Treatment that is tailored for YOU

When clients seek treatment they are not usually interested in the mechanics of the techniques which are used - they just want to get better as quickly as possible. Whether their problems are emotional, mental, physical, spiritual or sometimes just practical, all they really want is a solution , and to find the elusive Inner Peace that comes with good health, happiness, contentment and fulfilment.

We provide the very best treatment solution for you and your particular problem. Our approach is totally holistic. Your treatment will be tailored individually for you, to get to the root of what is disrupting your wellbeing, and bring about permanent change as swiftly as we can. We work with the latest and most effective therapy techniques, some of which can work so fast that it seems incredible that you should have suffered so unnecessarily up to this point in time .

The emerging science of Quantum Physics has proven beyond all doubt, that all illness and dis-ease begins in the mind (see ‘The Biology of Belief by Dr Bruce Lipton). When we work together you will soon discover that deep within you lies a belief, a memory, or an emotional block that you are completely unaware of yet is the cause of what you are now experiencing.

If you are mildly curious about the techniques we use, you will find short, easy-to-understand descriptions about most of them in the Therapies section. (link to Therapies section) But, rest assured, you do not need to understand anything at all to feel the benefit of the effectiveness of these wonderful ‘tools’

Why do I have this problem?

Right now, you are consciously aware of your problem, but you are unlikely to know what the underlying negative emotion or belief is that is causing it. That is because the limiting beliefs and feelings associated with it are hidden deep in your unconscious mind where, like a computer’s software, they are influencing what is happening to you. Your brain is the most powerful computer in the Universe, and your unconscious mind is a massive database of stored memories, fears, past experiences, and automatic behaviours and responses. All it takes is one small thing which it vaguely recognises to trigger off what seems like a new illness or problem. This might be anything from depression, overeating, panic attacks, an irrational response such as extreme anger, excessive pain in the body, even low confidence or lack of interest in your day to day tasks.

The solution

All our work is solution-focused . Whether you come to stop smoking ( link to Smoking Page ) , to regain your self worth after a difficult relationship, to find relief from backache, to cure a phobia, to get a grip on the demons that seem to come out of nowhere and stop you getting where you want to be, or any one of hundreds of other reasons you might need help, our aim is to help youachieve your desired outcome in the shortest possible time using the most appropriate techniques.

The list below lists some of the commonest reasons why people consult a Hypnotherapist. There are many others. We are very happy to discuss your particular needs with you, and offer a FREE 30-minute consultation, by phone or face to face. In some cases both of these.

A – Z ( definitely not an exhaustive list)

Anxiety

There are so many variations of anxiety, with differing causes and symptoms. All create misery for the sufferer and will eventually lead to symptoms and illness that the sufferer may not link with their anxiety. A simple definition for Anxiety could be ‘an unpleasant emotional state consisting of unwanted physical and mental responses’ to ‘an anticipation of unreal or imagined danger’. Anxiety can be eliminated by discovering its source, working through any past event that is connected, and releasing all negative emotions and beliefs connected to what is often an irrational fear. Treatment is designed for each client and drawn from several techniques to get a positive result as quickly as possible. More than one session may be needed, but relief will be felt from the first .

Back Pain

Many people with back pain will remember an accident or some other incident that began the problem and assume that this is why they now have pain. Yet, pain is a symptom of something much deeper. There is almost certainly deeply held negative beliefs or emotions attached to that pain. This is why it seems worse in time of stress. Back pain, or pain anywhere in the body, is a signal that something needs to be dealt with. We can help relieve your pain by finding out why it is there and getting rid of the deeply held issues.

Blushing

This condition, associated with feelings of embarrassment, confusion or shame, is a double edged sword for, as most sufferers know, the fear of blushing is often a bigger problem than the actual reddening of the face and/or neck that results. Treatment will help in reducing or removing the blushing response, improve confidence in situations where blushing might occur, and even enhance assertiveness.

Bruxism (Teeth Grinding)

In most sufferers this happens mostly at night. Treatment can help to relieve/eliminate the habitual clench response, and help the client to deal with stress or anger issues that may be the underlying problem. Confidence and the ability to deal more effectively with day to day stress and communication is also helpful in eliminating this condition.

Bulimia
As with all eating disorders there is almost certainly underlying emotional issues and stress associated with the condition. Treatment would involve releasing connected negative emotions and beliefs; reducing the stress levels, improving self-image and increasing confidence, and disconnecting any associations between weight and self worth.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

This can usually be traced back to negative and limiting data stored in the memory, such as a childhood incident or trauma. Often, seen from the adult perspective the event might seem unimportant. Hypnotherapy allows us to transform these old blocks and allows swift healing to take place. Reiki is also very powerful in helping this condition.

Driving Confidence

Whether this be to pass a driving test, to drive in particular road conditions, to drive overseas, to regain confidence after a road traffic accident, or just to start the whole process of being a driver, your fears will be banished and confidence in your own ability to drive a car safely and skilfully and in a relaxed manner will be instilled.

Fears

Fear can prevent us enjoying life. We all feel fear at times, and often we do not recognise the fear for what it is, such is the complexity of our unconscious mind. There is never a ‘stupid’ or ‘silly’ fear. If you have fear it is dominating your life and will eventually become a physical health issue. Yet, fears can be cleared in a few minutes, once they are identified, leaving you lighter and freer – a whole weight lifted off your shoulders! You’ll feel more confident, in control of your life again. Once fears are removed along with any limiting beliefs that may accompany them, just see how soon you feel a whole lot better. More …..

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

This condition affects many people every year, and can make life miserable for them. The condition is largely stress-related, and can be relieved very quickly with Hypnotherapy. Usually, only two treatments are needed.

Obsessive Behaviour

There are many degrees of severity with obsessive behaviour, with the most common condition being known as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder or OCD. The condition is responsive to therapy and frees up the sufferer in a purely holistic way. Treatment would involve releasing underlying emotional issues connected to the onset of the habit; dissolving the pattern and reprogramming to achieve the desired result; building confidence and self esteem.

Overeating/Binging

As with all eating disorders, there is almost certainly an underlying emotional issues and stress associated with the condition. Treatment would involve releasing connected negative emotions and beliefs; reducing the stress levels, improving self-image and increasing confidence, and disconnecting any associations between weight and self worth. Currently you are running an inappropriate programme in that most powerful computer called a Brain, so re-programming it to recognise when you are full, and re-booting the system to eat healthy, nutritious food and take appropriate exercise, would be deeply beneficial to the overall treatment.

Pain control
For over 100 years Hypnosis has been used for pain control - up to and including surgery. It is excellent for the pain associated with arthritis and other painful conditions. Treatment will be tailored to each client’s individual needs, but will include self help techniques for you to use at home on a day to day basis. Hypnosis is also used to bring physical relaxation to reduce tiredness and muscular aches.

Panic Attacks

Symptoms of a panic attack usually begin very suddenly and can include shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, dizziness, tingling, sensations in the chest and anxiety. There is almost certainly an underlying root cause which is a trigger for these attacks. Treatment would eliminate the effects of the underlying cause, reduce your stress levels, and provide tools to be used to stop any future panic attack. Just knowing that you will be able to handle an attack if it happens, can greatly reduce the impact of the event. By dealing with the underlying problem, the habitual responses you have been experiencing will be broken and you can get on with life normally. This will re-programme your mind to respond appropriately, no matter where you are, who you are with, and what you are doing. More ….

Performance Anxiety
A ‘performance’, whether it be on the stage, giving a speech, in front of an audience, on a sport’s field, at a meeting, or even in bed, can cause many people acute anxiety. In every situation, there will be some uniqueness and some similarities to the underlying causes. Hypnotherapy can both find the problem and dissolve it, reducing the anxiety, and creating a positive future template. Instead of anticipating anxiety, you will start to predict excitement, enjoyment and success. More ….

Phobias

The speed with which most phobias can be banished is always a surprise to the sufferer. The most common phobias are Agoraphobia, Claustrophobia and phobias relating to travel, particularly Airplanes. But any form of phobia can be treated – so not matter how embarrassed you might be by an unusual phobia, you no longer need to live with it. When a member of the family suffers, there whole family is affected. The process for clearing phobias is very simply and fascinating process.

Post-Operative Recovery
The more control you have over how you feel after an operation will often be a factor in how quickly and effectively you recover. Your recovery can be hastened, pain and discomfort relieved, even scarring and bruising reduced. You can arrange to have therapy soon after your surgery – and you could also seek advice before you to into hospital, and learn how you can help to speed your own recovery with some simple but highly effective techniques.

Relationships

When your relationship runs into trouble, you can influence change by first making changes within yourself. You are the only person you can change, but those changes will affect the dynamics of the relationship for both of you. As you come to know yourself, to understand what you deserve and want from the relationship, your positive attitude will help the relationship to change. Changing yourself helps, but both partners should participate in the process to effect lasting and meaningful change in the relationship.

Hypnosis and coaching are used, along with other techniques to bring new confidence; to clear underlying emotional issues; to understand more about yourself; to change behaviour patterns; to increase motivation; and to create deeper trust and understanding and joy in the relationship.

Road Rage

Overcome the stress associated with driving on today’s busy roads. Bring your own levels of anger and frustration under control, and drive in a more relaxed way. You will be amazed at how much more pleasurable your journeys will be.

Sleeping problems

Your unconscious mind carries on working, even while you are asleep. When we have sleep problems it is usually because our unconscious mind is busy trying to resolve some of the things that bother us during our waking hours. Whatever form your sleep disorder takes – like waking early, disturbed sleep, snoring, or insomnia, Hypnosis can help you relax, to establish a better sleeping rhythm and to sleep more peacefully, allowing the sleep you do get to be more beneficial. If there are emotional problems causing your broken or poor sleep, then they can also be dealt with.

Smoking Cessation

This is the most widely known and accepted use of Hypnotherapy. It is effective, safe and comfortable for the client. There are no negative side-effects, you will not need any substitutes after the treatment. It is a One Session treatment that can help you to stop smoking and make sure you do not trick yourself into starting again. The programme is designed to make sure you do not replace your habit with food or anything else; it will help you to deal better with stress, and will motivate you to improve your general health and wellbeing.

Speech impediments

Drawing on the combination of techniques available, many conditions such as Stammering, Stuttering, Mumbling and other speech problems can be reduced or even eliminated. Often there are painful, emotional connections, usually beyond the conscious knowledge of the sufferer and when these are cleared, the condition often disappears as well.

Stress
Whatever the cause of your stress, it is a condition that is both mentally and emotionally disruptive to your physical health and wellbeing. You may notice a rise in your blood pressure, an increased heart rate, muscular tension, irritability, and possibly depression. You might even have been diagnosed with one of many stress-related illnesses. Your treatment will take into account your own particular circumstances. It will improve your ability to relax, deal with underlying emotional issues, and create new and positive ways for you to respond to stressful situations.

Tics & Spasms
These often distressing spasmodic muscular contractions, are most commonly seen in the face, mouth, eyes, head, neck or shoulder muscles, and often exacerbated by stress. The movement is involuntary, and most sufferers find embarrassing. Treatment would involve reducing the stress levels, improving confidence and self esteem, and eliminating any underlying negative emotions or beliefs.

Weight control

Diets are not effective in the long term = you have probably discovered that already. Yet, you can achieve the weight you desire. Hypnotherapy can help to bring out the resources and strengths you already have within you to make it happen and, very importantly, to adjust to the new life that you’ll have so that you maintain your healthier weight Hypnotherapy can overcome the ‘blocks’ that have been built up within your unconscious mind that are making it hard for you to keep your weight under control. It will also improve your self esteem. More ……
