Hypnotherapy
Healing is awakening in the form of hypnosis.
Luxury hotels are expanding their wellness treatments from thermal body mapping and sleep coaches to the world of hypnotherapy.
The Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong appointed hypnotherapist Christine Deschemin in June 2021, rolling out workshops for relaxation, to improve eating habits and tailored sessions for bespoke issues. Meanwhile, in Spring 2021, the Belmond Cadogan Hotel in London introduced a complimentary sleep concierge service in partnership with hypnotherapist, Malminder Gill. The hotel provides its rooms with a meditative recording by Gill designed to send guests to sleep, and a motivational recording to get the mornings going. One-to-one consultations and a focused hypnotherapy session are also available.
The Spa at the Four Seasons New York Downtown launched the Resident Healer Program in 2018 noting guests are seeking spiritual wellness and not just a traditional spa experience. Residents appointed in previous years include sonic alchemist Michelle Pirret and crystal healer Rashia Bell. In December 2020, Nicole Hernandez also known as the Traveling Hypnotist joined as Resident Healer offering unique hypnotic journeys that can help relieve anxiety, overcome fears and phobias, or even delve into past life regression to enhance present life in Hernandez’s unique program called The Time Traveler.
Hotel wellness programs are deepening spiritual healing—graduating from crystals and tarot card readings—to now taking guests on a hypnotic journey to improve health, habits, and mindfulness.
