Have you been hearing about the successes of gastric band surgery but are concerned about actually having surgery?
Hypnosis might be a solution.



Hypno-band is a hypnotherapy system using a virtual gastric band to assist you to reduce overeating and reduce weight.
Hypno-banding incorporates cognitive behavioural therapy techniques to help you reach your goals.
The Hypno-band can help you by reducing your portion sizes.

I also offer other techniques to help you reduce your weight. Perhaps you have got into the habit of eating unhealthy, high calorie foods or maybe you eat for comfort, reward or some other reason. Hypnotherapy could help you to rid yourself of bad eating habits. Often clients tell me that they have low self esteem and low confidence and that contributes to how they are feeling about their weight problem. If you have tried all the diets and want to change your size and your life please come and see me. 
Are you ready to make changes to your eating habits?
 Weight reduction requies you to make life style changes. I can work with you to help you realise that weight reduction is possible by reducing the amout that you are eating, eating a healthy balanced diet and by you doing some exercise. Speak to me in confidence.

I offer more...
I will give you a free CD to listen to at home.
 I can provide some general information sheets.
I encourage you to increase your walking so I give you a FREE pedometer so you can record your increased activity.
(Please check with your doctor if you have a BMI of over 30).

Let me help you to...
Stop Smoking

Smokers- STOP SMOKING with Hypnotherapy

Are you concerned about your health, the cost of smoking or maybe you are tired of standing out in the cold to have a cigarette? Whatever the reason is for you hypnotherapy can help.
In 1992 the New Scientist (Vol 136 issue 1845) reported on a study examining the success of different methods to help people stop smoking. Hypnotherapy was considered the most effective way of stopping smoking compared to other methods such as Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) and willpower.
Hypnosis isn't the only way to stop smoking. Other methods like counselling (CBT) can also help you to quit. I provide CBT techniques and Hypnotherapy in my stop smoking sessions.

But you must really want to stop smoking...rid yourself of the habit...
It should also be the right time for you. If there are other issues in your life that need to be addressed first  please tell me because I want you to have the very best chance of success.
Stop smoking for you...you're worth it.

Maybe you have tried to stop smoking before with Nicotine Replacement products or maybe you have gone 'cold turkey'... This time use the inner power of your mind. You can be successful this time. The choice is yours.

 3 steps to becoming a non- smoker...

Step 1. Planning and preparation. Decide on the date you want to quit. Prepare for that day by examining where your smoke, why you think you smoke and finding any techniques that will support you to quit. You might even want to add up how much smoking is costing you. Some of my clients tell their friends and partner so that they will get all the support they need from the quit day.

Step 2. Contact me, book a hypnotherapy session and let me give you a few tips to becoming a non smoker before we meet.
You can ask me any questions you may have.

Step 3. Awaken the Change with hypnotherapy and counselling.
Allow me to guide you to use the power of your mind to transform you into a non-smoker for ever. Then celebrate success and enjoy being a non-smoker.

You are unique, are you not? You might smoke 20 cigarettes a day, you might smoke when you are bored or you might roll your own cigarettes. You might even tell everyone that you like the taste of cigarettes, but I wonder if you really think that is true. Everyone is different, so my methods of empowering you to stop smoking are tailored to meet your needs.
Take control of your life, Make that change that you really want to make. Book an appointment, enjoy hypnotherapy with me and show yourself that you can stop smoking. What's stopping you from finding out the benefits of quitting smoking?

People tell me that they want to stop smoking for many reasons including:

* Saving money
* Improving health
*Looking, feeling and smelling better!
* Being in control...and much more.

Yet smoking is not an issue just for you... Relatives and loved ones tell me they feel very concerned about partners, friends and family smoking as they know what the risks are.

I wonder why you want to stop smoking?
Are you determined to quit this time?

One 2 hour session with me maybe all you need to stop smoking.

Call me and find out how easy it can be to do something that you have wanted to do for a long time- you can rid yourself of  that habit and get back in control.

Want to feel more confident, less anxious and happier?

Perhaps you want to talk about a career change or a time to make new friends. Or maybe there is something else on your mind that needs a change in order to change your behaviour. Have you been thinking about things like this for a while now? 

Hypnotherapy involves talking to you in a way that makes you feel more relaxed. You are not asleep during hypnotherapy. Many people feel focused and hear the words that I am saying while their mind relaxes. Hypnotherapy helps you to make those changes that you know you need to make. So decide to do something today. Choose to do something today and  look forward to a better New Year.

If eating large portions is your problem perhaps a Hypno-Band programme may be all you need.

What happens in these sessions?
Firstly we talk. I need to understand and make assessments about the issues. You need to understand that hypnosis has been used by Olympic teams and is a recognised way of helping sports people. You will learn that you won't lose control, in fact you will become more focused. We agree on the number of sessions.
Secondly, we use counselling and hypnotherapy to guide you to understand yourself and what success is like for you.
Thirdly, you will need to do a few simple exercises between sessions. For example, you might write a diary or practice a technique like self hypnosis.

Imagine finding a way to turn the misery of your pain down...
With some people the pain may even go completely.

There are many secenarios related to pain. Some people tell me that their biggest worry related to pain is going to the dentist. They say that they feel anxious about the thought of the dentist because any treatments might hurt. Is this you? Are you risking your health through the fear of pain? At last, I can teach you ways to feel more relaxed, to relieve any fears or phobias and ways to numb an area of your mouth that the dentist is treating. Of course you really do need to want to go to the dentist in order to gain the solutions you are looking for. I will just show you how powerful your mind is to overcome these issues. I use hypnotherapy and counselling. You know that you need to do something. Feel emotionally stronger, in control and realise that you have the opportunity to do something today.
