Hypnosis and Contortion

[stretchingdude]

So this might seem a little odd...haha

I'm a 23 year old male contortionist, and I've just stumbled upon hypnosis and it got me thinking if there was any application that I could use it for in my training. Obviously in contortion being very relaxed so that you can get the deepest stretch is important. When I'm training I sometimes have my coach stretch me and I'm wondering if there is something I can do so that he can push me further/deeper utilizing hypnosis in some way. I have been looking at the self hypnosis anesthetisis and I'm wondering if I could apply that to my legs or back when I'm stretching perhaps? These ideas might seem a bit silly...lol, but I'm just curious as to what you guys think

would not get past any ethical hypnotist/hypnotherapist.

Perhaps with more practice and in the meantime, enjoy your career.

Reads as interesting! Be well~Pood

You can absolutely change your body with hypnosis, including flexibility and reach/stretch. I'm looking for a video for you by a professional sports enhancement hypnotist that I've seen--demonstrating just that, flexibility and stretch. :)

I wouldnt advise anesthesia, you might tear something inadvertantly, and I suspect that would be hard on your career, and your body as well.

Deep relaxation, yep, but you dont need hypnosis for that.

Other than Las Vegas, cirque du soleil, and those web sites where everyone wears a mask, where does a contortionist find work?

curious,

that if poster is in the USA we are not allowed to do anesthesia without a written referral from a practitioner of the healing arts. PERIOD. FULL STOP. Does he really think his MD would give him that piece of paper?

Connie's idea seems to be very valid and could help him do it ethically.

A good hundred years ago my mother made me take tap and acrobatics when in grade school. At that age it was fun and everything was not firmly in place as it is now. We did it slowly.....year by year.

Merlin may just have some very good ideas here as she never thinks inside a box, even one without borders.
