We all have surely heard of the term “Hypnosis” in our lifetime. There is a misconception that hypnosis is where someone else takes over your mind, and you never know what is happening around you. Hypnosis is a state of mind where your focus and concentration is at maximum. In this trance-like state, you feel calm and relaxed and are more open to the therapist’s suggestions. Chennai Minds has the well-experienced and best psychiatrist in Chennai to perform hypnotherapy under the proper guidance and methodologies. We perform hypnosis on individuals who cannot cope with their anxiety, pain or for those who need to gain control over their undesired behaviors.

What Can You Expect In A Hypnotherapy Session?

The hypnotherapy sessions start by reviewing your medical records and explaining the therapy process. Then the therapist begins to speak in a soothing and gentle tone, followed by images that give you a sense of relaxation, well-being, and security. So, when you reach the desired mental state, the therapist would suggest different ways or ask you questions regarding your treatment goal. Sometimes, the psychiatrist would also help you to visualize images regarding the treatment for better results. 

So, the Hypnosis Therapy session ends when the required goals are accomplished. You can bring yourself out of the hypnosis state, or the therapist will take the necessary steps to achieve the same.
