The Hypno-Band was created and developed by John Maclean of Newwave Hypnotherapy which is based in Mallorca, Spain and Exeter, United Kingdom. While seeing many clients for weight loss therapy John realised that for those clients who had a high Body Mass Index (BMI) regular weight loss hypnotherapy was not enough. The concept of gastric band hypnotherapy had been around for some time but John felt that what was needed was an integrated system that analysed and dealt with the client's emotional and psychlogical reasons for over-eating. After many months of research and development the Hypno-Band was born and today it has become the world's most used gastric band hypnotherapy system available through our network of Licensed Practitioners (over 800) in 39 countries. Our Practitioners come from all walks of life but have two things in common. They are all qualified and dedicated hypnotherapists and they all CARE! They care about YOU, the client. and their aim is to help you achieve your goal of effective and sustainable weight loss!
