Bournemouth hypnotherapy practice, Dolphin Hypnotherapy is now offering clients the chance to experience the Hypno-Band, the virtual gastric band that helps to change eating habits for the better and avoid the cycle of yo-yo dieting.

The number one virtual gastric band system in the world, Hypno-Band was developed in the UK. It uses a combination of hypnosis and cognitive behavioral therapy to give the same end result as a physical gastric band, but without the need for potentially risky surgery. There are just 540 licensed practitioners of Hypno-Band in the world.

Mr Roberts, senior consultant and hypnotherapist at Dolphin Hypnotherapy said, “The addition of gastric band hypnosis in Bournemouth to existing Dolphin Hypnotherapy treatments gives hope to local residents who have struggled to lose weight on their own. The hypnotic gastric band method of losing weight is suitable for those with a BMI over 30 – or 25 in some cases. It is carried out as a series of one hour consultations and there are no unpleasant side effects.”

Gastric band hypnosis is provided over an average of four sessions. Throughout the program, eating habits are explored, analysed and ultimately changed, as the subconscious mind begins to act as if a gastric band was physically in place. The first of the sessions begins with a full dietary analysis coupled with medical history being taken. A full explanation of hypnosis is also given, to help clients understand the Hypno-Band in full. In session two, hypnosis is experienced first hand, followed by the introduction of the virtual gastric band in session three. In session four (and any subsequent sessions) the band is adjusted and the gastric band hypnosis process reinforced.
