Gwendoline's Gastric Band Hypnotherapy
All you need to know to lose weightWhat is the lap band intervention?
Gastric band surgery is a well-known and effective procedure for patients struggling with their weight. Unfortunately, it is a costly procedure that involves invasive surgery, requires post-operative recuperation, and carries significant risks—including deadly infections and other serious complications. For these reasons, gastric band surgery is restricted to morbidly obese patients (45+ kilograms overweight).
Now the benefits of gastric band surgery are available to all, without the risk and cost of surgery, through gastric band hypnotherapy.
What is Gwendoline's Gastric Band Hypnotherapy?
Gastric band hypnotherapy offers all of the benefits of gastric band surgery with none of the potential complications. No invasive surgery is required. Patients do not have to go under a general anaesthetic (and pay for an expensive anaesthetist and surgeon!). There is no recovery time, and no wounds that risk becoming infected. And because it carries no risks, gastric band hypnotherapy is available to everyone, no matter how large or small their weight loss goals. Whether you want to lose five kilograms or fifty, virtual gastric band hypnotherapy can work for you!
Gastric band hypnotherapy uses hypnotherapy to convince the body that a gastric band procedure has been performed. Clients report feeling fuller much faster, which leads to reduced appetite, reduced food consumption, and weight loss—all without painful surgery or bland dieting. Hypnotherapy has been scientifically studied for over 100 years and has been proven effective for therapeutic benefits. Hypnotherapy delves deep into the subconscious mind—the 90% of the brain that isn’t used in day-to-day thinking—in order to create new patterns of thought, break vicious cycles, and to set up clients for lifelong success.
Health and Harmony Clinic founder Gwendoline Ford has developed her own gastric band hypnotherapy programme, Gwendoline Ford’s Holistic Gastric Band Hypnotherapy. Unlike other gastric band hypnotherapy programmes, which merely attempt to restrict clients’ caloric intake, Gwendoline Ford’s Holistic Gastric Band Hypnotherapy programme uses an in-depth understanding of the psychology of unhealthy eating to get to the root causes of the problem and address them. The program also uses the power of hypnotherapy to encourage clients to consume a healthier diet, leading to long-term, sustainable weight loss.
Health related issues to overweight and obesity
Being overweight or obese isn't a cosmetic problem. It greatly raises the risk in adults for many diseases and conditions.
Coronary Heart Disease
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a condition in which a substance called plaque (plak) builds up inside the coronary arteries. These arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to your heart. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood.

Lap band and it's risks
What is the lap band intervention?
A laparoscopic adjustable gastric band, commonly referred to as a lap band, is an inflatable silicone device placed around the top portion of the stomach to treat obesity by reducing the amount of food consumed.
Adjustable gastric band surgery is an example of bariatric surgery designed for obese patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or greater—or between 35 and 40 in cases of patients with certain comorbidities that are known to improve with weight loss, such as sleep apnea, diabetes, osteoarthritis, GERD, Hypertension (high blood pressure), or metabolic syndrome, among others.
