The JOIMETHOD is a hypnosis induction developed in 2007 by Atlanta-based hypnotherapist and coach, John Owens. Its purpose is for use during hypnotherapy sessions (deep stage trance hypnosis). This hypnosis induction technique was designed for unresponsive or difficult subjects. It has been claimed that in the case of subjects up to seventeen years of age, alternate hypnotherapeutic techniques may work better because of children's and teens' lack of ability to concentrate. In this induction technique, it is stated that the subject would achieve the following: Age Regression, Age Progression, Hallucination (Visual and Auditory and in some cases Gustatory), Eye Closure (without the hypnotist asking), Hypersuggestiblity (Overload of the conscious mind), Time distortion, Deep relaxation of all muscles, Somnambulism (REM or Rapid Eye Movement), Coma State (total immobility and in most cases deep sleep) and Amnesia. While the subject is in this deep stage of hypnosis, his or her subconscious mind would be programmed with various goals as discussed with the hypnotist prior to the session. This hypnotherapy technique eschews the use of "physical" or "eye" contact with the subject, while the subject maintains a relaxed position. The hypnotist's voice and tone are key elements to this technique. JOIMETHOD hypnosis is explained in the e-books Clinical Hypnosis: Why And How It Works and The JOIMETHOD Induction.
