Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy

Clinical hypnotherapy is commonly used to complement psychotherapy. Hypnosis is a widely accepted method for helping people make desired changes at the unconscious level. Hypnotism forms the basis for a therapeutic process designed to create an altered state of consciousness in which the mind becomes open to suggestion. By means of hypnosis, the creative parts of the brain play with suggested images, thereby altering visual, hearing, kinesthetic and intuitive perceptions. Kinesthetic sense enable the body to recognize muscular movements — for example, the ability to perceive that you are opening and closing your hand, without looking at your hand.

Just like an iceberg, the vast majority of our mind is obscured. We regularly use only 12 percent of our mind and neglect the remaining 88 percent. Hypnosis is a sublime state of mental relaxation accompanied by focused attention. Guided by a trained clinician at Healing Pathways, hypnotherapy can help to eliminate undesirable beliefs, habits, fears and other mental distractions, while implanting new and more positive suggestions that can help a patient focus more on desired goals.

Hypnotherapy also can help treat phobias, addictions, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other conditions.
