Short Definition
Hypnotherapy is a technique using hypnosis that reaches into the subconscious mind for solutions to problems with which the conscious mind has been unable to deal. Hypnotherapy has been used to treat addictions, relieve stress and help individuals develop a more positive attitude in general. Many people have learned to hypnotize themselves as a regular adjunct to their daily lives.
Expanded Information
First developed by Anton Mesmer (1734-1815), hypnotic techniques can induce everything from a light to a heavy hypnotic state to help a client overcome psychological or physical problems. From helping people to overcome a craving for cigarettes to managing chronic pain from an illness or accident, trained hypnotherapists work with a wide variety of problems.
The clinical use of hypnosis, in which the subject's powers of concentration are mobilized and subconscious memories and perceptions brought into consciousness. Hypnotherapists usually relax their patients progressively, often by using a countdown procedure or relaxing the body limb by limb from the feet to the head. Once the subject has entered an altered state of consciousness--in effect a light state of trance--the practitioner then provides cues which allow the subject to overcome personal barriers and emotional blockages, and to bring into awareness faculties and abilities which had been formerly neglected.
