(Ref www.oah.ca)Hypnosis is a safe tool that enables a person to go deeper into their unconscious mind than is possible in a waking state
It is said that using hypnosis in this way can cut down a 1,000 hour analysis to between 10 to 20 hours .

Self-Empowerment & Healing with Hypnotherapy
Hypnosis can help you to achieve personal advancement and healing, by retrieving and then integrating the parts of you that had been separated or hidden. For personal growth purposes, we work together to access your unconscious, accessing past events that require healing or closure, traveling back to the root cause of negative behaviours. Seeing a forgotten memory as an adult may free the underlying problems spontaneously; although at Muskoka Hypnotherapy, you accept relaxing healing before you bring yourself back in to the room.
Muskoka Hypnotherapy clients have successfully released:
• Never feeling satisfied after eating
• Compulsive behaviour
• Fear of Dentist
• Fear of Needles
• Inability to form good relationships
• Attachment to negative influences
This empowering process may be experienced as a gradual increase in self-confidence (a sense of feeling more "whole" or simply more "me" is often feedback I receive). Some clients also experience an explosion of awareness, often known as that, "Ah-ha" moment!
The Power of Repetition
Your mind, when it accepts new ways of behaving, physically creates new neuron pathways in the structure of your brain. Each time that you use the new behaviour, the lining of the new neuron becomes thicker, and the action becomes more automatic. We provide all clients with a suitable guided hypnosis CD; You are strongly encouraged to use the CD daily at a time suitable for you, allowing you to reinforce your suggestions. When a new behaviour is practiced daily for between 21 and 28 days, it becomes your new habit; the old neuron pathway literally fades away as the new becomes stronger. By using hypnosis you are making effective and permanent change in the ways that you relate to the world.
All Hypnosis is Self-Hypnosis
People are often surprised to learn that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. In fact the client and the Hypnotherapist work together, forming a trusting collaboration in which the hypnotist creates the relaxing and safe environment with words and music, and the client follows the agreeable directions, taking him / herself into the hypnotic trance state. The client always remains in control, in charge of the direction of the session, taking themselves as deeply as they feel comfortable. Once in hypnosis, many are surprised to notice how alert the subconscious mind is and how aware one is of the surroundings.
The Hypnotherapist uses the clients' pre-defined goals to create powerful suggestions that are readily accepted. By using the clients' own wording and terminology, the helpful suggestions become a part of their inner reality; repetition transforms these into new behaviour patterns.
Hypnosis can also help you to access past events, the subconscious mind has no awareness of time and can take you back to any event you have experienced. We allow your subconscious mind to travel back to the root causes of behaviours or to traumatic events in your past; here we facilitate healing using gestalt or visualization techniques. You become more whole, more confident - empowered!
