What is Clinical Hypnosis?
Clinical Hypnosis (sometimes referred to as Hypnotherapy) is a psychotherapeutic technique that uses a strategy of relaxation and concentration to guide an individual into a state of extreme relaxation, known as a trance. This technique allows an individual to be placed in a hypnotic state which allows the individual to deal with and get through painful thoughts, feelings, emotions, and memories that their conscious mind have repressed or pushed away.
Clinical Hypnosis is extremely useful and suitable for a range of conditions such as: combating anxiety, stress, depression, and pain as it allows the individual to more readily endure their harmful thoughts or emotions. Clinical Hypnosis has vast applications both in medicine and mental health. It can take anywhere from 6-20 weekly sessions of Clinical Hypnosis to see changes and this, of course, depends on the nature of problem.

What is Biofeedback?
Biofeedback is a therapy that allows you to control and regulate your body’s physiological functions more effectively, thereby reducing excess nervous excitability in your body. Whether you want to take charge of your emotions, control pain signals in your body or as an athlete reach higher levels, taking charge of your physiology through biofeedback allows you to optimize your body’s nervous system and puts you fully in charge of your life.
During a session, our experts attach non-invasive electrical sensors to your skin (finger sensors could also be used) through which you receive instant feedback on your body’s functions. The feedback can be in the form of an image, a flash of light, as well as sounds that represent your physiological functions such as heart and breathing rate, skin temperature, and muscle activity. Under normal circumstances, these functions occur subconsciously.
When under stress or in pain, a component of your nervous system called the sympathetic nervous system is activated unconsciously. This leads to increases in your heart rate, tightening of your muscles, a rise in blood pressure, sweating, and rapid breathing. Biofeedback enables you to bring the activity of the sympathetic nervous system under conscious control and, as a result, take charge of your physiology.

BIOFEEDBACK May Treat:
When our genes interact with a negative physical source (poor nutrition, environmental toxins/radiation, dysfunctional family dynamics, etc.) as well as a negative emotional source (anxiety and stress, depression) a state of disease can follow.
Symptoms only occur when an overburdened mind/body system has reached its threshold of keeping this disease at bay. Often times conventional medicine or compartmentalized medicine (the skin rash is only seen as a rash rather than a systemic disease involving the bowels for example) aims to alleviate these symptoms through the use of medications.
When applying functional medicine, we first spend a significant amount of time with you creating a full picture of your current health status. Then, we formulate a comprehensive plan of action for your health. Whether you decide to take advantage of the guidance by our life coaches or go it alone, we will provide you with ample opportunities to discuss and finetune this plan as you go through with it.
We use advanced laboratory testing and assessments to find the source of the disease. Then, we take advantage of the latest advances in nutrition and detoxification programs, nutrigenomics, nutraceuticals and supplements, psychological therapies (such as mindfulness-based stress reduction), and psychophysiological therapies (such as neurofeedback) to guide you toward optimal health.
