If possible, please allow a couple of days for your therapy to bed in and take full effect before discussing it with others.\u00a0 Sometimes it takes up to a week for you to process the session.\u00a0 Like other therapies, hypnotherapy benefits may be quite subtle but over time can make a huge positive impact on your life.\r\n\r\nHayley is registered with the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council with whom her training is accredited.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The cost of a typical Clinical Hypnotherapy is \u00a365.\u00a0\u00a0 Smoking Cessation is a much longer and more involved session with some pre work to do so is priced accordingly.\u00a0 Hypnoslimmer is a dedicated programme of a minimum of four sessions and has a separate pricing structure too.\r\n\r\nHYPNOSLIMMER -

Her voice is very positive and professional, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. The benefits were clear - my positivity improved, energy levels were buoyant, overall I felt better than I have in a while - and this continued into the weekend. Highly recommend Hayley, she made it seem effortless all round.\"\r\n\r\n\"Thank you soooo much for your help.\u00a0 Couldn't have done it without you.\"\r\n\r\n\u201cWhen I heard Hayley was doing hypnotherapy I jumped at the chance of doing a course of hypnobirthing sessions.\u00a0 My main aim was to be calm during labour.\u00a0 The hypnotherapy sessions not only helped during labour but have also helped with anxiety and improved my sleep quality.\u00a0 I have used the techniques I have learned with Hayley in other situations too and will be able to use them again in the future.\u00a0 The sessions were done virtually and it didn\u2019t affect the effectiveness of the therapy\u201d\r\n\r\n\"I have found Hypnotherapy very helpful.\u00a0 I reach a dream like state of relaxation and have found out new things about myself.\u00a0 If you can switch off, Hypnotherapy is highly recommended.\u00a0 I work in a stressful environment and I know a least once a month I can totally relax.\"\r\n\r\n\"I have been visiting Hayley for a long time now and can really recommend her to anyone.\u00a0 She has changed my life with her Chair Massage for my back and shoulders which always feel revived after it and my back and shoulders have dramatically improved with her magical hands.\u00a0 She has taught me how to relax with Reiki and that has helped calm me and help me through a very stressful time.\u00a0 Her Hypnotherapy is unbelievable.\u00a0 She has a gift with it.\u00a0 Hayley is one of the nicest, most friendly and calming people I\u2019ve ever met.\u00a0 By the time your treatment has ended, you will be so relaxed and refreshed.\u00a0 She is amazing.\u00a0 I will be sad to leave her as I\u2019m moving away.\u00a0 I would love to take her with me but she will always be with me in my thoughts after what she has taught me.\u00a0 Thank You Hayley.\u00a0 You are a truly beautiful person.\"\r\n\r\n\"I have now had two Hypnotherapy Sessions and found both of them very relaxing and beneficial. I have not previously had any Hypnotherapy sessions and found Hayley\u2019s initial explanation very useful and assuring and then her manner of carrying out the Hypnotherapy itself was very good indeed, her quietly spoken style soon had me in a relaxed state and my mind following her guidance and instructions to get the most benefit out of the session. This therapy may not be for everyone but I certainly found it beneficial and will be taking in more sessions.\"\r\n\r\n<em>\u00a0<\/em>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-198","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/198\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2738,"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/198\/revisions\/2738"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hayleydrakes.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
