What is hypnotic bariatric
Hypnotic bariatric is an alternative approach to traditional bariatric surgery. It uses hypnosis techniques to help the patient modify their eating behavior and relationship with food, thus promoting weight loss.
Since hypnosis works with the mind, hypnotic bariatric does not involve any physical surgery. Instead, during hypnosis sessions, the hypnotherapist guides the patient into a state of relaxation and concentration. In this state, the patient is more receptive to suggestions, allowing the therapist to introduce ideas that promote positive changes in eating and physical activity patterns.
Essentially, hypnotic bariatric focuses on inducing a mindset change, helping the patient feel satisfied with smaller portions of food and prefer nutritious foods over processed and sugary ones. This results in healthy and sustainable weight loss, without the need for invasive surgery.
It is worth noting that hypnotic bariatric is a complementary treatment to a balanced diet and physical exercise, not a substitute. Additionally, its success requires the active collaboration of the patient, who must commit to the lifestyle changes suggested during hypnosis.
It is important to remember that each person responds differently to hypnosis, and therefore, the results of hypnotic bariatric may vary.
The science of hypnotic bariatric: How it works
Hypnotic bariatric is a process that involves using hypnosis techniques to modify a person’s relationship with food, aiming to aid in weight loss. But how exactly does this work?
Basically, hypnosis focuses on the patient’s concentrated attention and reduced peripheral awareness, leading them to a state of greater receptivity to suggestions. Handy et al. (2004) demonstrated that hypnosis can enhance cognitive functioning and benefit decision-making.
In the context of hypnotic bariatric, the therapist makes positive suggestions associated with eating and a healthy lifestyle. For example, it may be suggested to the patient that small portions of food will be enough to satisfy their hunger, or that nutritious foods are much more appealing than unhealthy ones.
These suggestions, combined with other cognitive-behavioral techniques, aim to alter the automatic connections between thoughts, feelings, and eating behavior. The goal is for the individual to interpret and react to the environment differently, promoting a change in habits that contributes to weight loss.
Therefore, hypnotic bariatric works by directing the patient’s focus to new patterns of thought and behavior. With this, it is possible to achieve a healthy balance and adopt a more active and decisive stance regarding one’s health and well-being.
Main differences between hypnotic bariatric and conventional bariatric surgery
While in conventional bariatric surgery, the procedure is invasive and promotes physical changes in the patient’s stomach and intestines, hypnotic bariatric works differently. It is a non-invasive procedure where the patient undergoes hypnosis sessions to create in their mind the sensation of having undergone a real bariatric surgery.
With this perception, the person begins to exhibit the same reactions as someone who has undergone physical surgery, such as feeling full with a smaller amount of food. In this case, there are no risks associated with a surgical procedure, but the results can be just as effective.
However, hypnotic bariatric heavily depends on the patient’s commitment and predisposition. It is not a miracle but a process that requires effort and dedication. It is important to emphasize that hypnosis does not work alone but is an auxiliary tool that enhances healthy weight loss strategies, such as dietary re-education and physical activity.
In summary, while conventional bariatric surgery presents physical changes and inherent risks of the procedure, hypnotic bariatric occurs in the field of perception and consciousness, promoting behavior change gradually and consistently, allowing the patient to improve their quality of life and emotional well-being.
Benefits of hypnotic bariatric
Hypnotic bariatric comes with numerous advantages, making it an attractive alternative for those seeking weight loss. Let’s list some of these benefits that make this technique such an appealing and effective choice.
Reduction of medical risks
First and foremost, it is important to mention that this practice does not involve any surgical procedure. This means the elimination of risks related to infections, reactions to anesthesia, bleeding, or postoperative complications.
Long-term weight control
Hypnosis works on strengthening the patient’s mind for effective changes in eating habits. This provides consistent weight control, going beyond the simple goal of losing weight quickly.
Increased self-esteem
Seeing the results reflected on the scale and better adapting to a healthy diet boosts the patient’s self-esteem. This emotional gain can positively reflect in various aspects of life.
More accessible approach
Hypnotic bariatric requires a considerably lower financial investment compared to conventional bariatric surgery.
Hypnotic bariatric presents itself as an effective alternative with direct benefits to the patient’s health. Like any technique, its success will depend on the patient’s adherence, commitment, and willingness, being a process to be guided and monitored by a qualified professional.
Who can benefit from hypnotic bariatric
Have you ever thought about who can benefit from hypnotic bariatric? This practice is especially useful for those who have difficulty sticking to diets and physical exercises, i.e., people struggling with obesity. But it is not only for those facing these challenges. This method has its advantages regardless of the degree of overweight of each person.
Of course, due to its effectiveness, hypnotic bariatric can present great benefits for those in a severe obesity situation. These people may have tried various ways to lose weight and have not achieved the expected results. Hypnosis may be the solution they seek.
But even those who need to lose just a few pounds but find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle of yo-yo diets can benefit from hypnotic bariatric. With it, it is possible not only to promote weight loss but also to break free from the anxiety and stress that may be associated with this journey.
Additionally, since hypnosis also promotes dietary re-education, even those who are already at their ideal weight but wish to adopt healthier eating habits may be interested in this technique. Therefore, hypnotic bariatric is for everyone seeking a positive transformation in their relationship with food and themselves.
Precautions when seeking a qualified professional for hypnotic bariatric
To ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment with hypnotic bariatric, it is essential to find a qualified and trustworthy professional in this area. Let’s discuss now the important precautions in this search.
Firstly, check the professional’s background and qualifications. They should have recognized training in clinical hypnosis from a reputable entity, like the Brazilian Society of Hypnosis (SBH). Having this reference ensures that the professional follows strict guidelines and ethical practices.
Secondly, consider the professional’s experience with hypnotic bariatric specifically. Ask about previous cases, achieved results, and whether there is any patient support after the sessions.
Thirdly, always have an initial consultation before starting the treatment. Use this opportunity to ask all questions about the process and assess whether the professional demonstrates knowledge, transparency, and empathy.
Lastly, be wary of promises made. Be cautious of guarantees of absolute success and remember that hypnotic bariatric is a tool that aids weight loss but also involves behavior and lifestyle changes.
In short, choosing the professional is a key point for the success of the treatment with hypnotic bariatric. Therefore, take the necessary time for this search, considering all the mentioned aspects.
The practice of hypnotic bariatric and ethical posture
Resulting from our professional performance and core values, hypnotic bariatric must be practiced with total responsibility and ethics, as well as all practices related to clinical hypnosis.
We know that dealing with emotions and behaviors can have profound impacts on a person’s life, making it imperative to ensure the utmost care and respect for their needs and limitations. Their emotional and physical health is at stake, so ethics remains the guiding axis.
Our attention to ethics also encompasses the clear and concrete presentation of possible expectations for the person considering hypnotic bariatric. We do not promise miraculous weight reductions. Our approach is realistic and supported by consistent research and studies.
Another fundamental aspect is understanding that although hypnotic bariatric can be an excellent aid in the weight loss process, it does not dispense with the importance of multidisciplinary follow-up. Nutritionists, physical educators, and psychologists should work together for the person’s health and well-being.
With nearly two decades of experience, the Brazilian Society of Hypnosis deeply respects the limits of hypnosis, understanding that it is not a cure for all ills, but a valuable tool that, when used correctly and ethically, can bring great benefits.
Final considerations on hypnotic bariatric
Understanding the benefits and functionalities of hypnotic bariatric, we encounter a new scenario in the field of weight loss aid. This method presents itself as a non-invasive and non-surgical solution for controlling obesity and its health complications.
It is important to remember that hypnotic bariatric is not a magic formula or instant solution. It requires commitment, discipline, and active involvement of the patient throughout the process. However, it can be a very effective tool, especially when combined with a healthy diet and regular physical exercise.
Another factor to consider is that, like any clinical intervention, results vary from person to person. Additionally, sessions with a qualified and skilled professional in clinical hypnosis are decisive in determining the treatment’s effectiveness. It is always recommended to conduct careful research to ensure that the chosen professional has the necessary training and experience.
In conclusion, hypnotic bariatric appears as a promising alternative in combating obesity. But science and ethics must go hand in hand, so that clinical hypnosis is worked on safely and effectively. Thus, we maintain our responsibility with Emotional Health, faithful to our commitment to scientific and ethical practices.
