How many diets have you been on in the last five years?
Keto. Paleo. Fasting. Points. Shakes.
You lose the weight. You feel great for a month. And then, slowly, the stress of life creeps back in. The emotional eating starts. The weight comes back, plus another five pounds for good measure.
This is the heartbreaking cycle of yo-yo dieting. It is not a failure of willpower. It is a signal from your nervous system.
Your body is holding onto weight because, at a deep subconscious level, it believes the weight is keeping you safe. Perhaps you use food to numb loneliness. Perhaps you use it to push down anxiety.
If you try to starve the body without healing the mind, your nervous system will fight you every step of the way.
I am Ken Guzzo, and at my offices in Concord and Sacramento, I help people release weight by addressing the root cause.
My program is not about counting calories. It is about Somatic Mind-Body Healing.
Using hypnosis and neurological tapping, we send a safety signal to your body. We resolve the old traumas and emotional triggers that drive you to the refrigerator late at night.
When your body feels safe, the need for the "armor" of excess weight dissolves.
As a result of this deep inner healing work, you will:
From the San Francisco Bay Area to the Sacramento Valley, clients come to me when they are ready to stop fighting their bodies and start loving them.
"I struggled with my weight for 20 years. Ken helped me understand why I was eating. The weight just started falling off, and I didn't feel deprived. I finally felt safe in my own skin."
The cost of not changing is too high. The impact on your health, your joints, your energy levels, and your self-esteem is real.
You do not have to do this alone. And you do not have to suffer to get results.
Visit us in Sacramento or Concord. Let’s heal the root cause so the weight stays gone forever.

No. Traditional diets rely on willpower and often leave you feeling deprived, punished, or starving. This program shifts your subconscious relationship with food. Our clients consistently report that they naturally eat smaller portions and make smarter food choices without feeling like they are "missing out" or "white-knuckling" through cravings.
The Hypnotic Gastric Band is a safe, non-surgical component of our program. Through advanced clinical hypnosis, we guide your subconscious mind to respond as if your stomach has been physically reduced in size—similar to a surgical gastric bypass, but without the medical risks or recovery time. You will naturally feel full and satisfied after eating much smaller amounts of food. Many clients even report saving significant money on groceries because their portions naturally decrease!
The program is a comprehensive 16-week journey. It includes 8 hours of deep session work, spaced two weeks apart. We do not believe in overnight "quick fixes" that lead to yo-yo dieting. This 4-month timeline is specifically designed to allow your mind and nervous system time to integrate the breakthroughs, reset your physiological set point, and establish permanent, healthy habits.
While hypnotherapy is not a replacement for medical treatment, the collateral benefits of this program are often life-changing. By releasing excess weight, reducing sugar addiction, and calming the nervous system, our clients frequently report dramatic increases in daily energy. Many clients have even shared that their doctors were amazed by natural drops in their blood pressure and stabilized blood sugar levels after completing the program.
