Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is an ancient science, that is finding a new and growing niche in modern Holistic Therapy practices, and is
becoming an established ‘therapeutic technique’. Hypnotherapy is valuable in treating a very wide range of psychological
and medical conditions.
Hypnotherapy Course Summary
This new foundation course in Hypnotherapy, takes the student from the ‘historic use of hypnosis’, up to present day
practice, in today’s professional Complementary Therapy environment. Hypnotherapy is covered from basic introduction
to hypnosis and the nature of the hypnotic trance condition, to an understanding of how to induce, deepen and release
a person from the trance state. The use of ‘suggestion hypnotherapy’, also simple basic ‘Hypno-analysis’ is introduced.
The application of hypnotherapy to a wide range of conditions is covered, and the purpose, design, and use, of
hypnotherapy scripts are included.
The intended outcome of this course of study is twofold, the first outcome is that the successful student should be able
to commence in practice with a firm foundation of basic knowledge. The second outcome is that this firm foundation may
be used as the basis for further advanced study with the SNHS courses in “Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy”
and in “Medical Hypnotherapy”.
