Gareth Amos - Hypnotherapist, Emotion & Body Worker

14/03/2026

I’m proud to be a member of several professional organisations that support high standards, ethical practice and ongoing learning within hypnotherapy and wellbeing.

My work combines professional training, compassion and advanced techniques to support people with anxiety, stress, unwanted habits, insomnia, phobias, confidence and emotional wellbeing.

Using Solution Focused Hypnotherapy and modern neuroscience, I help clients work with the subconscious mind to reduce stress, break limiting beliefs and create positive, lasting change 🧠✨

Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, fear, emotional overwhelm or habits that no longer serve you, my aim is to guide you towards calm, clarity and confidence.

Alongside hypnotherapy, I also offer:

• Cupping therapy
• Lymphatic drainage massage
• Indian head massage
• Reiki healing

Based in Poynton near Stockport, I work with clients across Cheshire and Manchester, with hypnotherapy sessions also available online.

Your lymphatic system plays a vital role in how your body heals, recovers and maintains balance.

When lymph flow becomes sluggish, it can lead to swelling, fluid retention, fatigue and that heavy, “puffy” feeling many people experience.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, rhythmic treatment designed to stimulate lymphatic flow, helping your body clear excess fluid, reduce inflammation and support natural detoxification 🌿

This specialised technique works with the lymphatic pathways rather than the muscles, helping to support:

• Post-surgery recovery
• Fluid retention and swelling
• Bruising and scar healing
• Immune function
• Digestive bloating and inflammation
• Headaches and sinus congestion
• Overall wellbeing and relaxation

Many people are surprised by how calming and restorative MLD can feel — supporting both physical recovery and nervous system relaxation.

As a Clinical Sports Therapist, I use true manual lymphatic drainage techniques and tailor each session to your needs, whether you're recovering from surgery, managing inflammation, or simply wanting to support your body's natural balance.

Based in Poynton and working with clients across Stockport, Cheshire and Greater Manchester.

If your body feels heavy, swollen or in need of reset, lymphatic drainage may help you feel lighter, clearer and more energised ✨

When your lymphatic system is functioning at its best, your body works more efficiently, reducing swelling, supporting immunity, aiding healing, and maintaining natural balance.

I offer manual lymphatic drainage massage (MLD), a gentle yet highly effective treatment designed to stimulate lymphatic flow, reduce inflammation, clear fluid retention, and calm the nervous system. Whether you’re recovering after surgery, feeling sluggish, or wanting to improve your overall wellbeing, MLD provides a powerful way to help your body feel lighter, clearer, and more energised.

Based in Poynton, I provide lymphatic drainage massage to clients across Stockport, Cheshire and Greater Manchester.

Hypnotherapy for phobias provides a calm, gentle and scientifically informed way to retrain the brain’s fear response.

With the right support, you can break automatic patterns of panic and begin responding with clarity and control.

Fear can feel overwhelming, even when you know you’re safe.

Phobias around needles, animals, driving, confined spaces, medical settings, heights, choking, public speaking and more can trigger an instant and intense reaction.

The reassuring truth is that most phobias are learned responses, which means they can also be unlearned.

Using Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, I help retrain the brain’s fear response in a calm, gentle and neuroscience-informed way 🧠✨

Hypnotherapy can help you:

• Reduce the automatic fear response
• Ease physical symptoms of panic
• Reframe unhelpful thought patterns
• Build calm, confident reactions
• Regain control in situations that once felt overwhelming

Every session is personalised to you, your experiences and your pace.

You don’t have to keep living around fear.
It’s possible to move forward with greater calm and confidence 🌿

Ever find your mind replaying conversations… analysing decisions… or running through every possible “what if” at 2am?

Overthinking isn’t a weakness. It’s often your brain trying to keep you safe, just working a little too hard.

I’ve written a new blog exploring mental loops, why they happen, and practical ways to calm an overactive mind without fighting your thoughts or trying to switch them off completely.

If your mind struggles to slow down, this might really resonate with you.

Read here: https://garethamos.com/overthinking-mental-loops-how-to-calm/

Sometimes calm doesn’t come from thinking more… but from learning how to step out of the loop.

Learn why overthinking happens, how mental loops form, and gentle ways to calm anxiety and quiet the mind with practical regulation strategies.

Even the most capable athletes can struggle with performance anxiety, self-doubt, nerves, pressure or loss of focus.

I work with athletes who look confident on the outside but internally feel the weight of expectation — and those internal challenges can impact consistency, enjoyment and results.

Using Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, a neuroscience-informed approach grounded in neuroscience, I help reshape the subconscious patterns that influence performance 🧠✨

Through sport hypnotherapy, I help you:

• Stay calm and focused in competition 🎯
• Overcome nerves, fear of failure and past setbacks 💪
• Strengthen confidence and motivation 🔥
• Reduce overthinking 🧘‍♂️
• Develop a resilient, winning mindset 🏆
• Improve flow and performance focus ⚡
• Build strong pre-competition readiness 🚀
• Return to sport with confidence after injury 🔄

By calming the mind and reducing performance anxiety, you gain the clarity needed to thrive under pressure.

Every session is personalised to your sport, your goals and your unique challenges — whether you’re on the pitch, the track, the mat or the starting line.

My role isn’t to change who you are.
It’s to help you unlock the focused, confident version of you that already has the ability to perform at your best.

Calm. Clear. Confident. ✨

If you’re ready to strengthen your mindset and elevate your performance, I’m here to support you.

Over the years I’ve had the privilege of working and volunteering across track and field, supporting juniors finding their confidence, adults discovering what they’re capable of, and more recently being part of the amazing community at Poynton Runners . This is the best volunteer role in local communities I could ever have.

Coaching has never really felt like giving time away. It’s felt like gaining perspective, connection, laughter, muddy trainers, early mornings, and countless moments watching people surprise themselves in the pursuit of being the best version of themselves they can possibly be. Growing as a coach has also helped me to grow as a person.

A genuine “look at me for a moment” post… but today I’m allowing it 😊

Grateful for every athlete, runner, coach, and friend who’s been part of the journey. I am grateful for each of you that has put your trust in me for support.

Here’s to the next lap.
