Weight Control Course

This course consists of 5 treatment visits at consecutive weekly intervals with an optional booster treatment visit
at a reduced fee at monthly intervals. The treatment is extremely effective and has a very high success rate.
Over-eating is usually a symptom of an underlying emotional problem and any attempt to treat just the symptom
alone will often result in failure. This is the reason why diets do not appear to be effective and unless you have
a cast-iron self-discipline day in and day out, each successive diet will just be abandoned.

Diets basically do not address the underlying compulsion that 'drives' the behaviour of over-eating. A substantial
number of people are career dieters, they in effect 'career' from one miracle diet to the next, actually 'gaining weight'
in the process, they may be successful for a while in losing some excess weight, but then the self-discipline
disappears and they find that they quickly drift back into old comfortable eating habits, rapidly gaining the weight
again with a little extra on top, only to embark on the next miracle diet and start the whole vicious circle once again.

This has the effect of causing an imbalance in the body's metabolism and each time a diet is abandoned in favour
of the old comfortable eating habits the pounds just pile back on, because the body, as a result of this imbalance,
just stores the food as fat. The course treatment addresses not just the behaviour of over-eating, but also the
various components of the underlying compulsion that are 'driving' it.

Become A Non-Smoker Programme

The "Become a Non-Smoker" programme consists of a single treatment visit lasting approximately 2 hrs, designed
to comprehensively de-commission the smoking habit. The programme also includes a hypnotic CD which should be
listened to each day for at least 30 consecutive days after treatment, this has the effect of reinforcing the
programme on a daily basis. The programme is extremely effective and has a very high success rate.

Sports Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a very effective means of improving sporting performance, it will enhance motivation, instil total
belief in winning and completely concentrate the mind, enabling you to stay focused and completely free from all
distractions. Sports Hypnotherapy employs the technique of positive visual imagery, of playing an 'inner game'
where you will see yourself as a winner and also experience all the associated emotions that accompany victory,
i.e. achievement, satisfaction, elation etc.

Visual imagery is quite effective even in the waking state and most champions seem to be able to use it naturally,
but when the visual imagery is part of the hypnotic state then the results can be profoundly more effective. More
and more top athletes are using hypnotic techniques taught to them by therapists and quite a number of these
athletes are, or have been World champions.

The Martial arts have always traditionally been associated with developing a strong 'mental set' as part of the
training with a great many devotees practising meditation, which is a form of self-hypnosis. The Japanese
exponents of Karate for example practise Zen meditation, which is the attainment of a state of enlightenment
called 'satori' which again, basically, is a state of self-hypnosis, this is one of the reasons why the Japanese
Karate teams are so difficult to beat in competition.

Sports Hypnotherapy is equally effective in all disciplines and for professionals or amateurs alike, whatever your
personal level of expertise or technical ability, a positive mental approach will enable you to perform consistently
to the very best of your ability. If you would like any more details or advice then please e-mail or Telephone

Personal Coaching

You may wish to enrich certain areas of your personal experience or improve certain life skills to enable you to
respond much more effectively in key areas (e.g. personal or working relationships, goals, ambitions, aspirations
etc.). This is acheived by profiling your internal ' model ' of experience to identify whatever negatives that may be
obstructing progress, then through deep relaxation proceeding to ' build in ' appropriate resources within those ' key '
areas to allow much more functional and progressive behaviours to emerge. For treatment or advice please e-mail.
