How does Hypno-Band work?
The Hypno Band process works by helping you to eat smaller portions of food and feel fuller for longer.
Over the course of four sessions you will learn new eating habits using a combination of Clinical Hypnosis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and your mind will also be “re-programmed” to believe that your stomach is much smaller and therefore you will feel fuller quicker.
Unlike ordinary weight management approaches, the Hypno Band system helps you to make “internal” changes to your relationship with food and by changing this relationship you can “take control” over unhelpful eating habits, such as overeating and obsessing over ‘naughty’ foods which of course just increase your desire to have them.
Is Hypno-Band suitable for me?
If you’re like most people, you’ve probably tried just about every diet under the sun and although they may “work” for a while, you always seem to put the weight back on.
So, if you have lost control of your eating, and want to lose weight then the techniques used in the Hypno Band system can almost certainly help you to lose weight in a controlled and consistent way.
The Hypno Band system can NOT make you change without you really wanting to change and it is critically important that you have REALLY want to lose weight.
The Hypno Band techniques are suitable for most “personality types” but occasionally some people find parts of the process more difficult than others.
In these cases I am normally able to use one of my other therapy techniques to help you overcome those obstacles.
Hypno-Band is a well established system
The therapy techniques used in the Hypno Band system are widely used * techniques that work, however, the process in NOT magic and if your expectations are that you pay your money and then don’t have to make any changes, then you are going to be disappointed.
Not everybody will lose weight with Hypno Band simply because some people will not want to take any responsibility for changing, or sometimes do not know how to change.
But, if you are really committed to losing weight, if you really want to change your life, then the Hypno Band system can help you to take control and lose weight.
*CBT, is widely advocated by the NHS and forms a key element in the Hypno-Band Technique
Hypno-Band on the Television
The Hypno Band weight loss system has swept the country and not only made it on to Channel Four’s “Embarrassing Bodies” but has also featured on GMTV and separately on Lorraine Kelly’s morning show.

What happens in the Hypno-Band Sessions?
The Hypno Band system takes place over four sessions, with sessions one to three taking place over two weeks or so, and the fourth session taking place two weeks after the third session.
I am able to flex these times a little to suit.
“Pre-screening and Evaluation”
This initial meeting is all about understanding your underlying “thoughts and feelings”, your unconscious motivations and your personal circumstances.
Hypno Band Session One: “Changing Habits”
Session one is all about using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy combined with Clinical Hypnosis to help you change your “unconscious eating habits”, that is, the eating that you do without really thinking about it, or as a response to some emotional trigger.
I will help you to identify what those triggers are and then help you to “respond” to those triggers in a new and healthier way.
You will receive your first CD which will help you to make significant changes to those habits over the coming weeks.
Hypno Band Session Two: “Preparation for Surgery”
At session two we will weigh you to see how much weight you have lost so far, discuss how the week has been (and any difficulties that you have encountered) and then “prepare you for surgery”.
You will undergo a second Clinical Hypnosis treatment where you will “meet” your Bariatric Surgeon and his Anaesthetist before you then continue with you new eating styles in the following week.
Hypno Band Session Three: “Surgery Session”
During this session you will experience the “surgery” session where we fit your virtual gastric band.
I follow a procedure very similar to the process actually used in real surgery, and you will even hear the sounds of the operating theatre!
After this session your sub-conscious mind will have acquired the belief that you have had a gastric band fitted and you may find that you feel fuller much more quickly, and with less food!
You then have two weeks of adapting to your virtual gastric band before coming back for the forth and final session.
Hypno Band Session Four: “Adjustment Session”
At this session we will either make some final adjustments to the tightness of your band or leave it as it is.
How much does the Hypno-Band system cost?
The Hypno Band system costs £395 and this is paid at the first session.
