If the thought of going to the dentist makes your heart race or your palms sweat, you’re not alone. Dental hypnosis offers a safe, gentle route to reduce that dread. With hypnosis for dental phobia, many people find relief-in person or via remote / online hypnotherapist settings. Whether you’re local in London or anywhere in the UK, this approach can help you reclaim calm and confidence.
Negative Past Experiences at the Dentist
Sometimes, past dental visits can leave a strong impression — perhaps a moment of discomfort or unease that the mind still remembers. With dental hypnosis, those memories can gently be reshaped, helping you approach future treatments with calm and confidence.
Fear of Pain or Discomfort During Procedures
It might not even be the drill — sometimes just the sound, vibration, or sensation can cause unease. Through dental phobia hypnosis, these responses can be gently retrained, helping you stay calm and comfortable during treatment.
Anxiety About Needles or Injections
Many people’s worst fear is the needle. (See our injections & needles page for a deep dive.) This is one of the biggest triggers in dental settings — not just for pain, but for loss of control.
Feeling a Lack of Control in the Dental Chair
Sitting back, opening your mouth, being unable to see — it can feel vulnerable. That’s often what the fear really is: not knowing what might come next.
Hypnotherapy works by guiding you into a calm, receptive state where your subconscious mind is more open to positive suggestions. Through hypnosis for dental phobia, you stay fully aware and in control, while gently retraining your mind to respond with calm instead of fear.

Clinical reviews find that hypnosis is an effective adjunct to reduce dental anxiety, though it’s often mixed methodology and more studies are needed.(link)

Hypnosis for alcohol addiction is a way to go deeper than just the habit itself. It works on the part of the mind that drives those cravings and reactions. With time, it can make urges easier to handle, help you swap bad habits for better ones, and give you more control. Many people also find they feel steadier emotionally and more confident as they move through recovery.
With hypnotherapy to stop drinking, the focus isn’t just on the habit. It looks deeper. Most of the time stress, emotions, or old beliefs play a part in drinking. When those start to ease, the urge feels lighter and it’s easier to find other ways to cope.
Stress, daily routine, or certain places can pull you back into drinking. Hypnotherapy to stop drinking can help take the edge off those triggers. The urge may still be there at first, but it doesn’t feel as strong. Over time, it becomes easier to make different choices.
Safe and non-invasive, hypnosis to quit drinking gives a way to handle alcohol dependence without side effects. It also supports recovery for the long term.
Through quit drinking hypnotherapy, you build more strength to say no to drinking, stay in control, and choose healthier options even when it’s hard.
Stop alcohol hypnosis helps you stay sober beyond the sessions. It supports lasting change and keeps healthier habits strong in daily life.
Every program adapts to your personal needs through hypnotherapy to reduce drinking, ensuring a tailored approach that targets your specific triggers and supports long-term success.
Hypnosis doesn’t replace good dental practice — it works alongside it.
