Hypnosis Today

Our Office in Etobicoke

Hypnosis is possibly as old as mankind. The old myths and misconceptions about hypnosis have given way to proven, scientifically-sound applications. Today the ethical use of hypnosis is seen in a variety of fields, including medicine, dentistry, law enforcement, professional sports, and education. The American Medical Association approved hypnosis in 1958, calling it a viable and beneficial health alternative. Since then thousands of people have benefited from its use.

Most people have limited understanding of the positive results that can be achieved in a professionally controlled hypnosis session. We believe hypnosis can benefit almost every individual who wishes to lose weight, stop smoking, gain confidence, or make any other positive behavior change. Before we can reach our professional goals, we must first be successful in assisting you attain your goals. We give you our personal promise that your needs, goals and desires will always be our top priority.
