Phobias and fears are common – over 10% of people experience a simple phobia at some time. From elevators, spiders and birds, to heights, dentists and open spaces, there is nothing we can’t develop anxiety or phobias about. Happily, hypnosis provides an extremely effective cure for these problems as it provides the opposite of anxiety – deep relaxation – while teaching the mind a different way of responding to the feared object or situation.
