Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis and its benefit to the Medical and wider community of humanity!

While hypnotherapy is an ever-evolving healing methodology, one that was officially recognised as far back as 1958, it is more advanced in some countries than in others! In countries like the UK, EU, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States, hypnosis is both well established and effective in being self-regulated. However, there are some moves towards regulation and that may be how it should be? As long as it doesn't stifle the mental creativity that is so evidently obvious in some well experienced and long-serving practitioners. Perhaps one of the best benefits of this more open approach, is that it will become far more accepting of the immense value of Hypnosis in the Medical Profession?

This interesting video (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-13664587) demonstrates how it can assist Doctors to help patients to create better treatment outcomes. Preoperative hypnosis is nothing new and the benefits can be enormous, e.g. we will be less tense as the surgeon makes his incision, which leads to better healing of the wound and less scar tissue. It also leads to less trauma, the body cannot tell the difference between a Dr. and a mugger. When we are cut, it matters not whether we are cut by a Dr. or a mugger; the body will respond subconsciously to the invasive intervention.

The effects of this, of course, will vary with each of us; but there is always an effect! Much, if not most, of how we respond seems to be directly linked to our psyche and general worldview. If we see the world as a relatively safe place, we are less prone to experience negative emotions, e.g. as anxiety or fear. And it is this worldview/mindset, that affects our response to life.
