The Science Behind HypnoBand

The HypnoBand Weight Loss System was originally devised by John Maclean in 2009 and is a combination of hypnotherapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT.

Whilst hypnotherapy has a long and established history of helping people to overcome a wide range of problems, the combination of powerful hypnotic suggestions, visualisation and the behavioural modification principles of CBT has led to a highly effective approach in helping people to manage their eating habits in a simple yet sustainable way – by making fundamental changes to their relationship with food using the metaphor of a gastric band.

Hypnoband is not intended to be a ‘quick fix’ and we would dissuade you from seeking out one of our practitioners if this is what you’re looking for.

On the contrary, the protocols associated with the hypnoband weight loss system focus on understanding and then developing strategies for real and effective change for unhealthy eating patterns.

Clients are encouraged to think about emtional triggers and what their ‘normal’ responses to those triggers entail, and in the case that more deeply rooted emotional problems exist, practitioners are able to offer additional therapeutic processes to address those in conjunction with the hypnoband procedures.
