Hypnosis isn’t magic

“I founded hypnu® because I want to change that such an effective tool as hypnosis is still tainted with so many myths and prejudices,” explains Johannes Jäschke (founder of hypnu®).

“Most people only know hypnosis from show hypnosis, where people on stage forget their names or act as if the hypnotist is magically controlling them.

However, this has nothing to do with “real” hypnosis. Because hypnosis originally comes from medicine. Even before anesthesia was invented, healers used hypnosis to switch off their patients’ pain during surgeries. Hard to believe, but true: Even today, German health insurance companies, for example, reimburse hypnosis at the dentist if there is an allergy to narcotics.

How many people could benefit from something so powerful as hypnosis? But they don’t dare to try because they confuse hypnosis with magic, voodoo, or the like.

Having personally experienced how well hypnosis helps with falling asleep, I knew that I had to change something. So I started hypnu® to remove the fear of hypnosis from more people so they could use it for themselves and live a better life.”
