommended hypnosis it has changed my life, I'm not anxious scared or ashamed of myself I am now calm happy and excited for my future I can't thank David (Cumbria Hypnosis) enough RE: Panic Attacks

Nina (Barrow, Cumbria)

RE: Weight Loss Hypnotherapy
Pamela (Barrow, Cumbria)
A Great experience with Cumbria Hypnosis, which gave me a new perspective with which to view my phobia. Once I was able to recognise my mind 'telling' me to be afraid, I could overpower the feeling. RE: Fear of spiders

Molly (Ulverston, Cumbria)
Prior to starting my sessions I was still very unsure of what the effect or outcome would be for me. I am pleased to say that the results have made a huge difference to both my private life and mostly to my professional life. I would say that the balance has been corrected resulting in a less stressful life style. re: Stress & Anxiety therapy
Steve (Dalton-in-Furness, Cumbria)
The results have been amazing and life changing. I came with healthy sceptism but have been proved wrong, this really works! RE: SCRT Gastric Band Hypnotherapy
Paul (Carlisle, Cumbria)
For the first time in 40 odd years... thanks to you 7 months since my first session I am nearly 4.5 stone lighter and am not dieting. I've been on holiday, had Xmas, eaten out etc all without the need to "treat" myself with puddings, cakes etc and have even came out of the Xmas break 3 lbs lighter. The work we did isn't "wearing off" as I feared - it's now just how I am - sorted and in control. Thank you so much. Please feel free to share this if you would like. All the best for the new year
Lesley (Dalton, Cumbria)
Visiting David came at just the right time. I had been suffering from many forms of anxiety for a long period of time. David tailored his support specifically to my needs and was able to tackle each issue head on. I cannot thank David enough for how this has enabled me to let go. RE: PTSD and Anxiety

I now feel empowered to move on with my life which is something I never thought I would be able to do again. All thoughts which used to change me and upset me are now replaced with new positive emotions. Would recommend to anybody even skeptics and would definitely return myself with other issues. Can't thank David enough. (Reference to anxiety around negative memories)

Absolutely blown away. I feel like a different person thank you so so much. (Reference to Gastric Band Hypnotherapy)

Don't take my word for it.If you need proof see David at cumbria hypnosis you will be amazed beyond anything else you have ever done!!!!!

David is great. He has really helped me overcome my fear of spiders. I used to run a mile when I saw a spider but for some reason now thinking about them doesn't make me feel at all anxious.
Jen (Carlisle, Cumbria)
I walked in a sceptic but with the help and guidance David has given me, not only have I lost weight and begun to feel better about myself but I now totally believe in the benefits of hypnotherapy- many thanks David
Matt (Barrow, Cumbria)
David was fantastic with my son. He was extremely worried about attending but once there really enjoyed the sessions and gave him tools for the future. Thank you
Louise (Penrith, Cumbria)
Been to see David twice now and both times he has successfully helped me to combat my poor eating habits and to lose weight in a healthy and effective way. Would recommend him to anyone who is seeking help and is willing to give hypnosis a go.
Angela (Clitheroe, Lancashire)
Very professional service. It has definitely helped and I would highly recommend the service to anybody.
Dan (Barrow, Cumbria)
Very happy that I'm starting a new life with lots of adventures. I have found hypnosis remarkable. Thank you David.
Christine (Barrow, Cumbria)
Outstanding service from consultation to treatment I now look forward to my holidays something I never thought possible
Peter (Workington, Cumbria)
Mr Faratian has an exquisite understanding of the mind and how it deals or doesn't deal with certain issues. Mr Faratian manages to get to the real issue and deal with it with ease and expertise. I believe he offers empowerment that is long lasting and not a quick fix I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND HIS METHODS TO ANYONE
Catherine (Barrow, Cumbria)
Following my recent visits with David for hypnotherapy at Cumbria Hypnosis, found it to be an exceptional professional experience.Took time to listen to my issues
Visited 3 times immediate difference after 1st session built on this with two more.
Got my life back feeling relaxed and nothing is going to hold me back anymore.
Would have no hesitation in recommending Cumbria Hypnosis.
Thank you David
Regards.

It was my last resort having tried numerous diets and to my amazement still not sure how it works but I have learnt how to eat properly and enjoy my food but also how to be less stressed so for me it has been a double blessing and I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. It has changed my life for the better and I have lost 9lbs in 3 weeks with no effort whatsoever.
Angela (Carlisle, Cumbria)
What can I say except WOW. Really does work i have lost weight after years of trying with any effort and not missed the foods i used to crave. Would recommend this highly, please try it.
Tracey (Carlisle, Cumbria)
David is lovely, very dedicated and listens carefully. I found this reassuring as I was extremely nervous at first but after the first session I was at total ease. I have lost weight with not even thinking about it and it's only my 3rd week. I would recommend this to anyone with an issue. Many thanks David and I will keep in touch x
Michelle (Windermere, Cumbria)
I had tried everything possible with the fear of flying I had from drugs, alcohol and a mixture of both. Nothing worked and I'd almost given up when someone asked had I tried hypnosis. At this point I searched online and found the Cumbria hypnosis clinic and the next is history, looking forward to my summer holiday this august ...all I can say is try it before your fear takes hold of your life
Teresa (Barrow, Cumbria)
You're going to get extremely bored of me! I have lost a total of 19lbs! Sooooo happy! I've re-read the secret (again!) and every morning I count my blessings. Life is good! x

Hi David,
Thank you for your message and your help over the last weeks. I have indeed found the service of benefit and expect it to continue to provide these benefits.... I am sure we will meet again in some fashion but in the meantime many thanks again; take care and best wishes.
Robert (Barrow, Cumbria)
My life was in a downward spiral because of gambling and I had tried everything from quitting cold turkey to Gamcare and even counselling. This has been the only thing which has changed my attitude. I really don't understand how it has worked but the results have been amazing and I finally have my life back on track
Josh (Penrith, Cumbria)
I m really happy with what I have achieved so far. I have lost 1.5 Stone in the first two weeks. I will be returning for help on stopping smoking in the near future"
Cassie (Whitehaven, Cumbria)
I'm 2 stone down from when we first spoke and it has really made me feel good when people this week have commented on it. I have told people about you Cumbria Hypnosis and said they should give you a try, I'm glad I did because I feel it has been very positive! May have to try and get you to help me give up my Landrover's, Maybe I'm not ready for that!

2 months ago I came to see David about my negative outlook on life. I was slowly ruining my relationship and felt helpless. Through my work with David I now feel in control and I have completely switched my view of the world. I feel brighter and more optimistic than ever before. Two words life changing!
Sally - Lancaster
Hi David, Thank you very much for helping me overcome my problem with flying. For years I felt unable to travel with my family and was beginning to think I would never leave the UK again. Since having hypnotherapy I feel so relaxed about being on a plane. Don't know what you did exactly but I am so much happier ps my wife Angie says thanks too.
Brian - Dalton-in-Furness
To cut a long story short, I have had two sessions with Cumbria Hypnosis and since then, I have lost 46 KG in weight, 12" on my waist, and have so much energy I don't know what to do with it......
Scott from Windemere

What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is an altered but completely natural state of consciousness which you can enter into for therapeutic purposes so that beneficial suggestions may be given directly to your unconscious mind. The ‘deeper’ you relax the more you are able to deal with your condition effectively. While you are relaxed the right hand side of the brain which is associated with imagination becomes very active and can be guided to change your perceptions which can then help you meet most challenges. Hypnosis is safe, enjoyable and very effective but mostly mis-understood thanks to stage shows and Hollywood
Does hypnosis really work?
Like with anything in life there are no guarantees. Hypnotherapy is not a magic bullet or the Holy grail but should be regarded as a vehicle for change, and requires the subject to have two abilities. The first and most important of these is a good imagination. Much of the therapy requires the subject to be able to visualise or perceive pictures in their mind. Everyone has this ability to lesser or greater degree but only 85% of people can truly engage with their inner thoughts. Secondly the subject must be suggestible for the therapy to be most effective.
The good news is that these qualities can be tested very easily before treatment begins. Cumbria Hypnosis exclusively offers the guarantee that if you make an appointment and are not a suitable subject then there is absolutely No Charge. If you are unsure then simply contact David Faratian directly to discuss whether this is the right path for you.
What should I do next?
Cumbria Hypnosis offers a range of options to suit your needs. Based in Barrow-in-Furness, qualified and experienced hypnotherapist David Faratian serves Ulverston, Dalton-in-Furness, Kendal, Whitehaven, Workington, Penrith, Windermere, Lancaster and Preston. We offer daytime, evening and periodic weekend clinics to suit your schedule. If you are unsure please contact us directly on 0797 4319510 or via our online support chat at the bottom of this page. If we are unavailable please leave a message and we will get back to you within 24hrs.
Can I trust hypnotherapy to help me?
The psychology of Hypnosis has been around for literally centuries, but is only now being recognised by medical practitioners in the National Health Service, where it is being successfully used to control a full range of conditions including cancer. Millions of people are using hypnosis and hypnotherapy to stop smoking, lose weight, and to conquer their fears, such as fear of flying and of course to deal with anxiety and stress which can lead to hypertension. Positive thoughts result in positive re-actions, which bring positive success and achievement. Hypnosis accesses the creative unconscious part of your mind, where there is no challenge or resistance to new ideas and concepts, and where the mind becomes receptive and responsive in such a way that it can absorb these new ideas and concepts quickly and easily without editing. For this reason the treatment can be much more effective, and produces longer lasting results than with many other alternative forms of therapy.
Will I lose control through hypnosis?
Most definitely NO. Hypnosis is often misunderstood thanks to stage shows and Hollywood films. You are always aware. Hypnosis can be broken at any time, you will still be able to hear everything, respond with complete conscious awareness. Imagine how it feels when you are driving, watching TV or reading a book. The feeling of trance is not dissimilar to that experience.
