Hypnosis, or Hypnotherapy, is an alternative form of treatment applied by a specialized therapist using verbal repetitions and mental imagery.
Before the session, no special preparation is required. The therapist will take a detailed medical history, explain the hypnosis process, and together you will set therapeutic goals. Then, the therapist will speak to you in a calm tone and describe images that create a sense of relaxation and safety.
During hypnosis, although you feel relaxed and calm and are more open to suggestions, you have increased concentration and do not lose control of your behavior.
