Water Hammer /air trapped in water pipes

We have what I think is called a "water hammer" inn our water pipes. Every time we use a tap/shower/toilet the pipes scream and shake for a couple of minutes.

Do we need a plumber? Or would it sort itself out by turning off the stopcock and running all the cold taps? @PigletJohn, can you help ?
