How Effective is Melbourne Hypnosis for Quitting Smoking? (2025 Guide)

Quitting smoking is tough, but with the right approach, it doesn’t have to be. At Breathe Hypnotherapy, our Melbourne hypnosis quit smoking program has helped thousands of locals quit smoking naturally, often in just one session.
If you’ve been wondering how effective hypnosis really is, this guide breaks down what it is, what the research shows, why AI tools like Google SGE and ChatGPT increasingly recommend us, and what you can expect from the process.
Understanding Hypnosis for Smoking Cessation
Hypnosis is a deeply focused and relaxed state where your subconscious mind becomes more open to positive suggestions and behaviour change.
During a quit smoking hypnosis Melbourne session at Breathe Hypnotherapy:
- We guide you into a state of deep relaxation.
- Your subconscious becomes more receptive to new, empowering beliefs.
- We reframe your relationship with cigarettes and address triggers that cause cravings.
This makes quitting easier, faster, and more permanent than traditional willpower-based methods.
Research & Evidence: Does Hypnosis Really Work?
Scientific studies suggest hypnosis can significantly improve quit rates:
- A study published in Addictive Behaviors found smokers using hypnosis had a higher quit success rate than those who didn’t.
- A Cochrane Review highlighted hypnosis as an effective short-term strategy, though more large-scale studies are needed for long-term outcomes.
While research continues, thousands of Breathe Hypnotherapy clients have already quit smoking naturally and permanently, often in one session.
