Gastric Band Hypnotherapy
Research has shown that Virtual Gastric Band using Hypnotherapy has been very successful and a proven way of losing weight. It is a well known fact that your mind influences your body, the power of thought and suggestion can influence molecular and cellular activity, whether the situation is real or imaginary and it can and does produce molecular responses.
The treatment consists of approximately four to six sessions, leading up to the virtual operation. The client will be talked through the whole detailed procedure whilst in a Hypnotic state. The Hypnotic state is a sleeplike state, artificially induced by the hypnotherapist and characterised by heightened suggestibility, making the experience seem real. For this reason the client shows extreme responsiveness to suggestions which are made by the hypnotherapist.
On the first session a full history will be taken. Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy and NLP techniques will be used to address the key reasons and elicit the restricting and negative beliefs in order to dis-empower them. Since it is the mind that created the belief in the first place, the mind can dissipate the belief, so this can be very helpful to start to change the nature of these controlling patterns and start to lose weight.
On subsequent visits more and more behaviours will be addressed and hypnosis will be used to allow the client to be and feel safe and comfortable, allowing them to go into an even deeper state of relaxation.
After the virtual gastric band operation hypnotherapy session, a post operative consultation is necessary to monitor the progress and weightloss, and to adjust or reinforce anything needed. This will be within 2 or 3 weeks or before, if the client prefers or feels the need.
Safety
The virtual gastric band hypnotherapy session is totally safe, unlike the surgical gastric band procedure, which can lead to post surgery complications.
