Hypnosis and hypnotherapy has been used for centuries and is one of the oldest forms of healthcare used by the Egyptians. Using the conscious and subconscious minds, medical hypnotherapy or clinical hypnotherapy can cure or significantly reduce chronic anxiety, chronic pain, chronic back pain. There is sleep hynopsis that accesses the subconscious in order to rewire the brain. Hynopsis for pain has been known to be quite effective. If you suffer from a chronic illness, perhaps hypnosis can be a potential pathway to healing.

So…. Hypnotherapists normally moan about Street and Stage Hypnosis….. but is it poorly trained Hypnotherapists doing all the pr damage in the profession. Let’s discuss ! Video Rating: / 5
A college campus is one of my favorite spots to do street hypnosis where students love getting the opportunity to experience real hypnosis and watch their friends get hypnotized.
Yesterday I stopped by the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and went out to the middle of campus to give students there the chance to get hypnotized.
The hypnosis was so popular on campus that a crowd started gathering as soon as we got started and a whole bunch of students came out to see or experience hypnosis.
Right now I’m in the middle of my stage hypnosis tour so while I’m mostly doing stage shows on campuses, I love getting the opportunity to come out and do some street hypnosis when I can too! 🙂
Want to experience hypnosis on your campus? Contact Bass/Schuler Entertainment at (773) 481-2600 or info@bass-schuler.com to book me to come perform at your school.

Hypnotherapy is a form of psychotherapy in which a patient is guided into a deep state of relaxation or trans-like state, and once in that state the therapist works with the patient to help them create the change they are looking for in their life. This is done by the therapist using different guided relaxation techniques, visualizations, and even increased awareness of the mental and physical state, all of which help us slip into this trance.
While in this state, a person is able to shut off any outside noise, worry, or distraction and focus in on specific thoughts or tasks. Since this is done in such a state of relaxation, it can be helpful to try out hypnosis as a way to tap into any memories or experiences that may be too painful to recall consciously. Hypnosis is almost always done in combination with regular psychotherapy treatment.
Being in this trance like state makes us more open to suggestion and change, so it’s VERY important that you know and trust your hypnotherapist. Most commonly, hypnotherapy is used for 2 purposes.
1. For suggestion. Meaning that people will seek out hypnosis as a way to have someone help them change a behavior they haven’t been able to change on their own. Such as smoking, overcome test anxiety, or even stop nail biting. Many people have also reported using hypnotherapy as a way to better manage chronic pain.
2. Analysis: Meaning that we would try out hypnosis as a way to explore a very painful root of our issue. For example, let’s say we could never really process through the abuse that caused our eating disorder. Every time it was just too painful and we would dissociate or completely shut down. Hypnosis is another option that can allow us to finally get to the root of our struggles and bring it into our conscious mind.
ISSUES WITH HYPNOTHERAPY
Due to the suggestive nature of hypnotherapy it is actually a very unreliable form of treatment. While many people have used it to uncover repressed memories, research shows that the quality and validity of these newly found memories isn’t very reliable. Hypnotherapy can even create false memories simply because the therapist could lead us or suggest something to their patient while they are hypnotized. I am not saying that that is done on purpose, but being in that vulnerable of a state can allow us to go along with whatever the therapist says.
Hypnotherapy is also not appropriate for anyone with psychotic symptoms such as delusions or hallucinations.
Due to all of these very serious concerns, hypnotherapy isn’t very widely used anymore. While hypnotherapy isn’t brainwashing or a form of mind control, it can lead us to create false and possibly harmful memories, and possibly make our mental illness worse.
It is recommended that anyone struggling with mental illness or mental health issues seek out traditional therapy practices first since they are supported in research and have positive data to support it.
Also, in order for someone to actually be considered a hypnotherapist who can help you better manage any mental health issues you are having they have to be a fully educated and licensed therapist with and then get a certification or license for hypnotherapy. So know that you can ask them what their credentials are prior to making an appt to see them.
Last, know that I am not ruling out hypnosis from helping some of you out there, I just feel it’s important for us to be completely informed and careful when finding the right treatment. Just like I would want you to make sure you like and feel connected to your therapist, I also want you to find safe and effective treatment for whatever is upsetting you.

Hypnotherapy techniques are a fast effective and natural way of helping people feel better, yet many counsellors or therapists not familiar with how hypnosis works may regard using hypnotherapy as a ‘no go area’ for their clients.
In this video I’ll explain why hypnosis to us is like water to a fish, and I’ll share 3 core hypnotherapy techniques that any therapist should know.
