ABOUT Hypnotherapy

Here is an example of how hypnotherapy can be incredibly effective in a specific area:

 

Many professional tennis players have been utilising hypnotherapy techniques for some time. How could this work for aspiring players who are nowhere near the level of a pro?

 

Let's explore ways in which hypnotherapy can be a very powerful tool to help you to improve your performance on the tennis court. Your physical fitness, strength and tactical ability may be at a high level but if your mental toughness and self-belief do not match these then winning matches may not come easily. You can focus on reducing anxiety, building confidence, changing negative thinking and increasing deep concentration. Visualisation techniques can be used to home in on areas that need to be worked on such as a glitch in a service action that prevents it from being a fully effective stroke; by visualizing the correct motion and replaying it repeatedly in your mind this can eradicate such issues rapidly.

 

How would a hypnotherapy session work? A trained therapist will guide and relax you into a state of heightened awareness and concentration; this will allow you to access your subconscious mind. The use of positive affirmations, visualization exercises and post-hypnotic suggestions can be focused to meet specific needs and challenges. Visualization enables a player to see themselves performing at their best leading to increased self-belief and confidence.
