Did you realise??

In 1958 a report published by an AMA advisory committee on hypnosis, stated: "The use of hypnosis has a recognized place in the medical armamentarium that is a useful technique in the treatment of certain illnesses".

The Wall Street Journal in the October 7th, 2003 issue stated, "Numerous scientifc studies have emerged in recent years showing that the hypnotized mind can exert a real and powerul effect on the body."

In 2005, Harvard did a study regarding the use of pre-operative hypnosis to relieve anxiety and a similar study was done in 2007 at Mt. Sinai Hospital regarding the use of pre-operative hypnosis for breast biopsy patients in speading up healing and reducing the amount of pain medication needed during and after surgery.
