Testimonials
“Never having experienced Reiki before I was unsure as to what to expect but I was feeling so tired and overwhelmed emotionally that I was keen to give it a go . Chrissy was so informative and helped me learn the EFT technique which was really weird but incredibly worked and loosened the knot in my neck . The Reiki was deeply relaxing and yet my once tired eyes actually felt awake for the first time in weeks . One day later and I'm feeling positive and happy , I've continued with the EFT and am excited to download the self Reiki and meditation mp3s. I'm so happy that I opened my mind to this therapy . Thank you” 
- Helen

Testimonials
Chrissy has helped our whole family! I went for a massage and came out of the appointment having experienced my first Reiki session which was so amazing and also with some recommendations of her guided meditations for my children. My youngest is quite active and finds it hard to unwind at bedtime and often anxious when it come to falling asleep. He loves listening to Chrissy’s voice and falls asleep quickly. It’s been such a sanity saver and we have all benefited from her mediations. Cannot recommend her enough! - Katie Reed

Hypnosis A Tool for Positive Change

What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a natural state that taps into elements of REM sleep and a feeling of deep relaxation, similar to the feeling of day dreaming, driving on auto pilot, zoning out when you're watching TV or becoming engrossed in a novel. The imagination is engaged and your attention is focused inward. We all enter trance states many times a day. It is in this state that we do most of our learning as children.  

What is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy uses these natural trance states to change unwanted feelings and behaviours that have become habits.
For many of us we enter trance states when worrying about the past or the future. Using guided relaxation techniques and hypnotic language, Hypnosis feels profoundly relaxing and empowering. You remain awake, aware and deeply relaxed however unlike stage hypnosis which focusses on entertaining an audience,  the focus in hypnotherapy is in alignment with your goals and to help you achieve a state of wellbeing.  When combined with modern psychology, hypnosis can help you regain control of your emotions, your habits and your life. Whether you're feeling stressed, depressed, or ready for change, sessions are tailored to meet your specific needs and include instruction in self hypnosis techniques to help you feel confident, relaxed and in control.

Can I Be Hypnotised?

As hypnosis is a natural state, most people are able to respond well to hypnotherapy. I teach self hypnosis techniques in the session as well as an Acupressure Technique (EFT) that combats anxiety symptoms quickly and effectively so relaxing in the session becomes easy.

What Do You Treat?

Anxiety, Depression, Auto Immune Symptoms, Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Pain, Post Traumatic Stress, Irritable Bowel, Insomnia, Phobias, OCD, Hyper Vigilance, Insomnia, Low Self Esteem and many more conditions.

Quit Smoking and Weight Loss specialised programs available

What Happens In A Session

Hypnotherapy sessions can be booked once you've had a free discovery call to discuss your needs and determine if hypnotherapy will best suit you. With both Online and Clinic Sessions, we will discuss what has limited you in the past and what goals you would like to work on. Creating a space where you feel comfortable, safe and heard is important to me. In the first session I will teach you some tools for deep relaxation and self hypnosis and you will experience your first hypnosis session. Follow up sessions focus on your unique goals eg symptom reduction, deactivating triggers and past events, controlling cravings, boosting self esteem etc

The Science

Hypnotherapy and EFT (an acupressure technique) are evidence based treatments that reduce stress markers, boost immunity, reduce pain and create positive lasting changes to your mindset and behaviour. Hypnotherapy is clinically effective for treating anxiety, post traumatic stress, reducing chronic pain, treating addictions and supporting long term weight loss. A 2006 study that when hypnotized people were asked to imagine pleasant memories, their brains responded as if the experiences were real. The parts of the brain involved in movement and sensation became more active (Faymonville, Boly, & Laureys, 2006).
