We have received many enquiries about hypnosis certification.

 

Hypnosis Certification in India means a little more than the fact that someone has attended a course.

 

In fact now some so called schools run by lay hypnotists even award certifications over the internet or with the purchase of a video.

 

Hypnosis organisations with names wich include words such Phoenix, California, Arizona hand out certifications. some  societies in Calcutta & Tamil Nadu even register people as an RMP (registered medical practitioner) and mislead their members into believing that they may use the prefix Dr before their names and call themselves 'Doctor'.

We usually issue Certificates of Attendance at the end of the course.

 

We certify people who have attended our basic and advanced trainings and have demonstrated competence in their use of hypnosis. What this certification means that the person has acheived a high level of competence in their use of NLP, hypnosis or counselling. While this as all other hypnosis certifications  here has no legal standing it indicates that the practitioner has attained a level of excellence and skills.

 

As hypnosis is not legally a regulated profession in India one may safely call onself a hypnotist or consulting hypnotist.

 

To the best of our knowledge there are no hypnosis certifications

(Indian or foreign) legally recognised by Indian Goverment.

 

Some people are under the mistaken impression that registration with an alternative medicine board gives them legal protection and the right to call themselves 'Doctor' and use the title 'Dr'. Using such titles can get them into legal trouble. For more details click here

 

Please note that it is only legally and ethically safe to practice

within one's area of competence. For example a physician may help people with psychosomatic disorders and pain, a dentist with dental anesthesia and

other dental problems like gagging or dental pain; a psychologist with

psychological problems and so on.

 

Lay hypnotists may use hypnosis for stress reduction, enhancement of

sports performance,personal growth, enhancing self esteem, dealing with

bad habits (smoking overeating),  and other areas of personal growth.
