Hypnoke - audio equipment

Rapport is a critical element in any hypnotherapy session, and dramatically improving communications between therapist and client is an area that market leader, Hypnoke International knows very well. Hypnoke specialises in producing high quality audio equipment to the hypnotherapy and associated industries. Picture the scene, you've just performed a great hypnotherapy session and it occurs to you how useful it would have been to have a recording to give to the client. Problem is you don't know how to go about doing this.

Many therapists ask us what is the best method to record a session, whether as a record of what was said, or to give to the client in the form of a CD. Over the last year or so, the technology for communicating and recording during a therapy session has advanced, making things even easier for any therapist that wants to give their client the most effective hypnotherapy experience possible.

Hypnoke International has provided state-of-the-art audio recording and communication systems between therapist and client since 2002. High profile, scientific research data, from Brunel University and commissioned by Hypnoke, now exists to support how efficacious this method of audio communication can be. Up until now, as far as we are aware, there has never been any conclusive scientific evidence anywhere in the world, that has shown how a therapist audio communications system can make a considerable difference to the outcome of a therapy session. The results have exceeded expectations.

All Hypnoke systems are easy to use, and are designed for use by a non-technical person. Not only do all systems sound fantastic, they are also designed to look elegant and add a tangible benefit to your business.

If you want to enhance your practice potential with high quality recording and communication products that are built to last, reliable and provide excellent value for money, go to Hypnoke International. The professional choice.

"The client results have been superb"."t he "Rolls Royce" of sound equipment". "worth every penny". "I now cannot imagine having to be without it!". "excellent value for money". "t heir customer care is second to none!"." I would have no hesitation recommending it to other hypnotherapists."

MindSpa

I recommend MindSpa, a light and sound machine that helps stop inner chatter, improves focus, helps you sleep. A great tool - I use it regularly. Read what Richard Bandler has to say :- "I have devoted 35 years to developing tools to make the human brain more user friendly. I find the MindSpa to be of the most important new tools that can open the doorway to better quality of life. I use the MindSpa on myself....I use the MindSpa on my clients. The results I get are astonishing. Better learning, sleeping, thinking...... the list goes on and on. I intend to use this device to create opportunity, success, and freedom. Let the future be more wonderful! "
