Hypnotherapy and its uses

July 03, 2012

Het wordt tijd dat hypnotherapie veel vaker wordt ingezet. De kracht van hypnose is niet te onderschatten. Je kan er zoveel mooie dingen mee doen, dat het vreemd is dat er zo weinig goede voorlichting over is. Gelukkig zijn er veel vooraanstaande ziekenhuizen en universiteiten die de kracht omarmd hebben en er wel mee werken.

Hypnotherapy for problems

One of the problems that can be well addressed by hypnotherapy is PDS, or irritable bowel syndrome. A lot of hospitals are increasingly turning to hypnotherapy treatment because the success rate is as much as 60% higher than regular care!

Doctors at the burn center at University Hospital in Washington very often use hypnosis to relieve pain from patients. Hypnotherapy is successfully used here to combat pain. It works very effectively and can help a lot of people.

The hospital of the Université Catholique de Louvain (UCL) in Louvain-la-Neuve is a pioneer in the use of hypnosis in the operating room. The use of hypnosis in mastectomy speeds recovery and reduces the risk of metastases, according to Belgian anesthesiologists June 2011 at a European congress. A very interesting development.

In addition, hypnotherapy is great for use in childbirth. Women can learn self-hypnosis in order to get through their labor more pain-free or even be completely pain-free. Now women often want an epidural, while hypnosis is a perfect alternative and much healthier for the child.

Several hospitals affiliated with Harvard Medical School use hypnosis to speed the recovery period after surgery. In one of the most compelling studies to date, a Harvard researcher reports that hypnosis shortened the normal time required for bone fracture healing by several weeks. Interesting right?

Hypnotherapy mainstream

Fortunately, hypnotherapy is becoming more common. When it comes to quitting smoking or losing weight, it is already commonly used. For losing weight, unfortunately, it is still too little, because the information is very poor. The other day I spoke to a woman in hospital who had had a stomach reduction, but still had binge eating. That urge can be remedied with hypnosis.

For example, did you know that Peter Beense (the singer) threw hot dogs in the blender and took it that way, after he had a gastric band? Of course that is incredible and quite bizarre, but if you understand people's unconscious automatic processes, it makes sense. That unconscious program has to be addressed, otherwise the effect is just zero and it costs society money.

Hypnotherapy can save society money if used properly and more education is provided. With this article, I hope to contribute once again. Leave a comment and you can win a great prize again this month!
