Research has shown that Hypnosis does work as an excellent complement to many other medical treatments and practices. Hypnosis is a technique that has been practiced for thousands of years, and hypnotherapy was approved by the American Medical Association as a viable healthcare practice in 1958, because it accesses the power of the subconscious mind to achieve a desired and specific outcome.
A suggestion given in a hypnotic state is much stronger then a command given in a conscious state, because it travels from the critical area of the mind which deals with the known's and unknown's to the modern or recent memory. Furthermore, a person's consistent and reoccurring positive reaction to a suggestion while in hypnosis can actually change their behavior and become a permanent habit.

Hypnotherapy is the therapy of choice for innumerable problems and an adjunctive approach practiced by social workers, dentists, clergy, physicians, and psychologists.

Hypnosis is a safe and natural state of increased awareness and suggestibility. Suggestibility is the process by which you learn your habits and behaviors. Through hypnosis, undesirable habits and behaviors are changed both consciously and subconsciously. Hypnosis allows a therapist to reach subconscious processes more quickly, thus helping the patient to overcome problems more rapidly.

Your mind works on two levels: the conscious and subconscious. The conscious level is responsible for your everyday thinking and represents approximately 12% of your mind. The subconscious, without conscious thought, manages your bodily functions such as breathing and digestion, and is the center for your habits, behaviors, values and beliefs.

When in hypnosis, you are not unconscious, or asleep. You are relaxed and aware of everything happening around you. In hypnosis it is natural for your thoughts to drift from one subject to another. The process is safe and effective.
