Chinotherapy is the use of hypnosis for therapeutic purposes. Although most people react to the word “hypnosis” with reservations, having an association with magicians and illusionists, it is a matter of prejudice.
We most often associate hypnosis with stage hypnosis, ie situations that are shown in movies, in which a “hypnotized” person does unusual, funny, and even unpleasant things. There are no such involuntary actions and unwanted activities in hypnotherapy for several reasons, which will be explained below.
The state in which the hypnotherapist introduces the client is a state of relaxation, ie a state in which we all find ourselves several times in one day (immediately after waking up, before falling asleep, while staring at an interesting movie or other TV program, while we are able to meditations, etc.). Thus, the state in which hypnosis takes place is an alpha to the theta state of consciousness, depending on whether the client is in a state of deep or ordinary relaxation.
Hypnosis has been in use for thousands of years. It is known to have been used for therapeutic purposes by the ancient Greeks, Romans, Sumerians, Indians, Chinese and many others. In Egypt and Greece, the sick went to temples specially designed for treatment with the help of hypnotherapy, which were called “dream temples” or “sleep temples”. The oldest evidence of the use of hypnosis dates from 1550 BC, as evidenced by the Egyptian papyrus (Ebers papyrus).
This further means that the client is fully aware during the session, to hear everything that is said to him, to be able to answer the questions asked and most importantly – to be able to remember everything that happened during the session. The only exception here is induced amnesia for therapeutic purposes, although even in that case, the memory can be accessed later. Also, the client can terminate the session at any time if he does not agree with anything that the therapist suggests.
We usually joke and tell clients that you are not in a circus so we won’t play around and make you an animal or anything amusing. Nor do we act contrary to your moral, religious or other principles at the cost of being suggested to do so. The purpose of hypnotherapy is to quickly, safely and easily change limiting beliefs and other inadequate programs in your subconscious. We access information from your memory and improve certain desired qualities – such as self-confidence, or eliminate some bad habits – such as smoking, etc.
In the state of hypnosis, the conscious critical mind is bypassed, which is the biggest obstacle to receiving useful suggestions. Client awareness and focus are enhanced, as is your receptivity to suggestions. Also, in a state of hypnosis, it is easier to access the information stored in your unconscious memory.
Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness, which is characterised by an increased ability to achieve the desired changes in patterns of behaviour, motivation, lifestyle and attitude towards yourself. The goal is certainly positively oriented, in terms of improving the various qualities, which are defined by the client.
Hypnosis is perfectly safe. It's actually a natural treatment and does not have any after effects - unlike pharmaceutical drugs! You will only be in a state of light hypnosis so you will be aware of what is happening. You are in control, not the therapist. We are only there to guide your discovery in the right direction.
Although the name itself comes from the Greek word "hypnos" - which means a state of sleep, hypnosis does not send you into a deep sleep or even a catnap. Therefore, there is no possibility that someone "does not wake up" from hypnosis, because it is certainly not a dream.
Throughout the session, you will be aware of the suggestions prompted by the therapist, notice everything we say and can communicate with us. There may be moments when you drift off but at no point will you be completely unconscious during your session.
Hypnosis is a state of cooperation and consent. At all times, you are mentally awake and able to control the information you provide. If there is anything you do not want to reveal, you will not reveal it.
