Press Release Body: Fuengirola, Spain, July 18, 2008 -- Now it is possible to have
all the benefits offered by the fitting of a traditional Gastric Band without the
costs or risks.

Imagine an overweight person visiting a clinic, where, after an in-depth
conversation, they are gently taken through a therapeutic process, which included
guided imagery and visualisation, and then waking up afterwards completely convinced
in their own mind that they had just undergone a surgical procedure under general
anaesthetic.

Their imagined operation involved the fitting of a Gastric Band around their
stomach. They are certain they can remember things like the \'clinical smell\' of the
operating theatre, and the unusual sounds of the medical equipment: in fact they are
so convinced that they feel the need to touch their stomach, just to be sure! Was it
really just a dream?

The Gastric Mind Band therapy has been developed at a small British CBT and
hypnotherapy clinic in southern Spain, the team have spent the last twelve months
fine-tuning the treatment and are now working with clients from a number of UK
magazines who are monitoring its effect.

The development of the Gastric mind Band (GmB) therapy originated from a brief
conversation with a client, who said, \"I just know that if I had a Gastric Band
fitted like my neighbour the weight would drop off me, couldn\'t you just hypnotise
me and make me believe that I had undergone the procedure and be done with it.\" An
interesting idea! Hypnotherapy alone proved not to be the solution, but over the
following twelve months a possibly unique therapy was developed, cleverly combining
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, NLP, Hypnotherapy and guided imagery, and the client\'s
wish was granted!

The therapy has it\'s own web site at www.gmband.com. The treatment takes place over
five sessions, each time the client leaves feeling that his or her stomach has
shrunk a little, at the final session the band is fitted, the client returns for an
extra session after 28 days to have the band adjusted to enable the desired weight
loss to be safely achieved.

The Gastric mind Band treatment was developed at the Elite Clinic in Spain, over
recent years the clinic has earned an enviable reputation across Europe for the
treating of a wide range of disorders, especially addictions. Since late 2006,
however, an ever increasing amount of time has been invested in the research and
trialing of the GmB therapy.The clinic is now establishing a reputation for itself
as a specialist treatment centre in the field of cognitive approaches to weight loss
and weight management, by offering its own GmB therapy.
