Frequently asked questions?

There are a lot of preconceived ideas about hypnosis which have generally been created by people viewing stage hypnosis or watching people being controlled by hypnosis in films. This page will hopefully put your mind at ease before making a booking for hypnotherapy. Please feel free to email me at simon@hypnoticplanet.co.uk if there are any other questions you may have.

What does hypnosis feel like ?

Hypnosis is a very individual experience and each and everyone will experience it differently. Some people will experience an amount of deep relaxation whilst for others this may seem mild.

Will I lose control whilst in hypnosis?

Many people are quite surprised to know that whilst in hypnosis they will be fully aware of their surroundings and that if they chose to get up and walk out of the room at anytime they would be able to. Hypnosis is not mind control and without the clients willingness to be hypnotized the positive benefits of hypnotherapy is reduced.

How many sessions will I need?

Apart from stop smoking sessions which are dealt with in a single session lasting anywhere between 1 & 2 hours, I always offer my clients a FREE consultation to give us the opportunity to discuss the issue and hypnotherapy. From there we can agree on a suitable treatment plan and arrange suitable dates for the number of sessions. This can vary greatly from 1 to 6 sessions depending on the issue.
