Weight-Loss Hypnotherapist’s Self-Help Book Tops The Amazon Charts

A Beverley-base lifestyle engineer who specialises in gastric-band hypnosis has topped the Amazon bestsellers list in Germany.

Sheila Granger, who is widely considered the world’s leading gastric-band hypnotherapist, has been topping the charts with her 2011 tome “Sheila Granger’s Virtual Gastric Band Workbook: The Solution To The Worldwide Obesity Epidemic” which was co-authored with American Marc Carlin.

Sheila said:

“This just goes to show the international reach of the work I am doing– it’s great that my work is being read across Europe and hopefully it will be making a difference to the lives of many people.”

“I enjoyed writing the book and working with Marc on it and to see it becoming the most bought book in a country of 80 million people is quite a feat.”

“I’m pleased we’ve got to where we have but actually more concerned that it is a source of help and inspiration to the people who buy the book which means they can make positive changes to their lives.”

Sheila Granger developed her weight-loss program which incorporates the Virtual Gastric Band and tested it in clinical trials, recording exceptional results. She has directly and indirectly helped almost 3,000 people from across the world shed more 6,000lbs between them.

Sheila administers the therapy herself at her Molescroft surgery and has personally helped clients lose more than 2,000lbs – while as one of the world’s foremost gastric-band hypnotherapy trainers she has passed on her techniques to dozens of people from across the globe who have in turn helped hundreds of patients.

For the book, Sheila teamed up with Marc Carlin, a consulting hypnotist from New York. Marc uses Sheila’s program for his own clients and the two worked together on the book.
