Richard Bandler and John Grinder combined knowledge of psychology, linguistics, and computers – the result? NLP. This approach encourages you to be in charge of your own brain – and not the other way around. NLP teaches you to use your mind’s ability to visualize and imagine the sensations of sight, sound, movement, smell, and taste so you can shape your own thoughts. The NLP premise is, once you have told your brain how you want to think about something, you will start to feel differently about it – even behave differently. NLP is a cognitive approach. Hypnotherapists combine NLP based concepts with hypnosis in order to reach and impress your subconscious mind with your new thoughts. However, NLP can be used with or without hypnosis.
Some people have unusually high resistance to hypnosis due to misinformation about the nature of hypnosis and their consequent fear of loss of control. In other cases a client may have other, more personal reasons to resist hypnosis, but still wishes to make some changes in their own behavior. In those cases NLP is the ideal alternative to hypnosis, since it can be used in just about every case the hypnosis is used (123) with similar results.

Hypnotherapy, as the name suggests, is a form of therapy which utilizes the art of hypnosis.
Hypnosis refers to a trance like state, in which the subject is a more receptive state of mind to allow suggestions to be embedded. Not many people realize that every single day they naturally slipping in and out of trance type states (such as when someone is concentrating on a piece of work). Hypnotherapists are just able to help induce this heightened state in a subject.
Hypnotherapy can be used to help many different conditions such as addictions, phobias and
stress related issues. (123) Other uses of hypnotherapy can help self improvement i.e. help to boost their confidence, make public speeches (123) etc.Hypnotherapy can be highly effective if the subject/individual is open minded and receptive – if the subject is skeptical and has a closed mind, hypnotherapy will probably have little or no effect.
Hypnotherapy is the only scientifically proven, drug-free method that can be used to reliably
and safely direct the operation of the subconscious mind to achieve success.
Hypnotherapy changes your brain’s pathways – so that, in what may feel like a wonder, your
subconscious starts to work for you rather than against you. Often, change that previously
seemed unattainable all of a sudden feels natural.
Using hypnosis to access the subconscious helps clients to achieve what they desire for
themselves – from losing weight to quitting smoking, from overcoming phobias to vanquishing
chronic pain, playing better sports or becoming a strong public speaker.
