Fochta Method of Suggestion

The Vocht method of suggestion is a method of hypnotherapy that allows you to achieve the required depth of a hypnotic state by alternating rapid immersion and rapid withdrawal of the patient. This method was developed by the German physician Franz Alexander Focht at the beginning of the 20th century. It was based on the theory that by quickly bringing a patient into and out of a hypnotic state, it could lead to a more profound and lasting change in consciousness.

The Focht method is based on the idea that the patient has several levels of consciousness that can be achieved through hypnosis. When a patient enters hypnosis, he enters a deeper level of consciousness where his thoughts and feelings become more manageable and suggestible. However, to reach this level, it is necessary to quickly put the patient into hypnosis and quickly bring him out of this state.

To do this, the Focht method involves the use of special techniques, such as rapid blinking of the eyes, breathing through the nose or mouth, as well as the use of key words that help the patient quickly move into a hypnotic state. In addition, the Focht method involves the use of special sound effects, such as the ticking of a clock or the rustling of paper, to create a feeling of immersion in hypnosis.

Although the Focht method has no scientific basis, it is widely used in psychotherapy and in some cases can be effective in treating various mental disorders. However, like any other method of hypnotherapy, the Focht method requires professional training and experience working with patients.

Fokhta Method of suggestion A method of hypnotherapy that does not encourage the use of deep hypnosis techniques, in which the patient is asked to immerse himself and quickly emerge from a state of sleep. This way the required depth of hypnotization is achieved. It was invented by Focht, a psychiatrist from Germany.

During sessions of this method, suggestion is carried out in such a way that the patient naturally, as if voluntarily, plunges into deeper levels of influence by concentrating attention on individual parts of his body. This is done so that the patient can move from light levels of self-hypnosis to deeper levels of influence. Then the suggested images gradually shift in the person’s consciousness.

The main task of this type of suggestion is to establish bilateral perception between the doctor (hypnotist) and the patient. The doctor must concentrate his attention on what he is conveying to the patient and monitor how his subconscious reacts to the hypnotic influence. The patient, for his part, must try to understand the content of the suggestion and translate it into the sphere of consciousness. In this case, he will receive those consequences from these suggestions that correspond to the ultimate goal of treatment. **Important!** It is important to remember that the technique of such hypnosis is a psychotherapeutic method that requires a long time to master and practice, although its application, when used correctly, has a positive effect. Another important point is the psychological connection between the patient and the hypnotherapist. Therefore, it is important to make a professional choice of doctor.
