[seoxeee]

Most peoples encounter of hypnosis is either on the television with such performers as Derren Brown or attending live shows where the audience is put into a trance and asked to unwittingly perform tasks. Hypnosis, however, has also become a major influence in treating many social problems, nervous disorders and helping people to confidently function in society. Tests show that 85% of people are likely to respond to clinical hypnotherapy and in many instances its results have come after many other treatments have failed.

While its results have shown it to be a proven aid in chronic pain management, cancer treatment and providing comfort during childbirth, it is also the everyday problems that people hypnotherapy gold coast to.

Phobias

Phobias can be a major obstacle in a person's life, whether it is the fear or spiders, sailing or new situations. Gently conditioning a patient into facing their phobia, while giving them the tools and confidence to deal with circumstances where their worst nightmares happen is all part of the hypnotherapy sessions.

Giving Up Smoking

This is perhaps one of the most commonly thought of uses for hypnotherapy and one where most people have tried it or know of someone who has. Through aversion therapy, Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) and habit breaking techniques a smoker can be aided in quitting and keeping away from cigarettes.

Weight Loss

In severe cases, where people have tried many different diets, healthy eating plans and exercise regimes, hypnotherapy can sometimes help establish and maintain healthier eating, keep fit and keep patients motivated to control their weight. Hypnotism cannot only aid in reaching a target weight but more importantly give an individual the tools to maintain that weight and healthy lifestyle.

Confidence & Motivation

Confidence and assertiveness are both necessary attitudes for being successful in the modern workplace and can prove quite stressful for some people. Managing staff, customer relations and increased self-esteem is an essential part of most people's daily routines. Here hypnotism can help in boosting a persons confidence both in the home and at work and is particularly common amongst sales staff, call centre workers, nursing, police and government officials who regularly deal with the public.
