It IS easier to just take a pill when something ails us. Anxiety, pain–whatever the problem is, one swallow and poof! It’s gone. At least for a period of time.
But is it the best thing?
I say “no.” I don’t like putting things into my body. Even over-the-counter pain relievers like acetamin0phen. and ibuprofen have gnarly potential side effects, especially to the liver. If you could have no harmful side effects and get the same result with hypnotherapy, why wouldn’t you give it try?
For both me and my husband, hypnotherapy was our post-surgery pain relief method of choice. And it worked. I use it still any time something is wrong. And it works.
It’s not as easy as just swallowing a pill, but it is certainly safer.
Someone once told me “I don’t believe in hypnotherapy.” Seriously? Uhh, dude. It’s not a religion.
But the fact is that if you do not think it will work, it won’t work. Because the brain is that powerful. Which is why it’s powerful enough to manage pain. You follow?
A stranger cold-called me a few months ago and said he and friends were looking to engage a hypnotherapist for a friend so they could prove to that friend that hypnotherapy worked. I was taken aback. I responded that no ethical hypnotherapist would do this because the fact is, if the friend didn’t believe it worked, it wouldn’t work.
But just that fact illustrates how it DOES work.
It’s not magic. It’s using the brain. The mind. The subconscious.
I am certain that one day in the future, hypnotherapy will be commonly used in medicine. But not yet. Not while Big Pharma has a grip on physicians and the medical establishment. Not as long as there are big profits to be made in keeping patients dependent on drugs.
So here I sit, hypnotherapy skills at the ready. If you’re interested in talking about if and how it could help you, schedule a 15 minute call with me using the purple button on my hypnotherapy page. No harm in talking, right?

I go out of my way to avoid taking pills, other meds and even vitamins and even insisted on having two natural childbirths without drugs. I’ve always found hypnotherapy to be so relaxing. It’s well worth it.
Every time someone tries to hypnotize me I keep running “what if….” scenarios in my head. I think it all goes back to 9th grade when a school show had a hypnotist and one of the girls that he hypnotized didn’t come right out of it when he told them to. It took extra effort on his part. It’s always comes to mind the minute I try to get hypnotized.
i have never seen that happen. Huge difference between stage hypnotists and hypnotherapists.
Never been hypnotized and have no idea what kind of client I’d be. Part of me thinks I’d be able to go under, but there’s always part of me that has a tough time letting go. Love to find out sometime. Sounds fascinating.
Huh, never thought about that. It’s something to think about for the future. Does it work for insomnia?
Yes, it does work for insomnia!
I’ve never been one to take a pill when really healing is possible. Sadly, too many people just want the quick fix. Like my MIL, who has been on antidepressants for 50 years, and has had no psychotherapy. So sad.
I’ve had friends do it for a specific issue like smoking and it worked beautifully. The mind is amazing…
My experience with hypnotherapy was wonderful. I would recommend it to anyone and it’s much better on the body.
Agreed! When our car’s check-engine light lights up and we take it into the mechanic, does he (A) cover up the light with a piece of tape or (B) figure out why the light is turning on in the first place, and fix THAT? This is the philosophy behind Chiropractic care as well! Why not use the most powerful force in our body, the nervous system, for healing?
