HYPNOSIS

Hypnosis and Medicine:
Some of health care professionals in today’s medicine use hypnosis as a tool to create a calmer, and more relax condition for their patients under different medical procedures. Hypnosis is believed and practically proven to be able to minimize the pain with childbirth, help the body heal faster from surgery, lose less blood, and recover quicker.
“Hypnosis must be used in conjunction with and under the referral of a licensed medical professional” (video jug, life experience on film, Dr. J. McGrail). For instance a hypnotherapist must work with a medical professional like a physician, a dentist, a psychiatrist, or a psychotherapist. It has been proven by the clinical studies hypnosis can cope with the side effects of the chemotherapy, radiation therapy and cancer.(graph)????
When people get sick or feel pain, they will refer the ache to their physical part however 15 to 25% of the recognition of ache is related to the physical perception and the rest is related to emotional aspect (video jug, life experience on film, Dr. J. McGrail). Hypnosis is a very powerful tool to lessen the effect of pain; it has been also very beneficial on therapy and meditation.

Hypnosis and therapy
There is this general idea that hypnosis is the same as therapy. “Hypnosis is not therapy. Hypnosis is a state of consciousness” (video jug, life experience on film, Dr. J. McGrail).

Hypnosis and meditation
Meditation and hypnosis have loads of similarities while if you consider the aim of these two concepts you will find them with different aims. When you are in the state of conscious by hypnosis the emotions you experience is the same feeling during this state with meditation. Albeit the feeling on the state of conscious is same but the duration of these tools are different. Hypnosis has been considered a short term therapy effect some change while meditation is used for long term and also in general comfort. It has been recommended to use meditation as a long term implement to uphold ones well-being. But the ambiguous aspect is: what would happen to the brain during hypnosis? Are there certain parts of the brain that are affected?
