Hypnosis Center in San Antonio, TX

Sometimes, even those with the strongest willpower can’t seem to kick a bad habit, despite their best intentions. Consider a smoking addiction. Have you tried your best to put an end to this negative behavior? Have you made changes to your daily routine, diet, or medication and still are not finding relief? If you still haven’t seen the results you desire, you might not have had the right form of treatment.

If thoughts of being hypnotized conjure up images of someone swinging a pendant back and forth in front of you while simultaneously chanting “you’re getting sleepy,” Life Matters Hypnotherapy aims to change your view of hypnosis. A well-documented therapeutic technique, hypnosis has the potential to help anyone who is struggling with difficult life challenges. At our hypnosis center in San Antonio, TX, our licensed hypnotist is dedicated to helping clients make positive life changes and reach their maximum potential. From smoking cessation to stress management, whatever you’re working to overcome, hypnotherapy can help you change your life dramatically.

How Hypnosis Works

At its most basic level, hypnosis is a tool that helps the mind focus. Contrary to heavily perpetuated myths, those who undergo hypnotic treatments aren’t placed in an unconscious state. In reality, a patient in a hypnotized state is fully awake and has entered a heightened state of concentration. During a hypnotherapy session, the client remains aware and in control at every moment and has the freedom to terminate the session at any point, if they wish.

We all develop life patterns such as patterns of action, emotion, or thought with the conscious mind. After substantial repetition, patterns, both good and bad, become part of who we are. Hypnosis offers a detailed look at the subconscious where these patterns reside. In a relaxed state of hypnosis, a hypnotist can communicate directly with unconscious mind and offer hypnotic suggestions that, over time, will serve to change any undesired habits.

How Hypnotherapy Can Help You Quit Smoking

With over 20 years of combined experience in dealing with matters of the mind, I’ve determined why my patients find it difficult to quit smoking. People continue to smoke due to a wide variety of fears, some of which include:

  • Fear that they won’t be able to enjoy life
  • Fear that they will gain weight
  • Fear that they have to endure an awful trauma to get free
  • Fear that they will never be craving-free. 

When smokers try to quit via alternative methods, they can experience depression caused by the feeling that they are depriving themselves of a pleasure or a crutch. Hypnotherapy serves to help patients wish to put an end to this negative habitual behavior by eliminating that feeling of deprivation. At my practice, I, William Moyer, LVN, CHt, consider it my duty to provide you with a calming, comfortable experience. There’s no need to continue with ineffective smoking cessation aids such as nicotine substitutes or inhalers or nasal sprays. All you have to do is sit back and relax in calming, comfortable environment and keep your mind open.

Taking a Unique Approach to Hypnotic Treatment

At our hypnosis center, I combine the best of traditional hypnosis techniques with the science of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) which elevates hypnosis to an even greater level of success. Many of my patients report a lack of difficulty or pain as they work toward smoking cessation because with my treatments I transfer the pleasure they derived from smoking to a healthier habit of their choice. For this reason, few patients show signs of the problems associated with kicking the habit such as unwanted weight gain or the inability to enjoy life. 

As your hypnotist, I strive to see changes in your freedom, health, and wealth, just as with life coaching. I am excited to share the most advanced hypnosis techniques available today with you and to help you create the life you truly want. Let me show you that this therapeutic technique is enjoyable, fun, and can help you change your life for the better in whatever way you wish.

Why People Don't Stop Smoking
Most people know that by stopping they will save about two thousand dollars a year.  Most know that they could add years to their life, and most know that if they stop smoking right now, they could save their health.

So, why do people continue to smoke? With more than 20 years combined experience in dealing with the mind, both in the USA and the UK, we have found the answer to be the same all over the world. It all comes down to one thing…FEAR.

• Fear that you’ll have to give up your crutch or pleasure.

• Fear that you won’t be able to enjoy life or handle stress.

• Fear that you will put on weight.

• Fear that you’ll have to go through an awful trauma to get free.

• Fear that you’ll never get completely free of the craving.

All of these fears are just examples of one overriding fear. The one simple reason that you have not stopped smoking is that you...

Fear that it is going to be
too painful and too difficult!

Hypnosis works!
In fact, my unique hypnosis technique is so informative and relaxing that after only one session you’ll leave a happy non-smoker...you’ll have a sense of relief and elation that you have finally achieved what all smokers long to achieve…

You have become a non-smoker! *

When smokers try to stop with other methods they suffer misery and depression caused by the feeling that they are being deprived of a pleasure or a crutch. The beauty of hypnosis, and the way we use hypnosis in particular, is that it eliminates this feeling of deprivation. It removes the need and the desire to smoke. You won’t need useless aids, gimmicks, or substitutes. No nicotine gum or patches. No inhalers or nasal sprays. No needles or lasers. No e-cigarettes.  All you have to do with hypnosis is sit back in a nice comfortable chair and relax. It doesn’t get much easier than that! **

Smoke Free!

The reason we assure your satisfaction is because we have such a high rate of success. Your success is our goal! Isn't it time to let it go?


Our Unique Approach
Since the American Medical Association (AMA) and the British Medical Association (BMA) approved the use of clinical hypnosis in the 1950’s, thousands of people have found hypnosis to be an effective way to stop smoking, lose weight, and otherwise improve their lives. Of course, there are varying degrees of success with hypnosis, because much depends upon the skill, experience, and general competence of the individual hypnotist – as well as the techniques being used by them.

The beauty of our unique approach is that we use the best of traditional hypnosis techniques, and combine them with the new science of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), which takes hypnosis to an even greater level of effectiveness.

One of the reasons why it’s not painful or difficult to stop smoking with our method, and the reasons why it is so easy, is that we transfer the pleasure derived from smoking to a healthier habit of your choice (e.g. exercise, drinking more water, or relaxation). This is the reason why, with us, there is usually no unwanted weight gain or other problems associated with kicking the habit – the only side-effects are an increase in health, wealth, and freedom. ***

RESEARCH USING HYPNOSIS TO STOP SMOKING

* Hypnosis to Quit Smoking – One Session (Compared to Placebo and No Treatment)

Use of Single Session Hypnosis for Smoking Cessation.

Results: When they were followed-up at 4, 12, 24 and 48 weeks, the researchers found that significantly more members of the hypnosis group had quit smoking than the other two groups. They also found that among those still smoking, those who were in the hypnosis group were smoking significantly less than those in the other two groups.

Notes: This study involved 60 participants who were randomly assigned to one of three groups: one that received a placebo, one that received a single hypnosis session and one that received no treatment.

** Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking
In 1992 the University of Iowa conducted a meta-analysis of studies using different emthods to try and help people to quit smoking.  This was the largest ever scientific comparison-looking at more than 600 studies which containded 72,000 people in total, from America and Europe.

They found that on average, hypnosis was over 3 times as effecticve as nicotine patches or nicotine replacement methods and 15 times as effective as trying to quit alone, and concluded that hypnosis is by ar the most effective way of giving up smoking.
