[Kalkor] Anyone have suggestions for me to improve my methods, the goals are probably
going to remain fairly constant ;-}
{Hermit] Certainly. I strongly recommend that you examine Dylan Morgan, A NOVEL HYPNOTIC INDUCTION (http://www.hypno1.co.uk/art_novel_induction.htm)
You will note that his technique can quite trivially be worked into your sequence, that his two phase sequence links neatly to your own, and it provides a mechanism for leaving your patients even more relaxed, and possibly assisted in ways which extend far beyond the massage session*. You may also find that the technique provides a useful bridges across your "persona shift."
You should note that you have already the client's permission to relax (and touch) them, and discussing the techniques used is not prerequisite and may indeed be counterproductive as many people have a latent fear of hypnosis.
If you are interested in futher evaluation, you might find Dylan's bio (http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/%7Edylanwad/morganic/bio_morgan.htm) useful - as well as his excellent book, The Principles of Hypnosis (http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/%7Edylanwad/morganic/ph_contents.htm) which you can read online or order from his web site http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/%7Edylanwad/morganic/ph.htm (where a number of complementary reviews from people representing professional groups in the field may be found).

*e.g. Helping clients exercise, stop chewing their nails or quit smoking. Yes, all three of these are areas where hypnotherapy is proven to be largely successful (but not guaranteed).
