Gastric Band Hypnosis in Brisbane – A Non-Surgical Support Option
Gastric Band Hypnosis offers an alternative to bariatric surgery for Brisbane patients who want to support weight loss through subconscious mindset change. Rather than using physical surgery, this approach helps your brain perceive a virtual gastric band, leading to greater control over portion sizes and reduced emotional eating patterns.
Jeremy Walker works with patients to explore the psychological contributors to weight gain, including beliefs, habits, and triggers around food. This program is designed for adults who are ready to commit to behavioural change and want to improve their relationship with food through focused subconscious work.
What to Expect from Your Hypnosis Sessions
Your Gastric Band Hypnosis program includes four structured sessions with Jeremy. These sessions involve guided hypnosis and strategic coaching to address self-sabotage, impulse eating, portion control, and internal motivation.
Unlike short-term weight loss tactics, Gastric Band Hypnosis focuses on retraining how you think and feel about food. You’ll be guided into a focused, relaxed state where suggestions can influence subconscious beliefs and habits.

How Gastric Band Hypnosis May Support Your Goals
Hypnosis for weight loss focuses on the inner drivers of your eating behaviours. For many people, conscious knowledge of what to eat is not the problem – it’s emotional triggers, habitual snacking, or stress responses that cause setbacks. Gastric Band Hypnosis helps address these deeper patterns.
Many Brisbane patients report:
- A noticeable reduction in appetite
- Less interest in unhealthy foods
- Improved self-esteem and body trust
- Fewer binges or emotionally driven eating
- Motivation to stay consistent without feeling deprived
Five Facts About Gastric Band Hypnosis
- Gastric Band Hypnosis does not involve surgery or medication. It is a mental strategy delivered by a Hypnotherapist to mimic the effects of gastric banding.
- A 2023 study published in the Journal of Obesity Research & Clinical Practice found that virtual gastric band Hypnotherapy may help overweight adults reduce BMI when delivered over four sessions.
- The subconscious mind is responsible for around 95% of habitual behaviour, which is why Hypnotherapy can be more effective than conscious dieting alone.
- Gastric Band Hypnosis is suitable for patients who are not eligible or do not wish to undergo surgery, but still want to address weight-related issues.
- Jeremy’s program includes 4 core sessions over 4–6 weeks, allowing time for the subconscious mind to adopt new patterns that support long-term outcomes.
