Whether it’s self-doubt, fear, procrastination, or unhealthy habits, a “stuck mindset” can keep you trapped in repetitive thought patterns that hold you back from progress.

Hypnotherapy for weight loss and particularly Virtual Gastric Banding, is used as a process, targeting the subconscious programming to help ‘undo’ previous beliefs around food.
