Hypnotism

Hypnosis, Hypnotism and Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis is an inferred psychophysiological state characterised by increased suggestibility, and is thought to be an altered state of consciousness. Hypnotism is the study and use of suggestion with or without the presence of hypnosis, while hypnotherapy is a form of therapy in which the use of hypnotism constitutes the core of the treatment.

Skill Based Training

Practical skills training is an essential part of all our hypnosis courses. The presentation of hypnotherapeutic techniques will be followed by a demonstration on a volunteer member of the class, and students will be required to practice each skill in small groups in order to gain experience of working with both receptive and resistant subjects. Practice sessions are always overseen by a senior lecturer and supervisor where appropriate.

The aim of the our organisation is to train would-be practitioners of hypnosis and hypnotherapy to deal safely, confidently and effectively with the enormous variety of presenting symptoms - physical, emotional or psychological - for which their patients will seek help in the reality of the consulting room.

We teach hypnosis with a combination of Western and Indian techniques which makes the effect very powerful on the subject.

A free study guide is provided for students returning to education.
