Some Doctors Dentists Are Using Hypnosis Once hypnosis was only an entertainment medium. But today it is being used medically more and more in the treatment of many conditions. There are actually physicians who are just specializing in the use of hypnosis.

It has proven effective in such situations as stopping thumb- sucking, nail-biting, and excessive drinking. And, recently Jt was proved to he a valuable aid in treating musculo-skeletal disorders such as bursitis. Hypnosis for medical conditions should always be in the hands of trained experts. The amateur hypnotist could potentially cause harm, for there is still a great deal to learn about how it actually works and t's possible side effects. Do not expose yourself to hypnosis unless your physician advises it.
