Is hypnosis a therapy?

John McGrail, C.Ht. (Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist) gives expert video advice on: Is hypnosis legitimate, or is it just something you see on TV or on stage?; Has hypnosis been tested in a clinical setting? and more...

Hypnosis is not a therapy. Hypnosis is a state of consciousness. It is a tool that can be used therapeutically, but it is a state of consciousness. Hypnosis can be used to entertain people on a stage show. People in trance do very weird things because they want to, and this is all part of hypnosis. People who have issues in their life that are holding them back may want to do hypnotheraphy to help them change the issues. It is a catalyst if anything.
