Hypnosis is a state of consciousness one enters and leaves naturally all the time during day-to-day experiences. It feels very much like daydreaming -- that state between sleeping and waking. In this state of relaxation, also called alpha, you are more open to suggestions as your brain wave vibration rate slows down and gives you access to your subconscious mind. While your conscious mind is still completely aware of what is going on the whole time, your subconscious mind has the ability to accept information given to it by the hypnotherapist.

We are all influenced by suggestions and hypnosis uses this natural human process to change negative patterns into positive patterns of behavior.

While there are many different forms of hypnotherapy available today, In the Bag Massage offers the Ericksonian Hypnosis style. Based on Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), these techniques are designed around metaphors or stories and speak directly to a person's subconscious. This is a powerful and effective method because it usually eliminates the blockage of and resistance to suggestions that are often caused by the conscious mind.

The hypnotic state is an optimum state for making changes in your life. During hypnosis you can set aside limiting beliefs that may have been preventing you from moving toward a healthier and happier you. Our unique take on this powerful therapy will combine massage to bring you more quickly and fully into your hypnotic session.
