What is then the place for hypnosis? I find hypnosis to be an interesting alternative for that gray zone where neither psychology nor traditional medicines have good results. An example of those applications is Weight Loss, Smoking Cessation, Chronic Anxiety and Stress, Insomnia, Natural Childbirth, etc. Why do you think hypnosis works? As you know when we take resolutions with the best intentions in the world, we get into an internal battle. An example of this is when someone is on a diet. What is the number one thought in his or her mind? Yes, food! So the second she is getting off this diet, guess what, those foods are gone. Hypnosis works on the subconscious part of our mind, the non-arguing part, so changes take place easily and effortlessly. I always get a smile on my face when I catch myself doing something that I know is a direct consequence of the suggestions I got in hypnosis, like saying no thank you to food I would normally have swallowed up in the past. Why do you have such an interest in hypnosis? Interestingly, I am a medical doctor who happens to think that we are over-medicated. The consumption of medication is constantly rising and we all know that when we take a pill, there are side-effects associated with it, sometimes creating more problems. I always get concerned when they take a medication off the market because they had "unexplained deaths" with people on this medication. It is obvious that everyone should have a good doctor that they see regularly. I see modern hypnosis as a complement to medicine. If a person is highly overweight, her blood pressure tends to rise, her sugar levels increase, her arteries get clogged, etc. Her doctor will do the follow-up and take all necessaries measures to ensure the best. But where can this person go to find help in losing weight, getting motivation for exercises, diminishing her stress level·etc? This is where hypnosis can play a very interesting, complementary and natural role. Hypnosis is very powerful because it works by bypassing the critical factor of the conscious mind. This way, more positive and healthy suggestions can be input in the subconscious and result in easy changes. The most impressive application of hypnosis for me is when I saw the movie of a woman who was having a caesarian section with hypnosis as the sole anesthesia and was singing during the whole procedure. In fact, doctor James Eisdale (1808-1859), a surgeon, performed hundreds of surgeries in Calcutta (some major ones like amputations) with only hypnosis as anesthesia. He actually reported a postoperative death rate of 5% while the current rate at that period was over 50%. This shows you that when you go into surgery with the proper mind set, you recover much better, a proven scientific fact. This convinced me. Articles Written by Dr. Fiset:
