Case
one: spider phobia
When Cathrine came to have hypnotherapy she suffered from an intense
fear of spiders. She couldn't take the rubbish out for fear a spider
might be lurking nearby, and would panic at the mere suggestion that
a spider might be in her vicinity.
Cathrine had 6 sessions of hypnotherapy and by the end of the 5th
session she was cured. She reports the following:
"...I took the garbage out all by myself the other day, and even though
I still don't love spiders, I don't ever feel the panic that I used to,
nor have I had any nightmares."
Case
two: habits - nailbiting
When Vikki came to have hypnotherapy she had a chronic out of control
habit of biting her nails. She would bite her nails unconsciously and
by the time she realised she was doing it, the nails were gone.
Vikki had two session of hypnotherapy but found that by the end of the
first session her habit had been eradicated. She reports the following:
"I haven't bitten my nails since my first visit to you and really feel
like I've broken the habit. They are starting to grow quite long
now which is a first for me and I'm really happy with the
results. In fact I feel great."
Case
three: phobia - fear of having blood pressure taken
When Jody came to have hypnotherapy the mere thought of having her
blood pressure taken sent a wave of panic through her body. So intense
was her panic that her blood pressure would rise. As a result, she
would be constantly diagnosed with high blood pressure. When she become
pregnant, she become desperate to take action. So, she sought the
services of a hypnotherapist.
After only 3 sessions of hypnotherapy Jodie was cured. She reports:
"I was sceptical that hypnotherapy would work but after the few
sessions we had I went to the doctors and was surprised as my blood
pressure dropped to a normal level. Each time I had another anti
natal check up I expected my blood pressure would eventually become an
issue like it had always been in the past. On the way to the
doctors I would have prior to my hypnotherapy completely tensed up and
been a mess by the time I got the doctors office causing my blood
pressure to sky rocket. This of course was not the case after my
treatment... I had a fantastic pregnancy with no problems, my
doctors were amazed at my turn around and tried not to question it
suffice to say they were very pleased and so was I. I gave birth
to a healthy girl on 07/03/07 at 1:53am after a long 32 hour labour but
it was all worth it. My daughter Matilda Jessica Meidling is a
blessing beyond what I ever could have imagined, she is just
perfect... As a confirmation of how well my treatment went I had
my final post natal check up with my GP on Tuesday this week and she
sprung me with a lets take your blood pressure, a smile beamed across
her face as she told me that my blood pressure remains normal."
Case
four: Irritable Bowel Syndrome
When Cathrine came for hypnotherapy she suffered from Irritable Bowel
Syndrome. She suffered from severe bloating and intestinal pain. After
a single session Cathrine reported the following:
"I can't tell you how much better my IBS has been since our last
session. I am doing really well sticking to eating things that are good
for me and looking after myself, and I have had very few digestive
problems for weeks now, it's great!"

For the people in these case studies, hypnotherapy has been a
resounding success.
Scientists are not entirely sure how hypnosis works. When a person
enters the hypnotic state, the right side of the brain responsible for
emotions and creative thought processes become much more active and the
left side responsible for analytical thinking relaxes. When people
enter
this state their suggestibility increases.
Hypnotherapy is a completely natural state that people access regularly
to some degree. This occurs when driving, reading a good book or
becoming lost in a movie. In all these kinds of situations an altered
state of consciousness is accessed. Hypnotherapists simply access this
state in their clinic to make the changes that you need.
