The V-Band, or Virtual Band, is the most advanced hypnotherapy for weight loss technique being practiced by hypnotherapists all over the world today.  It works by replicating the effects of actual lap band surgery, causing you to think and behave as if your stomach has shrunk.  After the procedure, you feel satisfied with smaller amounts of food, enabling you lose weight quickly and effortlessly. We looked at the differences between the V-Band and the actual surgery and discovered that hypnotherapy for weight loss is just as effective, if not more so, than weight loss surgery and it does not carry the risks of surgery.

It’s the most advanced weight loss procedure being used by hypnotherapists today.  The concept was first introduced in the UK, where it was reported that a woman named Joh Smith lost 55 lbs after being hypnotized to believe she had gastric binding. It later spread to other parts of Europe and is currently making its West Coast debut at the Santa Monica Hypnosis Clinic.

The V-Band is a non-surgical procedure that uses hypnosis and the power of the subconscious mind to help you achieve the sensation of your stomach being constricted by a gastric band. As a result of this procedure, you feel satisfied with smaller portions, you eat less and you steadily lose the excess weight.

How Does It Work?

The procedure lasts less than 20 minutes.  While under deep trance, your therapist will suggest to you that you’ve been fitted with a gastric band.  After the procedure, you will be eating smaller portions. Every time before you eat, you will feel a tightening in your stomach, signaling you to only eat when your stomach is empty.  You will feel full quicker and will recognize that you are full when your stomach feels like a balloon that has been inflated to maximum capacity.

What’s the Success Rate?

Although there’s been a lot of positive press about the mental lap band, it is a little too early to tell what the success rate will be.  So far, this program has yielded very positive results. Because we want to be able to publish our results in a clinical journal, we have decided to offer the program to a select few for a deeply discounted rate.  Participants will be asked to give feedback and their photo and resulting statistics will be published.

How Do I Apply for The Clinical Study?

A few openings are still available in our clinical study. We would have to meet with you first to make sure you qualify for the study. If this sounds like it would be a good fit for you, please call us so we can get you in for a consultation.

The clinical study is being held at the Santa Monica Hypnosis Clinic starting the second week of February.  Your time commitment will depend on how much weight you want to lose (at a minimum, you will receive 12 one-hour sessions).

We have been offering this program to our clients for quite some time and have been getting great results.  Because we want to be able to publish the results in a clinical journal, we have decided to offer the program to a select few for a deeply discounted rate.  Participants will be asked to give feedback and their photo and resulting statistics will be published.
