Suggestion Hypnotherapy

The are two main types of hypnotherapy practised by IAPH therapists:

1. Suggestion Therapy (sometimes called 'Clinical Hypnosis'), and

2. 'Pure Hypnoanalysis' (a unique therapy only practised by the IAPH)

Suggestion Therapy:

Suggestion Therapy is 'normal' hypnotherapy. When you hear the term 'hypnotherapy' used in the media, they are (most often) referring to this type of therapy. Basically, you will be relaxed into a lovely, calm light hypnotic state (where you will be wide awake and fully in control - but nice and relaxed) and you will be given suggestions that will effect your behaviour/feelings once you are out of the hypnotic state - hence the term 'post-hypnotic suggestion'.

The type of suggestion given will depend on the symptom you are wanting help with. If you are stopping smoking, a typical suggestion would be 'you will feel a huge sense of pride and pleasure now you are a non smoker' or 'you will find it easy to live your life as a non smoker'. Note that ALL suggestions given will be completely positive, and worded very carefull in order to get the very best results. This type of therapy session is ideal for: smokers wishing to quit, a person suffering from pre-test nerves, someone wanting help with their driving test, or help with pain control - particulalry for childbirth.

Suggestion therapy can be very effective, but the results are only temporary - hence it is particularly useful when short-term benefits are needed(see above).
Suggestion therapy only requires one, or maybe two sessions.

This type of hypnotherapy is used to treat those issues that don't really have any deep underlying anxiety causing them.

Suggestion therapy can be a single session, can be very relaxing, and can help to manage some problems very successfully.
