Richard L Erickson PhD HHCP LPHt @ 12:31 am:
In today’s ever increasing stressful socioeconomic environment the advantages of Medical hypnosis are being accepted by main stream medicine as a viable adjunct to conventional pharmacotherapy or other medical protocol.
Unfortunately, persistent myths, half-truths, and suspicions still surround hypnosis, which compel most people to continue to seek prescription medications or alternative procedures rather than hypnotherapy for certain problems like weight gain, smoking, nail biting, bed wetting, thumb sucking, test-taking, sports enhancement, certain addictions, pain issues, phobias, and disorders.
The troubling aspects of these Medications and procedures; they mainly concentrate only on the “effect(s)” of an issue,” while often having multiple side effects that may be excessive or even potentially fatal.
By contrast, Medical hypnotherapy safely helps decrease or even eliminates effect(s), while simultaneously assaulting the “cause” of the issue. It therefore, is important to understand, as the therapist helps the patient redirect or even eliminate negative habits, emotions, or perceptions, and/or raise pain threshold, self-esteem, and confidence issues, the patient is not treated with hypnosis but rather through hypnosis.
Although, over-the-counter books on hypnosis may be informative as to the scientific nature of the hypnotic phenomenon, and many Store bought CD’s or internet sites can offer general repetitive response guided imagery, these methods usually have low efficacy long-term.
Choosing the right qualified hypnotherapist with proper training, credentials, rapport, and past efficacy is therefore very important. One-on-one personalized sessions are most desirable over groups, in correcting conditioned habitual responses or medical conditions, as each patient has different and sometime multiple past and present sensitizing events.
