Terms & Conditions
NOTE: Hypnotist/Practitioner are used interchangeably in the following document.
I am voluntarily undertaking a program of self-hypnosis under the direction of a trained professional hypnotist, James Hazlerig. I have been advised by James Hazlerig of the scope of hypnosis practice, and I give my full consent to receiving hypnosis sessions from James Hazlerig. I understand that it is up to me to follow instructions to experience hypnosis as I choose. I give James Hazlerig my permission and cooperation to guide me in a hypnotic experience. I understand that hypnosis is an interactive process, that results vary, and that the above-named practitioner may not guarantee results.
I understand that hypnosis is not a replacement for medical treatment, psychological or psychiatric services, or counseling. James Hazlerig does not provide therapy nor counseling, and I will regard anything he says as no more than friendly advice.
I also understand that the hypnotist is not a medical doctor and does not treat, prescribe for, or diagnose any condition. I understand that the practitioner is a facilitator of hypnosis and is not practicing any other profession that requires a license under the laws of the State of Texas.
I am aware and understand that in some cases it may be necessary for the practitioner to respectfully touch my shoulder(s), hand, wrist, arm, neck, or forehead in order to assist me in relaxation. I give the practitioner permission and consent to do so in order to help me establish a beneficial experience of hypnosis.
I have been advised that I am free to terminate any or all sessions at any time. I have agreed to participate in each session to the best of my ability. I have accurately provided background information as requested by the hypnotist. I understand that confidentially regarding my sessions will be honored between James Hazlerig and me. This same confidentially is respected when working with minors under the age of eighteen.
I understand that James Hazlerig does not prescribe medication, and I agree to continue taking all medications prescribed by my doctor unless my doctor advises me otherwise.
