We are pleased to incorporate the services of A Gentle Pace Hypnotherapy.
Led by Kay Pace, we believe in a calm, client-centered approach, using hypnosis to access your subconscious mind and facilitate lasting change at a comfortable pace.
Whether you're looking to improve your well-being or achieve personal goals, we're here to support you every step of the way.
Hypnosis is a natural state of focused attention and deep relaxation, where your mind is more open to positive suggestions. It's similar to losing yourself in a film or a good book—you're fully engaged and absorbed, but still aware of your surroundings. During hypnosis, you can access your subconscious mind, which allows you to make positive changes, explore emotions, and shift limiting beliefs in a safe and controlled way. It's not about being “controlled” by the therapist, but about working together to achieve your goals
Hypnotherapy typically follows three key phases: induction, the hypnotic state, and return.
First, during the induction phase, you will follow a guided relaxation to help you achieve a calm, comfortable state of mind. If you have a ‘happy place’ this can be incorporated; your relaxation can take you to a sandy beach for example. Once you're relaxed, you enter the hypnotic state, a deeply focused yet relaxed condition where your mind is open to positive suggestions, this is where the ‘treatment’ takes place. While in this state, you remain fully aware and in control. You can stop the session whenever you wish. Finally, in the return phase, the therapist gently guides you back to full awareness, leaving you feeling refreshed and relaxed. Throughout the entire process, you are always in control of your experience.
Hypnotherapy doesn’t work for everyone because each person’s ability to enter a focused, relaxed state varies. Some individuals may find it harder to let go of distractions or may not be as receptive to the suggestions made during the session. Additionally, a person’s willingness and openness to the process play a key role—if someone is sceptical or not ready to engage, they may not experience the full benefits. However, for those who are open to it, hypnotherapy can be a powerful tool for personal growth and change.
Hypnosis is suitable for children and can be very beneficial for them. At present we don't treat children but can provide relaxation methods that can aid restful sleep and general wellbeing.
We specialise in helping individuals improve their sports performance, manage general anxiety and anxiousness, overcome insomnia, tackle phobias, and achieve successful smoking cessation. Whether you're an athlete looking to enhance focus and confidence, struggling with stress and sleepless nights, or seeking freedom from old habits or fears, we offer personalised hypnotherapy sessions to help you reach your goals. With a calm, client-centered approach, we work together at your pace to create positive, lasting changes for your mind and body.
