FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS HYPNOSIS?

Put simply, Hypnosis is a state of relaxation where a trained Hypnotist can put suggestions into your sub-conscious mind. There are literally hundreds of known applications for hypnosis.

The sub-conscious mind is the part of your mind which does things automatically. It controls your breathing, your heart beat and even your survival instincts. A Hypnotist aims to place suggestions directly into the sub-conscious mind without it being questioned and analysed by the conscious mind. This is where the Hypnotic Trance is used. When hypnotised, the conscious mind is distracted (not asleep) and suggestions can be placed into the sub-conscious mind easily. Hypnosis is the easy way to achieve this. Another way is by repetition. And repetition is used in Hypnosis too.

AM I ASLEEP WHEN HYPNOTISED

Short answer is NO. Hypnosis is not sleep. The name Hypnosis, comes from the name Hypnos (God of sleep), which was adopted by James Braid in the 19th Century when he observed the subject. As a matter of fact, your mind is in a hyper state of awareness. Your body is usually very relaxed in Hypnosis and this also gives the onlooker an impression of sleep. However, relaxation is the most common suggestion given to people when hypnotised, because everyone likes to relax, and this state allows preferred suggestions to be accepted more easily, which in turn means that successful results are more easily achieved.

HOW WILL I KNOW IF I AM HYPNOTISED

A confident and experienced Hypnotist will perform a few simple tests. These tests which are commonly known as “convincers”, help to show you that you are hypnotised. This might include the feeling of a warm blanket being thrown over you, when in fact there is no blanket at all. The Hypnotist might suggest, that you cannot lift your left arm. If you are in trance, then you will likely not be able to lift your left arm, as the suggestion is part of achieving your goal. The Hypnotist may use a few of these tests in one session to help decide the best way to proceed with the therapy. These tests are not used to show power, or to amuse (unless used by a Stage Hypnotist). They are used to enhance your experience and to make your goal more achievable.

WHAT IF IT DOESN’T WORK

If you want to reach your goal and are willing to do what it takes, you will reach that goal. If you expect Hypnosis to be a magic wand and make your problems go away without any effort or commitment, then it is not likely you will achieve that goal. The Hypnotist will take care of the sub-conscious mind; you must take care of the conscious mind.
Ultimately you are in control and must make the effort to achieve the desired results. Your Hypnotist will help guide you toward achieving your goal. Hypnosis works, it’s a fact. It has been used on patients while they undergo major heart surgery among other serious operations. It has been used to help countless numbers of people quit smoking and lose weight.
If John Doe loves smoking but thinks he should stop for health reasons, hypnosis will not work. John doesn’t really want to quit.
If John Doe thinks it’s time to say goodbye to cigarettes and wants to regain his health, enjoy his food and have extra cash in his pocket etc etc etc; he will succeed with the help of hypnosis. The habit and cravings can be removed in a single session. As long as John wants to be a non-smoker, he will be free of cigarettes.

HOW MUCH DOES HYPNOSIS COST?

There is a big difference in the price you will be quoted per session, depending on who you see. The IHR has no power over this, but can offer you some tips.
The typical cost varies from €100 – €200 per session. Some charge more than €200 and some charge less than €100. The price you are paying does not necessarily reflect the quality of therapy. This is true even if the Hypnotist is a member of the IHR. It is recommended that you phone a Hypnotist local to you and ask a few questions in relation to the problem/habit/fear you have. If satisfied with what you have heard, the price should not be a big factor, but you should not book a session if you are uncomfortable with, or simply can’t the price quoted per session. There may be another IHR member close to you.
Smokers might try to bear in mind that the typical cost of a hypnosis session can often reflect what the average smoker spends on cigarettes on a weekly basis. It is often the case that a smoker will only think of the cost of a hypnosis session, rather than the savings made. How much would you save if you only managed to stop smoking for a month?….a year? and so on.

HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE NEEDED?

There is no way of knowing until you speak with a hypnotist and often there will not be a solid answer, as there are many factors to consider. For Smoking cessation and fear & phobias, it usually takes only one , or two sessions. Weight loss can take an average of 4 or 5 sessions, but can also be achieved in a single session. Progress should be seen after each session. Anxiety and Panic attacks can be anywhere from 1 to 5 sessions, or more. It depends on the issue, your co-operation and the Hypnotist. The first step is to ask.

WHO DO I COMPLAIN TO?

As there is no regulatory body for hypnosis in the Republic of Ireland, taking action against a hypnotist when you have a complaint is difficult. However, due to the nature of the therapy, complaints should be and are quite rare. A common complaint comes from within the industry when a therapist advertises in a misleading fashion, often unintentionally. But complaints are also made if a client has received a below par service from a Hypnotist, or staff member.
To reduce the likelihood of needing to make a complaint, it is advisable to attend a verified member, or a hypnotist recommended by a credible person. Avoid Hypnotists who make incredible claims.
If you have a complaint, the first step would be to inform the Hypnotist you attended. Very often, the complaint can quickly be resolved. Any resolution will depend very much on the basis of the complaint.
The next step would be to complain to the organisation the Hypnotist is a member of. This is usually the organisation the Hypnotist trained with and could result in suspension, or an expulsion if the complaint is serious. The Irish Hypnotist Register does not deal with complaints due to resourcing restrictions and Data Protection issues which would arise from taking a complaint further.
Criminal complaints, such as fraud, harassment, or assault, should be made to An Garda Síochána who may be in a position to advise you on any valid complaint you have.
If you have a valid complaint, do not take to Social Media with it, as you risk a defamation suit, or possibly a criminal charge.
