2. What Makes Curative Hypnotherapy Different?
Curative Hypnotherapy is distinguished from all other forms of hypnotherapy primarily by its use of logic; A Curative Hypnotherapist approaches each patient with no theories or preconceptions - except for one – that the answer to each patient's problem lies only within that patient's subconscious mind.
A Curative Hypnotherapist:-
• does not suppress symptoms.
• does not need to teach you to manage your symptoms.
• does not apportion blame
• does not make any judgments.
• comfortable, gentle, safe.
There is no requirement for the patient to experience any unwanted emotions, to relive any traumatic event or incident from their lives or to experience any unpleasant memories or emotions.
• non intrusive, liberating
3. Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy & Curative Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy - An Overview
HYPNOSIS is a state of relaxation in which the individual is aware
of their surroundings and of what the therapist is saying. It is neither
sleep nor unconsciousness - simply a relaxed state in which the person
in hypnosis has control.
HYPNOTHERAPY is the use of this state of relaxation to suppress or
change symptoms but this leaves the cause of the problem untouched
to create future problems.
To simply suppress symptoms, find substitute symptoms or attempt to persuade those with problems that their therapist knows what is causing their problem can, at best, make the problem temporarily more bearable. Where this type of Hypnotherapy is employed, the "need" for a symptom is likely to make itself felt again in the future - possibly by means of a more distressing complaint.
LESSERIAN™ CURATIVE HYPNOTHERAPY is the use of hypnosis to uncover and correct the cause of symptoms, enabling a complete and permanent cure to be effected.
Many psychologists and counsellors also use hypnosis in their practices, but there are many different types of hypnotherapy treatments. Two common forms of hypnotherapy are:
Eriksonian Hypnotherapy , which is collection of techniques, which aim to deal specifically with a particular symptom, rather than the reason why it exists.
and
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP ), which can broadly be explained as ' behaviour modification' - helping people to manage their problems and find easier ways to live with them.
However, using Curative methods, with the Cause corrected, the symptom will disappear automatically, without the need for symptom treatment or management.
The only way to cure any problem is to find
and then correct the cause
4. What is Lesserian ™ Curative Hypnotherapy?
The Definition
Lesserian™ Curative Hypnotherapy (LCH) is a form of hypnotherapy, which is based on changing erroneous subconscious beliefs that a person holds. Symptoms are viewed as changes in the physical or mental condition of an individual, which satisfy the erroneous belief. The potential for erroneous beliefs are created as a result of mistaken interpretations of life events.
If subsequent life events reinforce the erroneous belief, the erroneous belief can reach a level of strength that can trigger a symptom. The treatment is to correctly re-interpret the mistaken life event. This results in a change to the belief and consequently the loss of need for the symptom, which without a reason, has no basis to exist; which is defined as a cure.
Or... in simpler terms....
All of us react in accordance with our previous experiences and, as no two people have had identical experiences, the true Cause of their problem is unique to them. Therefore this information can only be found out from the sufferer him/herself.
The object of Lesserian™ Curative Hypnotherapy is to enable this cause to be uncovered so that it can be corrected.
Once the cause is eliminated then the effect (the symptom) cannot continue to exist. It will therefore continue to disappear until all traces of the symptom are gone.
