6. Does Hypnotherapy Work?
Hypnotherapy is extremely powerful. Businesses have been exploiting the power of suggestion through advertising for many years, and continue to spend millions annually to promote their products in this way, because they know it works.
As I mentioned earlier, misconceptions about hypnotherapy exist because of the misrepresentations that are made in books, films and television programmes. All of these media are absorbed by people whilst in a light trance state. Few people who have never used hypnotherapy have an accurate understanding of what hypnotic trance actually is. People have been led to believe that it is something magical or dangerous and it is human nature to mistrust what we don’t understand. However, this simply proves how mighty the power of suggestion can be, when the minds receiving it, are open to possibility.
