Hypnotherapy is a serious science, revealing the brain’s ability to heal medical and psychiatric conditions. Hypnosis is the oldest Western form of psychotherapy. It is a very powerful means of changing the way we use our minds to control perception and our bodies. Clinical research has shown that it can help relieve pain and anxiety and aid smoking cessation, weight loss, and sleep. It can help children and adolescents better regulate their feelings and behaviors. Some people can even use ” self-hypnosis)“ to manage stress, cope with life’s challenges, and improve their physical and emotional health.
Treatment of Phobias and Anxiety
Cognitive hypnotherapy (CH), rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with the addition of hypnosis, focuses on the ways in which individuals think and act in specific circumstances, and how emotional and behavioral problems may be overcome. When CBT is used in combination with hypnotherapy, it can enhance the effect of the therapy and reduce the time of the therapy sessions. This is because when hypnotherapy is used, the body and the brain fall into a relaxed state with the help of the therapist. When these treatments are combined, cognitive behavioral hypnotherapy CBH can improve the management of anxiety disorders and phobias. There is a long list of successful results such as test anxiety, job interview anxiety, public speaking anxiety, sexual performance anxiety, and phobias such as airplane phobia, school phobia, agoraphobia (leaving your home or entering a crowded place), and post-traumatic stress disorder and cessation of smoking.
