Clients are mostly young women concerned about their health and about environmental impact
A growing number of vapers are seeking help from hypnotherapists to quit amid concern about the health and environmental impact of e-cigarettes.
Hypnotherapists in England and Scotland have noted a rise in the number of clients, particularly young women, who want to quit the habit. Lydia Johnson, a clinical hypnotherapist and founder of the London Clinic of Hypnotherapy, takes 30 bookings a week and says about seven are linked to vaping. Previously, more people would come to her about smoking but she has noted a shift.
“It’s a big percentage,” Johnson said. “Of course, it’s so appealing to the younger generation, even down to my son’s age. They look like sweets or highlighter pens.”
