Is Hypnotherapy Safe? What Science and Experience Say
At London Hypnotics, we understand that safety is a top concern when exploring new therapies. Hypnotherapy often sparks curiosity—and sometimes skepticism. So let’s clear up the facts.
What Is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help clients access their subconscious mind. It’s used to address anxiety, habits, stress, and more—always with the client in control.
Is Hypnotherapy Safe?
Yes—when practiced by a qualified professional, hypnotherapy is considered safe and non-invasive. Clients remain aware, responsive, and in control throughout the session. There is no “mind control” or forced behavior.
Key Safety Facts:
- No loss of consciousness: You remain alert and aware.
- No manipulation: Hypnotherapy is collaborative, not coercive.
- Backed by research: Studies show hypnotherapy is safe and effective for anxiety, pain, and habits.
Common Misconceptions
Let’s debunk a few myths:
- “I’ll be asleep.” — You’re in a relaxed but alert state.
- “I’ll reveal secrets.” — You control what you say and do.
- “It’s dangerous.” — There’s no evidence of harm when practiced ethically.
