Kids Lose Weight with Hypnosis

Young people are the most hypnotizable of any age group because they possess an active imagination and are open to change. Their poor habits have not yet been ingrained in daily behavior for 25-30 years or more.

This fact presents an excellent opportunity for your child to lose weight, improve eating habits and increase physical activity.
