If you’ve ever thought about visiting a hypnotherapist, you may have wondered about the possible side effects of hypnotherapy.

Most of the drugs we take have side effects which need to be understood. Hopefully the side effects are more than compensated for by the positive effects of the drug.

So what are the positive side effects of hypnotherapy?

During hypnosis, sometimes people:

• feel a lightness or heaviness
• feel a tingling or dissociation from the body
• laughing

These are all normal effects which show that the therapy is working. Most of the time you will just feel relaxed and in a light trance-like state.

After hypnosis, there are many positive side effects including:

• relaxation
• sleeping well
• improved confidence and self-esteem

These effects are all positive and are the result of the effective use of hypnosis and other techniques by an experience therapist who is skilled in the techniques that will help you to make positive changes in your life.
