FAQs

Gareth also offers specialist support including gut directed hypnotherapy, sport hypnotherapy, hypnotherapy for pain management, and weight loss hypnotherapy.

You remain fully awake, in control, and aware throughout. The process is gentle, safe, and designed to help you create meaningful change.
