Better Living With Hypnosis
As a Clinical Hypnotherapist I have been a major proponent and supporter of hypnosis and the effect it can have on people. I have helped people with different problems such as wanting to quit smoking to getting rid of a phobia. I have helped people reduce the amount of pain they are in and I have also helped people gain confidence in their every day lives. I believe that hypnosis can help a very wide range of people and the issues they face.
In a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis, research was performed by Carol Ginandes (Harvard Medical School) and Patricia Brooks (Union Institute). They were researching whether hypnosis could aide in healing after a surgery.
The study included eighteen women who were undergoing breast reduction surgery. These eighteen women were broken into three groups of six. One group received normal care. The second group received counseling by a psychologist. And the third group went to hypnotherapy sessions before and after their surgery. Both the psychological support group and the hypnosis group received eight sessions once a week.
