Young People

Children and teenagers (7 - 17 years of age) usually respond remarkably well to hypnotherapy and many problems can be resolved in just one session. A parent, or parents, must be present if the child is under 16 and during the session and will be encouraged to participate fully in the process. This is usually both an enjoyable and a rewarding experience for all.

A special therapy has been devised especially for young people known as The Blowaway Technique. During this session the child, whilst under hypnosis, will be encouraged to take a deep breath and literally 'blow away' many of the stresses and strains that accumulate during the growing experience and which, in turn, produce anxieties and stresses which impede happy and natural emotional developement.

The Blowaway technique is relaxing, enjoyable, easy to do and remarkably effective. Towards the end of the session deep relaxation is experienced followed by positive post hypnotic suggestions for increased confidence and other suggestions as appropriate.

Examples where this therapy may prove helpfull are:-

* Anorexia Nervosa
* Bulimia
* Bedwetting
* Thumb sucking
* Nightmares
* Phobias
* Fear or phobia of dogs etc.
* Lacking confidence
* Examination fears
* Attention or concentration problems
