Hypnotherapy - The Best Complimentary Therapy
Hypnotherapy is a complimentary therapy that has been helping people for more than one hundred years. Hypnotherapists can help with a wide variety of psychological, physical, and behavioral problems including substance abuse, anxiety, stress relief and weight loss.
There are many types of therapy that you may be given if you suffer from a certain problem. Hypnotherapy can be offered alongside psychotherapy or counseling as it is intended to help create healthy changes in your brain's subconscious patterns through hypnosis. A therapist often employs hypnosis mixed with some other type of treatment to assist the patient in overcoming their problem. Hypnotherapists can help to alleviate the symptoms or cures a patient of the problems they are suffering.
One of the aims of hypnotherapy is to change patients' reactions and responses to certain triggers that usually result in behavior or thinking patterns. For example, some people suffer from anxiety and panic attacks; when they get anxious they feel like they are going to have a panic attack. A hypnotherapist helps them by realigning their thought patterns so that their reaction will be different, which can help them keep calm through their anxiety attacks. Suddenly, instead of panicking when an anxiety attack comes about, you start thinking about something else, feeling relaxed, and your body will take over and keep you calm throughout.
Hypnotherapy is a relatively short treatment, usually lasting no more than one hour per session. The patient usually spends at least an hour in the chair, sometimes much longer. The hypnotherapist will ask you questions to determine what it is that you need to overcome, and they will help you to focus on the problem so that it can be overcome.
Some people find that they need multiple treatments in order to change their responses and thoughts about certain things. For example, a person may have an anxiety attack where they feel breathless or their heart is racing. They often just try to ignore it and move on, but the hypnotherapist will help them to think about other things to help them be more relaxed in these situations.
In order for therapy to work, the patient must make an agreement with the therapist that either they will do whatever they are told or they will be given hypnosis. If the patient agrees that they are willing to let go and allow themselves to be controlled by the therapist, then everything should improve with their condition.

Readers of this Blog are well aware of the damaging results that come from being turned into a Human Guinea Pig by the quacks and charlatans that masquerade as legitimate physicians. The term "Molecular Medicine" is a misnomer if there ever was one, and it is becoming more and more apparent to all informed people that the majority of Doctors practicing in this field are really just interested in test tube procedures at best and profit at worst. A few years back I was confronted with an issue where I had been told by my primary physician that he "was not willing to operate" on my right shoulder, which was something that I have been dealing with for over two years. The problem was that at age 60 I still had the ability to lift a heavy 5 gallon bucket and fill the same myself. The doctor said that it had been a "blood clot" and that he would not operate on me. At the time I thought "Well, this is ok". However, midway through November of last year, while changing my batteries in my smoke detectors, they stopped working. I took some time off of work and went to my primary physician who told me that he indeed would have to operate on me as the clots were still lodged in my shoulder. After some discussion with the surgeon, he said that if I caused other problems with my arm and hand, they would have to take it out. I decided to try "alternative therapies" rather than surgery.
One of the first alternatives recommended was "EFT", Energy Field Therapy which is a seemingly scientific term, but in actuality is just touchy-feely; EFT is supposedly a great tool for dealing with illness. (Note: The term Energy therapy has been used interchangeably to describe Quantum Touch or the Biofield Theory / Biofield Therapy which is a much more accurate method of healing). I was led to a practitioner through an advertisement on the California Board of Registered Nursing website.
The first session with "Dr. Susan" took about an hour. There were about ten or more patients in the waiting room. She covered a lot of ground in that one hour by asking me a lot of questions and then attempting to diagnose me based upon my answers. She did not actually claim to have any medical background at all, but "Dr". Susan did have some (apparent) medical training through correspondence courses that she had taken online in her free time from various websites. Also, "Dr. Susan" used "complementary" or "alternative therapies", hence the term "Dr." not having any official or legal meaning. The practitioner was trained in something called "Biofield Theory" which is basically putting your hands either on top of the head or feet of your patient and allowing a transfer of energy to take place that supposedly heals.
As I said, this so-called treatment by this lady turned out to be nothing more than manipulative and deceptive psychotherapy as well as Chinese medicine herbal remedies disguised as nutrition therapy, so called "touchy-feely energy work". Between the phone calls I got from my primary physician's office and Dr. Susan's office, it was obvious that they were working together. My primary took no action to remove the blood clots from my shoulder and he even started this "Dr." Susan treatment that my shoulder is supposedly "inflamed with". At no time was I told that I needed to get acupuncture or some other healing modality in order to address the problem, but rather "Dr." Susan kept pushing for me to buy supplements and even gave me sample bottles of some of her supplements. The herbal remedies (which are fairly expensive and incredibly weak) provided no help at all for me. I was told on several occasions to make sure that I drank tons of water and take my herbal remedy and supplement routine. I did exactly what she said, but the pain and swelling only got much worse.
Eventually I ended the treatment with this "Dr." Susan and went back to my primary physician who then sent me to a surgeon who took out my entire right shoulder joint. The surgery requires at least three months of physical therapy, but it feels great now.
Conclusion: This so-called "Dr." Susan is just a charlatan who has been trained in some very weak and potentially harmful methods of healing. Despite the fact that these "energy" cures have been tried and proven not to work, she continues to promote herself as being some sort of healer who can diagnose and treat illness with simple manipulations and meaningless supplements. She is nothing more than a con-artist that has found her way (through deception of course) into the California State Board registered nurses website as an example of a health resource. The primary physician I went to (with no medical background at all) was turned into a puppet by this "Dr.
