THE THERAPY

There are TWO entirely different treatments using hypnosis:

SUGGESTION THERAPY - ideally suited for treating the more simple problems such as smoking, nail biting, pre-test nerves, slimming, relaxation, confidence boosting etc. Suggestion therapy is usually effective immediately, and hence only one or sometimes two sessions would be required - with perhaps a booster at a later date.

ANALYTICAL THERAPY (Hypnoanalysis) - used to discover the CAUSE of psychological problems. (Both therapies can be combined during treatment, of course.)

Hypnoanalysis can be summarised briefly as the doctrine of 'cause and effect'; every effect (the symptom) must have a cause. Hypnoanalysis will find and release the cause of the problem - and hence the symptoms disappear. Emotional problems respond particularly well to hypnoanalysis. The object of analysis is to bring you to a 'moment of surprising and liberating enlightenment', and one can be fairly confident of a release within ten sessions of therapy. With analytical therapy, we are talking about a complete and lasting release, by finding and removing the originating causes - as opposed to mere control of symptoms by; dieting, anti-depressants, herbal remedies, smoking, drinking etc.

There is no reason why anyone should put up with something 'inside themselves but outside their control', provided they can devote time, money, effort and self-discipline to be free or their problem. The use of hypnosis dramatically 'speeds up' analytical therapy, and will achieve similar results in just a few weeks to those expected from a more conventional three or four year course of therapy.
