Medical Hypnosis
Hypnosis as been around since man first developed cognitive ability. People have been performing self-hypnosis since they have been able to focus on a subject or daydream. Hypnosis has been recognized by the AMA as a legitimate medical treatment since 1958. Physicians rarely do hypnosis with their patients anymore because they simply don’t have time. A Medical Doctor would be the ideal person to perform Medical Hypnosis because they have the authority and often see their patients at times of intense emotion. These are conditions that set the stage for successful hypnotherapy. The issue is that the cost of doing business for a physician is just to great to invest the time for a hypnosis intervention.
