Managing physical discomfort through hypnosis should ideally only be used after a medical diagnosis has ruled out a physical problem that should be taken care of by a medical professional. Pain can be an indicator and often serves a purpose. It is a way for your unconscious to alert you to take action. How would you know you were ill if you did not have a pain in some affected part? |
Physical discomfort caused by known problems such as arthritis, injuries, surgeries and child birth can be minimized or eliminated using hypnosis.
Many people have used hypnosis to undergo dental procedures or surgery without drugs. There is much literature available on this subject.
Pain and illness can be both physical and/or mental. Sometimes reframing a mental trauma is all that is required to change a physical condition.
