1. Educational and Training Purpose

NGH India Chapter offers professional certification training in hypnosis under the framework of the National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH), USA. The programme is educational and vocational in nature. It trains practitioners in the clinical application of hypnosis as a complementary discipline.

Participation in this programme does not constitute medical treatment, psychological therapy, or any form of clinical intervention for the student. The training is designed to equip practitioners with skills and knowledge — not to provide personal therapeutic outcomes to participants during the course of training.

2. Not a Substitute for Medical or Psychological Care

The information on this website, including articles, descriptions of hypnotherapy, and references to research, is provided for general educational purposes only. Nothing on this website should be construed as medical advice, psychological diagnosis, or a recommendation to pursue hypnotherapy in place of qualified medical or mental health treatment.

If you are experiencing a medical or psychological condition, you should consult a qualified healthcare professional before pursuing any complementary or alternative practice, including hypnotherapy.

3. Individual Results

Testimonials and case references on this website reflect individual experiences. Results vary between individuals and are influenced by a wide range of personal, clinical, and contextual factors. No specific outcome is guaranteed for any participant in the certification programme or for any client of a certified practitioner.

The testimonials presented on this website are genuine accounts from real practitioners and clients. They are not presented as typical results and should not be interpreted as a guarantee of specific outcomes.

4. Scope of NGH Certification

The NGH Certified Consulting Hypnotist (CCH) credential is an internationally recognised hypnosis certification issued by the National Guild of Hypnotists, USA. It is a professional credential in hypnosis and is not equivalent to a licence to practise psychology, medicine, or psychotherapy in India or any other jurisdiction.

Holders of the NGH CCH certification are trained to work within the scope of hypnosis as defined by the NGH. They are not qualified by this certification alone to diagnose or treat medical or psychiatric conditions. Practitioners are responsible for operating within the legal and professional frameworks applicable in their jurisdiction.

6. Third-Party Practitioners

Graduates of the NGH India Chapter programme practise independently.
