The Virtual Gastric Band Procedure is Here in the U.S!

No one likes to talk about weight loss – it’s such a depressing topic. When fad diets, pills, gyms and exercise machines fail, people often consider surgery as a last resort. Unitl now they had two just choices: gastric bypass or the more minimally invasive gastric band surgery.

But hope is on the horizon with a third choice –- the Virtual Gastric Band, via hypnosis. There is no surgery, no recovery time, no scarring, and no negative side effects like with real surgery. Following trials in England with 95% success rates, the new Virtual Gastric Band procedure is here in the U.S., and is being offered in Westchester County, NY for the very first time!


Consulting Hypnotist Sara Oppenheim-Somerville is introducing this amazing new program here and she’ll be offering her first group session at Le Petite Spa in January. Sara has undergone intensive training with Sheila Granger, who first developed the innovative, non-invasive program that received the endorsement of Britain’s National Health Service.


Using the power of hypnosis, background sounds of a hospital operating room, and the scents associated with a hospital, Sara virtually “shrinks” her client’s stomach to the size of a golf ball. The entire “procedure” is safe and painless, and the client experiences it all from a comfortable chair.


In simple terms, the client is hypnotized into believing that the Gastric Band surgery has been performed on him or her.

There are just four simple requirements that someone needs to qualify for this virtual procedure:

 One hour of your time, once a week, for four consecutive weeks

 Listening to a short CD once or twice a day, for 28 days

 Easy to follow rules

 A desire to achieve the shape and size that you never thought possible.
