Do you know that medical hypnosis was developed by some medical doctors more than 150 years ago? Every health care practitioner knows what hypnosis is, but almost no one uses hypnosis as an adjunct to a treatment for their patients. Why is that? I don’t know. Maybe, it is because they have been trained to be the medical doctors, not hypnotists.
Do you know that James Braid was a medical doctor who has created the word hypnotism that later became hypnosis? Well, practically every one who used to use medical hypnosis more than hundred years ago was a medical doctor!
Of course, there were stage performers who demonstrated the power of hypnosis. But in reality, hypnosis as a peculiar power doesn’t exist! You can’t become influenced by hypnosis because it is a condition, not the power.
Medical hypnosis is a phenomenon
More than 70 years ago soviet doctors used to use hypnosis for painless childbirth. If you ask someone today what he or she thinks about painless childbirth through hypnosis, they will say: That is s crazy! No way! What if hypnosis will affect a child?
So many people believe in medicine and trust their medical doctors. If a doctor recommends you hypnosis, he or she knows that you can relax and feel better through hypnosis. Also, your sleep can improve. Actually, the list of benefits of hypnosis is unlimited.
Patients who had a small number of hypnosis sessions, recover more easily and much quickly after a surgery. Here is a question: if hypnosis is not a magic then how it works?
Medical hypnosis is a natural method to improve your self-esteem
You know already that hypnosis is a condition or a state of your brain activity in which you can accept new ideas without your conscious resistance. Normally, you resist or reject new ideas, because your mind was programmed by your parents, school teachers, movies, books and so on. This is how your beliefs were created in the first place.
Those beliefs very often don’t support you! They even scare you. They are self-limiting beliefs. When your hypnotist works with you, he or she replaces your self-limiting beliefs with better ones that support you. It is like cleaning your garden: bad weed is out, good plants and flowers are planted.
So it is a positive mindset, not hypnosis itself, helps a patients to recover quickly and easily! There are many proofs that the winning army wounded soldiers recovered very quickly, because of their victory mindset.
Mind-body connection is real and it is alive!
It is scientifically proved that positive emotions stimulate every cell of a human body. And negative emotions, especially fear and anger distort and inhibit every organ and every system of a human living organism.
Any emotion is a state of mind. The mind/body connection is real. To stay healthy, strong, happy and successful, you have to experience positive emotions! Reduce your stress, let go of your fears and all other negative emotions, and your body can restore own wellness naturally.
As you may notice already, medical hypnosis can be used by health care practitioners to help their patients feel better. As a result, recovery of a patient can be quick and easy! The good new is you don’t have to go to a medical school to learn hypnosis. Every one can learn medical hypnosis almost instantly.
But of course, to be able to help people with medical hypnosis, you have to learn the art of suggestion, which is not easy at all. I would say that you have to be a gifted hypnotherapist to work with patients successfully. Anyway, special training is needed.
Many medical doctors today know almost nothing about medical hypnosis
I know by experience that almost every medical doctor has an intellectual paradigm that keeps his or her mind closed to a knowledge about hypnosis. Once I met a healthcare practitioner who thought that I can do hypnosis by photo of a person!
The truth about hypnosis is very simple: Every normal human being can benefit from a good hypnotist’s suggestion! Are you a medical doctor? You should learn hypnotherapy, if you want to help your patients relax and feel better.
Here is another truth about hypnosis: Every healthcare practitioner can benefit from hypnosis! A medical profession today is essential. Stress was increased dramatically during covid 19 pandemic. People need stress reduction.
Here are what medical hypnosis can be used for:
1. Stress reduction
2. Anxiety
3. Pain
4. Insomnia
5. Burns healing
6. Headaches
7. Weight loss
8. Smoking
9. Alcoholism
10. Burnout
And much more.
Please understand that medical hypnosis is not magic or panacea. It is an adjunct to a medical treatment. I always keep telling that to all my clients. Also, I say to every my client that the real power is within him or her! It is the power to control your own mind!
Unfortunately many medical doctors “hypnotize” their patients with bad suggestions
Actually every medical doctor is already a hypnotist because he or she is an authoritative person for a patient, just as a priest or a military general. It means that you accept whatever your doc tells you, without any resistance because you believe your doctor!
The problem is almost every medical doctor, except a psychotherapist, is not trained to tell his or her patients positive words! Just imagine, how you feel if your physician tells you that you are fine, nothing is wrong with you. Your recovery success depends on your mindset that is a result of suggestions from your doc!
Today, all people need to be able to stay healthy, strong, happy and successful. Here is a truth: your immune system strength depends on your mindset! Take care of your mind, be able to control it, make a decision to be healthy, wealthy, happy, strong and successful!
