Alcohol and Hypnosis

8/29/2016

0 Comments

 
As a practitioner of hypnosis, I am never shocked to see the positive applications that hypnosis has on my patients.   I have watched countless times as people come into my office riddled in pain, and leave completely pain free.  The mind is incredibly powerful. I have seen hypnosis turn addicts sober.  As long as the mind is willing, anything can happen.  This is why I want to talk about alcohol abuse and how hypnosis may be able to help.

The current course of treatment is a person addicted to alcohol will go into a  multi day detox center and then enter some form of outpatient treatment.    I read somewhere that an alcoholic trying to quit will quit a total of 10 times before finally quitting for good.  I think the same holds true for most addictions.

This is where hypnosis comes into play.   When a  person is truly ready to quit drinking,  hypnosis is able to address underlying traumas that lead a person to tip back the bottle.  I have always said that there are two types of alcoholics.  The 1st being someone who just likes to be drunk, and the 2nd is someone who is struggling with unresolved pain and trauma.   I find 2nd to be significantly more prevalent.    With hypnosis, we can finally put to rest the desire to drink by giving the subconscious mind another avenue to release stress and pain.  Depending on the mind's readiness to change, true and lasting change can be seen between 1-3 sessions.

As always, hypnosis is not a magic pill.  It requires a true desire on the individual's part.  If you or someone you love is ready to make a lasting change, please give us a call.  

Best Wishes.
