What is hypnotherapy? 

​

Hypnosis, or hypnotherapy, uses guided relaxation, intense concentration, and focused attention to achieve a heightened state of awareness that is sometimes called a trance. The person's attention is so focused while in this state that anything going on around the person is temporarily blocked out or ignored.  During hypnotherapy the client can make changes to their mindset if they wish to do so, helped by the therapist.
