The Benefits of Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy
You probably already know that hypnosis is a powerful tool that can be used to help people overcome fears, phobias, and addictions such as smoking and vaping.
But did you know that it is also used to treat overwhelm/stress, reduce anxiety, improve sleep, increase motivation & confidence, manage weight, and ease symptoms of the Menopause?
Hypnosis and hypnotherapy have many benefits including:
Reducing Stress, Anxiety & PTSD
Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy can be deeply relaxing; calming the mind and taming the stress response. When we are stressed, we release the hormone cortisol, and too much cortisol over long periods of time can have negative effects on our overall health.
When we are relaxed, we activate the parasympathetic nervous system, and the body’s “rest and digest” response, this allows the body to relax and stress to melt away.
Increasing Confidence & Motivation
Using hypnotic suggestion, we can overcome limiting beliefs and unhelpful thought patterns that hold us back and keep us stuck. From there we can feel more motivation to accomplish our goals.
Stop Smoking and Vaping
A natural alternative to stop smoking and vaping. When we access the subconscious mind, a hypnotherapist can help the client to overcome the addiction and cravings associated with smoking and vaping.

Eliminating Fears and Phobias
Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy are well-known treatments for fears and phobias and can be effective tools to help reprogram the subconscious mind, where the phobic template is stored. By reframing the thought, feelings, and emotions around the phobia, we can transform the fear response.
Better Health & Weight Loss
We can utilise the subconscious mind to stop emotional eating and other unhealthy eating habits. By breaking the chain of old behaviours and encouraging new more helpful habits, we can release unwanted weight without dieting. When we change negative self-talk, we can create a more positive self-image and make positive life-style changes that encourage a healthy weight.
Banishing Insomnia & Better Sleep
Want to calm those 3 AM anxiety spirals or just fall asleep fast? Try Hypnosis. When in the hypnotic state, brain waves slow down, shifting down from active alert beta waves to slower alpha and theta waves present during relaxation and sleep. Shifting brain activity in this way can help quiet the mind, so you can drift off to sleep.
Easing the Symptoms of the Menopause
Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy can help manage the symptoms of peri-menopause and menopause in a completely natural way. In clinical trials, hypnotherapy has been shown to alleviate hot flushes by up to an incredible 74%, in addition to helping mood, sleep and sexual function.
Hypnosis can reprogram the subconscious mind to eliminate negative thinking, emotions, and self-defeating behaviours that can hold us back. Additionally, hypnosis has the ability to effect brain activity and rewire neural pathways by increasing the activity in the logical part of our mind, the prefrontal cortex (decision-making and problem-solving) and decrease activity in the primitive survival parts of the brain, including the amygdala (responsible for the fight, flight, freeze, fawn response). Not only that but hypnosis has the ability to increase production of dopamine and serotonin, neurotransmitters we associate with motivation, pleasure, and good feelings which can enhance confidence, focus, motivation, boost our mood, help us sleep, manage addictions, and change our perceptions.
