Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses hypnosis - a deep state of relaxation- to help individuals address various psychological, emotional, or physical issues. During a hypnotherapy session, you are guided into a deeply relaxed, focused state called trance or hypnosis. In this state, a person is more open to suggestions and therapeutic interventions, which makes changes on a subconscious level.
Hypnosis is often compared to a daydream-like state or deep relaxation, where the conscious mind is quieted, allowing the unconscious mind to be more receptive to change. In this relaxed state, the person may be more able to access and address underlying thoughts, memories, and behaviors that are influencing their feelings or actions.
