Hypnosis in Medicine

Hypnosis in medicine is a therapeutic technique that uses focused attention and suggestions to help individuals achieve a state of deep relaxation and heightened awareness. This state can enable patients to manage pain, reduce anxiety, and cope with various medical conditions. During hypnosis, a trained practitioner guides the patient, helping them access their subconscious mind, where positive changes can occur. It is often used alongside other treatments and is considered safe for most people, although it may not be suitable for everyone. It’s important to note that hypnosis is not mind control; patients retain their free will and awareness.
