Hypnotherapy goes back over 3000 yeas B.C. Modern hypnosis about two hundred years.
Hypnosis is a powerful and effective technique and is one of the oldest arts.
Hypnosis is not a therapy, rather therapy is conducted in hypnosis, which is called Hypno-psychotherapy
Hypnosis is a trance like state and everyone has the ability to enter into trance. Every day people slip into natural trance states when they become absorbed in watching the television or reading a book, using a computer or driving and just daydreaming.
Hypnotherapy/Psychotherapy is a treatment for mental and emotional problems, which uses hypnosis to help people. It works by lulling people into a state of relaxation that gives access to the subconscious mind. Hypnosis is the key that unlocks the door into the “power house” of thoughts, memories and emotions, namely the subconscious mind thereby giving access and power to use your brains own Bio-computer.
Stage Hypnosis
Mostly it is stage hypnosis that is the cause of many people’s fears.
Most stage hypnotists are very skilled at creating an illusion that they possess a mystery power that they can control people and they are skilled with their hypnotic techniques. it is a show, a performance
Stage hypnosis is a show, a performance
Stage Hypnosis is not Hypnotherapy.
A Hypnotist is someone who hypnotizes people.
A Hypnotherapist is a therapist that uses hypnoses to heal the mind.
A Hypno-analyst is a Hypnotherapist that finds the root cause of the problem that is presenting itself, there is always a cause.
There are two entirely different treatments using conscious hypnosis:
Suggestion Therapy which is used for simpler problems such as smoking, pre-test nerves, Weight control, relaxation, Confidence boosting etc and which requires one to three sessions with solution-focused hypnotherapy and free audiotape for reinforcement.
Analytical Psychotherapy- which is used to discover the causes of psychological problems (and of course I do mix the two therapies) Hypno-Analysis reveals and thus removes the cause and consequently relives the symptoms. Emotional problems respond particularly well to Hypno Analysis. The objective of analysis is to bring you to a moment of enlightenment and one can be fairly confident that a release will be obtained. There is no reason why anyone should put up with something inside themselves but outside their control.
“Actually, all effective therapy seems to involve Hypnotherapy.” Dr. Burton
