Question 1

Can I be hypnotised ?

Accepted Answer

Yes, virtually anyone is able to experience hypnosis as long as they want to. A hypnotherapist can not force you to go into hypnosis against your will.

Question 2

How much does Hypnosis cost?

Accepted Answer

The hypnosis consultation is free. Hypnotherapy sessions last for 60 minutes and costs £60, except for stopping smoking which is £150.

Question 3

Is hypnotherapy covered by insurance ?

Accepted Answer

Possibly but rarely is hypnotherapy covered by insurance such as BUPA and Axa. It's always worth checking with your private health insurance company though.

Question 4

Can hypnosis be dangerous ?

Accepted Answer

Hypnosis is a powerful experience. As long as you listen to what the hypnotherapist has told you there is no danger. So never play any self hypnosis recordings whilst driving or anything that requires your full attention.

Question 5

Can you get hypnotherapy on the NHS ?

Accepted Answer

This depends on your GP's practice and local health authority funding regulations. It is worth asking your doctor if they can fund your sessions.

Question 6

Will I remember what happened during hypnosis ?

Accepted Answer

No and Yes. Like any other experience you will remember some things but not necessarily all of it. For example when you listen to a speech or lecture you may  begin listening to the person speaking but you never remember everything that has been said. It is a fact Some scientists say we only retain about 30% of what we hear unless we take written notes to aid our memory.

Question 7

Will I know what is happening ?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in fact if anything you can be more aware of what is happening. Although your eyes are closed your other senses can increase their awareness and sensitivity.

Question 8

Will I lose control ?

Accepted Answer

You remain in control at all times. The hypnotherapist does not have control over you and if you decide to open your eyes and walk out, then you will be able to.

Question 9

What happens if the hypnotherapist has a heart attack ?

Accepted Answer

Should this unlikely event occur, you will open your eyes and act as you would do at any other time if this had happened.

Question 10

Is it dangerous ?

Accepted Answer

No, you are perfectly safe as hypnosis is a naturally occurring process anyway.

Question 11

What is being in hypnosis like ?

Accepted Answer

It is quite an ordinary and everyday experience. Daydreaming is like being in hypnosis. When you are reading a book on a train and are oblivious to other noises and passengers, that is hypnosis. We experience hypnosis throughout our day whether we are aware of it or not.

Question 12

So what is hypnosis ?

Accepted Answer

Hypnosis is that time when we may be working at the office but our mind is elsewhere. Often when a colleague or friend sees you like this they will say ‘ Hey, wake up you’re in a trance’ ! Now although this is a saying which we use without necessarily thinking about it, the phrase ‘in a trance’ is actually very accurate. You have been in a trance or hypnosis and have been perfectly safe and when you decided to return from your daydreaming you did.

Question 13

Will I be forced to accept suggestions ?

Accepted Answer

No. Your mind is very protective of you and you will not accept any suggestions that go against your morals or beliefs and certainly a professional hypnotherapist is not going to make them either.

Question 14

How many sessions will I need ?

Accepted Answer

This all depends on the problem or change that you want to make. For stopping smoking it is usually one session lasting about 90 minutes. For anything else it can range from 1 to 10 sessions. The hypnotherapist can see two different people who have the same problem. One person might need two sessions and the other might need four sessions. The reason for this is that we are all unique and react differently.

Question 15

What is the difference between hypnosis and hypnotherapy ?

Accepted Answer

Hypnosis is the state that a person experiences. Hypnotherapy is using that state for beneficial purposes.

Question 16

So how can being in hypnosis help resolve a problem ?

Accepted Answer

When we are in hypnosis we are more relaxed, physically and mentally. When this occurs our mind operates more efficiently and effectively. An example of this is when you try and remember someone’s name. Its on the tip of your tongue but you just cant get to it. Afer you stop trying and may be five minutes later the name comes back to you. The difference here is that you were putting your mind under tension trying to force it to remember. However when you stopped and thought of something else, you allowed your mind to relax and the name came to you. When the mind and body are relaxed we have better access to our memories. We are a product of our memories and past experiences. Sometimes we need to return to a memory in order to resolve what happened for our peace of mind before we can move on in the future.

Question 17

How long does a session last ?

Accepted Answer

Usually it will be for 60 minutes. A stop smoking session will normally take 90 minutes.

Question 18

How can I find our more before committing myself ?

Accepted Answer

The hypnotherapist at the Connaught Practice, offers a 30 minute initial consultation. This is when more details are taken of your circumstances and you can ask any further questions. You are under no obligation to proceed with hypnotherapy. In order to help you come to a more informed decision the consultation is free.

Question 19

How often will I need to see the hypnotherapist ?

Accepted Answer

This depends on the type of problem and on the progress made. If you require 2 or 3 sessions the hypnotherapist will normally see you once a week. However some clients see the hypnotherapist once a fortnight or even once a month depending on their circumstances.
