Hypnotherapy Demo Track

The Hypnotherapy event was a huge success, so thanks everyone for turning up! There was a fantastic turnout and the self hypnosis and relaxation techniques were incredible.

Dr Zarod spoke eloquently about Hypnotherapy, its use in controlling pain, what a hypnotherapy session entails and the principles on which it's based.

She showed us some self empowerment techniques and talked us through a short trance aimed at relaxation.

She was also kind enough to leave a CD with a demo track, which I've attempted to upload. (If you can't access it, email ims.kcl@gmail.com and we'll send you the file)







It was a great night, and something to celebrate, so warmest regards and good luck with exams!
