Bryan Gill Simply Hypnosis
My name is Bryan Gill BA (Hons) PGCE C.Ht - I’m a highly qualified professional, a teacher for over 20 years, one of the many things I developed in this time was an appreciation of how often people needed just that little bit of extra help to improve their lives. After leaving teaching I decided to train with some of the finest teachers and practioners in the USA and here in Britain, including:

  • Omni Hypnosis Training Centre
  • Silver Institute of Scientific Hypnosis
  • United Kingdom Hypnotherapy Training College
  • International Institute of Clinical and Medical Hypnosis

I am a member of The National Guild of Hypnotists the oldest and largest organisation of its kind. Professional membership in the NGH signifies that an individual possesses specific qualifications and agrees to abide by a strict code of ethics.

IBS

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders, with a prevalence estimated at between 10% and 20%.

Patients. If you are considering hypnotherapy / CBT for IBS. Ask your doctor if he / she will fund your treatment. The NICE Guidelines for IBS allow doctors to pay for hypnosis / CBT for IBS treatment after 12 months of non effective drug therapy.
