Americans spend millions of dollars each year, hoping to shed unwanted pounds.

4 FAQ About Hypnotherapy For Weight Loss

How does hypnosis work?

A trained therapist will use a series of specific language patterns, breathing techniques, imagery, and tone of voice, to induce a trance-like state of relaxation. This state of inner-focus makes it easier to access your unconscious mind, allowing you to be more receptive to positive suggestions for change.

How can hypnotherapy help you lose weight?

Hypnosis is a tool designed to help you tap into the underlying psychological issues that cause you to dislike exercise, experience intense cravings, eat mindlessly, or snack late at night, even if you're not hungry. It can also help you identify the triggers that cause this behavior and ways to disarm them. 

What does hypnosis feel like?

Unlike movies and TV shows, hypnosis will not cause you to lose control of your mind or body. It is a collaborative, therapeutic experience where your therapist keeps you well-informed and comfortable throughout the session. Most individuals who experience hypnosis describe it as a state of deep, focused relaxation.

Is hypnotherapy safe?

Hypnosis is safe. It’s a natural mental state that can be used to help you change undesirable habits or behaviors. Your unconscious mind will only do what is best for it and will reject any suggestions that are not right for you.
