What can Hypnosis be used for?
Most commonly,
people think of Weight
Control and Smoking
Cessation when they think of hypnosis and
hypnotherapy. However hypnotherapy applies to a
broad spectrum of daily life. Hypnotherapy can be
extremely effective working with such problems as
specific fears
(phobias); pain
management; stress
management and relaxation; empowerment, motivation, confidence and
self esteem; grief
resolution and academic
enhancement. These are only a few of the
areas in which hypnotherapy can be an effective means
of improving and resolving issues. The ability of
hypnotherapy to help is limited only by the client
himself.
How does hypnosis help in
Weight Control?
This is probably
the most frustrating process most of us deal with. Stepping
on the scales is the biggest source of our frustration and
anger. "I've eaten what I'm supposed to eat. I've exercised
like I'm supposed to and I have still gained weight! This
isn't working!"
The truth is, you could have been achieving
your goal just fine. As we burn stored fat, we build lean
muscle and bone. Fat takes up space. Lean muscle and bone
weighs more. We focus on clothing size and fit rather than
pounds.
One of the first challenges is to change the perspective of what you will
be doing. 1) Weight Loss has a negative connotation- one of deprivation
and struggle. Also, when you lose something, you typically look for it
until you find it. So we speak of Slenderizing which has a more positive
focus. 2) Every person in the world is on a diet. Every thing you put
in your mouth is part of your diet. And the first three letters tend to
be somewhat off putting. So we speak of fine-tuning your eating habits.
Again, a more positive attitude. 3) We focus on the goal of how clothing
fits not the number of pounds weighed. Once you are wearing the size you
want to wear and your clothes fit the way you want them to fit, you have
achieved your goal - regardless of what the scales may say.
Self-image is a critical part of our program. The image a person holds is
the image the body tends to emulate. If a person has a body image of being
fat, the body will conform to that image. Through hypnotherapy, we can
replace the old image by creating a new one. A trim, slim, healthy image
that the body now conforms to. Also, hypnotherapy provides suggestions
to increase the desire to drink water, decrease the desire for fatty foods
and creates the desire for a healthy lifestyle. We work with how you eat,
when you eat, why you eat and the emotions surrounding these areas.
We like to work with our clients in at least three sessions. However, if
you feel that you have everything you need after one or two sessions,
there is no need to return. If you feel you need more assistance after
three, continue coming until you feel you no longer need to. Every person
is different and we work within the frame-work of each client's needs and
desires.

How does hypnosis work for Smoking
Cessation?
Frequently, the smoker started at an early age because
of peer pressure, rebellion or because it was The thing
to do. In hypnotherapy, the client revisits those
events with the eyes of an adult. Realizing that
the destructive behavior of today is actually the
rebellious acts of a young child is frequently all that
is required to begin the process of becoming a non
smoker. Used in conjunction with strong
suggestions of becoming a non smoker and remaining a
non smoker, this approach has been extremely
successful. For many of our clients, one session is all
that is necessary.

I’ve had a specific fear for over 30 years. Can hypnosis help
me?
Absolutely! It does not matter how long the
client has suffered with a specific fear or when it
begin to affect their life, the only requirement is
that the client wants to change.
Frequently, the origins of these
fears are rooted in an innocent childhood incident
rather than something traumatic and fearful. In
hypnotherapy, the client revisits that incident with
adult eyes. In this manner, the adult can
recognize the harmless nature of the incident and
change his or her memory which, in turn, removes the
fears. Resolving a specific fear usually take
only one session. And yes! It can be just that
easy.

What kinds of pain can hypnosis help with?
Pain is not a villain. It is the body’s way of
telling us something is wrong or that we need to slow
down. The problem arises when pain receptors
begin to run overtime. The subconscious is a powerful
tool in working with all kinds of pain. From the
discomfort of daily headaches to traumatic injuries to
pre surgical jitters and post surgical discomfort,
hypnotherapy can create a sense of well being and
comfort.
Simple techniques can be learned
to relieve the discomfort of stress or tension
headaches as well as relief from cluster and migraine
headaches. Similar techniques can be utilized to
relieve phantom pain, post surgical pain or the
debilitating pain of fibromyalgia. Different
types of pain management take varying lengths of time
to achieve. Again, we work within the framework
of our clients to achieve optimum relief in the
shortest amount of time.
If you are currently under the care of a licensed medical practitioner for pain management, a referral may be required.

My life seems to have gotten out of hand. My
stress levels are out of sight. How can hypnosis
help me?
We live in a ‘hurry up and wait’ world. When
the obligations of family, work and recreation pull us
in several directions at once, our body reacts by
tightening up. This causes tension headaches,
muscle pain and an all over general ‘the next
person I see, I’m gonna choke’
feeling.
In hypnosis, the body learns how to relax
completely. Learning techniques that can be used
to trigger this level of relaxation anytime can
increase your general sense of well being, keep you
calmer and reduce the tension of your muscles. No
it won’t change the number of obligations you
currently have. But it can help strengthen your
resolve to limit your future involvement.
How many sessions depends on the client’s needs and
abilities to learn and apply simple
techniques.

I don’t feel that I’m in control of anything in my life. What
can hypnosis do for me?
Feeling out of
control and powerless is a common problem.
Motivation dwindles, self-esteem and self-confidence
plummets and there just doesn’t seem to be a way
back.
Because some egos are quite fragile,
they are easily bruised and injured. Hypnotherapy
can help strengthen the fragile ego and rebuild a
person’s self-confidence and self-esteem.
By reviewing all that has gone right in life and
releasing negative, hurtful memories; by realizing that
no one has the right to control your life but you and
by removing barriers that inhibit growth, the fragile
ego can begin to gain a sense of empowerment and
control.
We tend the fragile ego very
carefully. Some may take only a few sessions
while badly battered egos may need several. We
work with each client based on their needs and the
goals each wishes to accomplish.

I can’t seem to
get over the death of a loved one. I feel
despondent and blue. I’m not sure I will
ever feel right again
Even when death is expected, we are never completely
prepared for it. And a sudden death seems
worse. Both can leave the survivors with
unresolved issues, guilt or anger that can seem to be
insurmountable.
In hypnotherapy, we can give those grieving a chance to
resolve their issues and release the feelings of guilt
and anger. Hypnosis is an effective means to vent
feelings and resolve them in a healthy and safe
manner.
Grief resolution is such a personal issue that the number of
sessions required is dependent entirely upon the
client.

I know my student can do better work. What is the
chance hypnosis can help?
Hypnosis can help a great deal. From memory improvement to
the reduction of fears to creating good study habits,
hypnosis can work wonders for students. The only
requirement is that the student wants the change.
As with hypnosis for any other reason, the person who
comes to us must be open and receptive to
suggestions. It must be that person’s
decision to seek help in this manner. If it
isn’t the student’s choice, the results
will not be effective.

I just wanted to let you know that I passed my NAPLEX (the Pharmacist Licensing Boards)!!!! Our last session really helped me relax. I was barely nervous at all during the exam and seemed to be able to focus better than ever! I am officially a Pharmacist now and wanted to say thanks for everything.

I just want to let you know that I was a smoker since the age of 13. And my biggest fear was the horrible withdrawals, but to my amazement, I have zero withdrawals, zero anxiety, zero worry, and zero bitchiness, zero pain. I couldn't even imagine my life without cigarettes and now I can't imagine ever smoking before. Food is not even an issue for me. Every suggestion you gave me, follows me day to day. Its only been a few days but I feel terrific, empowered, and just plain wonderful.

I went to Jenks Hypnosis not really knowing what to expect. I did think it was going to be somewhat of an aversion therapy. It was with great surprise, and comfort that I found that the suggestions are all positive reinforcements.
When I left I had some cigarettes laying in my vehicle seat. I wondered what was going to happen. I threw them out on my way home. I have had thoughts of smoking at the times I usually smoked. But if I try to think about going to the store to get cigarettes, its like my mind just goes blank, or I think, why would you go buy cigarettes, when you are a non smoker? I have actually started to reach for them, but the same thoughts came right after that.
I have had no physical withdrawal since I went to see Mrs. Reno. I have actually felt better physically since the hypnosis, than before.
I believe that hypnosis is the best, most complete help available to quit smoking. I would recommend it to anyone who is truly wanting to quit.
I will be going back to see Mrs. Reno for some other things in my life. I have no doubts I will receive help for each and every problem I take to her.
Thank you Mrs. Reno for following your calling!!!
Jan A., Tulsa
