Hypno-Band Session Structure
The Hypno-Band weight loss system has been shown to be incredibly effective at helping people who have failed to get ordinary weight loss systems and diets to work for them.
However, Hypno-Band Treatment is not a miracle cure, the people who succeed using this system are those who are determined to lose the weight and recognise that they must take responsibility.
Your Hypno-Band weight loss treatment sessions will address many facets of your eating habits and together, I will help you to make permanent changes to those habits so that you can finally achieve that healthy body you’ve always dreamed of!
Treatment Session ONE - The “Intake” - 30 minutes
The Initial Intake session is all about us understanding your current situation, your current weight, your target weight, what your emotional “triggers” are and how you respond to those triggers. We carry out a detailed questionnaire designed to determine your degree of “internal control”. (this helps me to specifically tailor the programme to your needs. We will be looking at your current and prior medical conditions to ensure that we take full account of these within the programme.
By the time we have gone through this detailed intake Session you will already be thinking differently about the way that you eat and your relationship with food!
You will be provided with a Health-Pack that includes: A daily food diary on which you will record all the food and snacks that you have eaten, as well as the thought processes that have accompanied the week - Your Weekly Weight and Measurement Chart - Tips on Sensible eating - Hypno-Band Exercises -Habit Reporting Forms and lots of other bits of useful information to help you make this change for life.
We combine session ONE & TWO…so for both sessions together it is 90 minutes.
Treatment Session Two - “Changing Habits” - 60 minutes
Session Two really gets into the details of your “habitual eating” (This is the snacking that you do without really thinking about it). Together we will formulate some “sensible” alternative reactions to your emotional triggers and you will experience your first wonderfully relaxing Hypnosis Session during which I will give you some post-hypnotic suggestions for your new responses to snacking!
You will be visualising yourself at your target weight using your “Slimming Mirror” and you will also begin to feel your stomach beginning to shrink down in size!!
During the next week you can expect to feel quite different about your food and about your own personal control over food which is reinforced by the MP3 for this session.
Treatment Session Three - “Preparation For Surgery” - 60 minutes
We will measure your progress to date, review your Daily Food Diaries and thought processes that you will have recorded, show you how a Real Gastric Band is fitted under Surgical conditions, and prepare you for the Surgical Session at treatment session FOUR
You will have another session of Hypnosis in which you will decide who both your Surgeon and Anaesthetist are going to be when you have your virtual gastric band fitted!
Treatment Session Four - “Surgery Session” - 60 minutes
Again, we measure your progress so far (research on Hypno-Band clients shows a National average weight loss of 3 lbs per week.) Once again we will examine how much your thinking has changed. Thinking and behaving differently to food is now starting to become your new habit and before long your new relationship with food will be “automatic”.
Its now time for your Surgery Hypnosis - Whilst under Hypnosis you will hear the sounds of the Hospital as well as the Surgery Team as they perform your Keyhole surgery to fit your Gastric Band and adjustment port.
Many people report being able to “feel” their stomach getting smaller and tighter during this session!
Treatment Session Five - “Band Adjustment” - 30-45 minutes
Session Five is a shorter session, around 30 minutes, held after the Surgery Treatment Session so that you have a chance to become used to your new “habitual eating style”.
At this stage you should have lost quite a significant amount of weight and you should be feeling healthier!
Based on your experience of the last few weeks you may opt to either have your Virtual Gastric Band tightened or possible loosened if you are losing weight too quickly.
This is the last time you will see me for your Hypno-Band Treatment Sessions, but I hope that you decide to keep in touch and let me know when you achieve your Target Weight.
