Hypnotherapy and NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming, Edinburgh.
(UKCHO Registered Practitioner)

We are complementary health practitioners, not alternative health practitioners. This means that we work WITH the medical profession. If you have an illness or injury, or if you are going to embark on a new diet, fitness plan or if you have any uninvestigated symptoms, you must consult your medical doctor.  We are strictly an adult provider.

Hypnotherapy in Edinburgh

Hypnotherapy is a generally misunderstood therapy, thanks to poor films and the silly mystique encouraged by stage hypnotists.

There is nothing magic, mystical, mysterious, controlling or unethical about hypnotherapy. It is simply professional therapy using the state of relaxation known as hypnosis.

Hypnosis in Edinburgh

The word comes from the greek work for sleep - hypnos. It actually describes the natural state of relaxation between awake and asleep that we have come to know as "hypnosis".  You go through this state every time you fall asleep and every time you wake. If you can sleep, you can use hypnosis or self hypnosis.

  • Everyone who is capable of sleep can enter hypnosis.
  • You know what is going on, you are not controlled.
  • You can hear what is being said.
  • It is a natural state, you go through it every time you go to sleep.
  • It is not magical or mystical.
  • It has nothing to do with any faith or religion other than the state is similar physically to trances and deep prayer.
  • You do not need a deep state of hypnosis for therapy to work.
  • Rapid inductions are not therapeutic, slow relaxing inductions are far more valid in therapy.
  • Hypnosis is not a therapy, it is a state of relaxation.
  • Stage hypnotists are in no way qualified as therapists.

NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming

NLP uses a similar state to a hypnotic trance, only far lighter. It is known as an "altered state" rather than a "hypnotic state" since it is less relaxed, and indeed sometimes uses an "up" state instead. NLP is actually not a therapy in it's own right, it is instead a modelling tool. A number of brilliant therapists of their day were modelled by the founders of NLP in order to try to enable recreation of their abilities. The result was NLP.


Both Hypnotherapy and NLP are most effective when combined with other CBT Cognitive Behavioural Change Training! Look for a therapist with additional CBT / Psychotherapy/ Coaching experience and qualification.
