It’s a question hypnotists and hypnotherapists get asked all the time…

“How does hypnosis work?”

… Usually followed by:

“Can you get stuck in hypnosis?”

“What’s the likelihood of doing something that goes against your will?” (Enter the clucking chicken).

Yep, there’s no disputing it: for the average “Joe” on the street, hypnosis manages to amaze and raise eyebrows in equal measures.  

But the fact of the matter is, hypnosis is real. And what’s more, It’s been scientifically proven to treat a host of physical, emotional and mental issues – safely and with no hocus pocus!
