hypnotherapy stop smoking

I'm considering getting hypnotherapy to stop smoking. I've tried many times to quit but always fail. Have you ever had hypnotherapy to quit smoking and did it work for you? Thanks guys.

Depends, the old Psychoanalytic hypnotherapy works for a short while.
The Ericksonian therapy works for a long period.

Hi,

I am trying to give up smoking..... Again....
Has anyone used hypnotherapy to stop smoking and has it worked?

I am a physiotherapist (with NLP). I also have been trained by the NHS as a stop smoking adviser.

I get a very high success rate about double that of patches. I check up with a follow up call.

The factors are:

It it you who wants to stop or are you just pleasing another?
It seems to be harder for people who smoke only a few (10 or less)
How much you trust the hypnotherapist
How much you deal with the factors which make you smoke

Does anyone know how effective hypnotherapy is to stop smoking?

Also how can i seek out a well qualified hypnotist in the UK?

Hypnotherapy can be a viable resource to aid in smoking cessation. Acupuncture is another route to the same end. Much of the success of the treatment depends on WHY you smoke. Some people smoke to get the minerals found in the tobacco. In that case, you would want to add dietary supplements to your cessation program. Some start smoking out of boredom -- add an exercise routine. Suppress emotions (stress) -- see a counselor. Identifying the "why" allows you to address the underlying issues that could be a deterrent to cessation.

I did it in Aug. and have had no urges since and I smoked for over 30 years. I don't see how they can really be addicive, what do you think? I think it's more habit

i think something society completly oversees is how powerful our minds our. Mind over matter. If you ever experiment with hallucinogenic drugs, you will quickly realize this. Now though your on the right track with quitting by the half life of the radiation particles that is in tobacco last 30 years or so. So your chances of getting lunger cancer are very very high right now even though you quit.

Check out this article about some very interesting things you could be doing to help you now that you quit.

Congrats by the way.

I was looking at a program that says they guarantee in writing to get you to quit smoking after one hypnotherapy session, but of course it doesn't include a cost and I can't find any local reviews just the "testimonials"

Anyone know if these are legit or a scam?

Yes....you can!
It is an amazing and safe tool to stop smoking.
I speak from experience as I am a qualified Hypnotherapist and have conducted literally hundreds of "one off" sessions, which have been 100% sucessful.
I would guess that if the practitioner you mention, states in writing, a guarantee, then it is more likely they know their business?
It should only take 1 session, (unlike other Hypnotherapy) and the costs do vary. The price in the UK, varies from between £90-150. Just make sure you visit a qualified one okay !!
The session may last up to two hours, usually 1 and a half.
It also does not matter if you've smoked 10-80 cigarettes a day for a year or 40 years, Hypnotherapy will still work.
I hope this info clarifies it for you. Good luck :o)
