About Dave Hill's Former Stop-Smoking Program

During the years when Dave offered private hypnotherapy, he developed a specialized program for adults who wanted to stop smoking. The program used hypnosis and relaxation techniques to help participants focus on their reasons for quitting, examine habitual responses associated with smoking, and reinforce their personal commitment to becoming smoke-free.

Dave's approach treated hypnosis as a collaborative process rather than mind control. Participants remained active in the process, and individual experiences and outcomes varied. No hypnosis method can guarantee that a person will stop smoking or remain smoke-free.

Why People Choose to Stop Smoking

People choose to quit smoking for many reasons, including their health, family, finances, quality of life and personal goals. For many smokers, quitting can be difficult because nicotine dependence and established habits can reinforce one another.

If Dave resumes stop-smoking hypnosis sessions, the program information on this page will be updated with current availability, format and pricing. The former three-session price and previous booking information have been removed because sessions are not presently available.

What Hypnosis May Feel Like

People experience hypnosis differently. It is commonly described as a state of focused attention accompanied by relaxation. A person does not lose control during hypnosis and remains able to respond to the experience in his or her own way.

In Dave's former smoking-cessation sessions, hypnosis was used as one component of a participant's effort to change smoking-related habits and strengthen motivation. Results were never identical for every participant, and this page does not promise a particular outcome or number of sessions.

Smoking-Cessation Health Guidance

Smoking cessation is a health matter, and people who want to quit should consider discussing their options with a physician or other appropriately qualified health-care professional. Evidence-based smoking-cessation care can include behavioral support and, when appropriate, medications or nicotine-replacement therapies.

Hypnosis should not be used as a substitute for necessary medical care, and no claim is made here that hypnosis is more effective than medical smoking-cessation treatment. If private hypnosis sessions become available again, participants should continue to follow the advice of their health-care professionals.
