Common Uses Of Hypnosis

The better question is, “For what can’t hypnosis be used?” In actuality there’s nothing for which hypnosis can not be used.

For every known type of operation–even open heart surgery, hypnosis has been successfully used at least once in lieu of anesthesia. Hypnosis is used to control bleeding and facilitate speed of recovery.

The more popularly known uses of hypnosis are for weight loss, stopping smoking, and stress management. Suggestions are used for turning off one’s desire to smoke or eat excessively or non nutritiously and to be relaxed in the face of stressful situation.

In reality, for just about every use, there’s an expert. For instance, from my personal experience in handling dental pain, I can say I’m an expert on painless dentistry and produced a cd program for that purpose. That’s right, you can have fillings, caps, and even root canals without the use of Novocain–that’s how powerful suggestion can be. However, I would not say I’m an expert on painless surgery although what I do with painless dentistry could be easily used with surgery. Common Uses Of Hypnosis
