More hypnotherapists are offering the hypnotic gastric band bypass or similar process in which they hypnotize weight loss clients into feeling as if they have had a gastric band bypass. While the method certainly works in the short term for many – see http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-stories/2011/07/01/mum-and-daughter-lose-five-stone-after-hypnotherapist-convinces-them-they-ve-had-gastric-bands-fitted-115875-23238966/ for one such story of success – this is not the only effective method for hypnotic weight loss . . . although it certainly it a LOT less painful than an actual surgery and it does yield results for many.
