By Anna Phillips


This is the state in a human consciousness where in a person will be focusing his or her attention into something, reducing or losing a peripheral awareness. Also, the persons response to any suggestions is enhanced. This term is also being referred to the skill, act, or art of hypnosis induction. There are two theories that explain the things that occur in here and these are the altered state and the non state theories.

Through this, a person will have heightened both the concentration and the focus, meaning, concentrating intensely into the thought and memories, thus, the sources of distraction will be blocked out. Hypnotherapist is a profession that is related with this condition and to perform the therapy. The hypnotherapists for Washington DC hypnosis have surely been addressing properly the concerned problems on this.

There are a lot of different applications of hypnosis in multiple fields and these would include for the purposes of medical, psychotherapeutic, military, entertainment, and self improvement. Since before, this is already being used as supplemental approach for the therapy of cognitive behavior. Usually, it is defined as related to the classical conditioning, where in both hypnosis and stimuli are the conditioned responses.

Aside from those, some other purposes of this is for sports, physical therapy, rehabilitation, forensics, and education. Some artists also have been utilizing this for their creations. There are people drawing analogies between the hypnotism aspects and areas including religious hysteria, ritual trances, and crowd psychology. So here are the following advantages and disadvantages of hypnotherapy.

The deeper responses for the body relaxation are activated. Through this, the sympathetic nervous systems activities will be reduced, blood pressure is decreased, heart rate is slowed, and healing will be accelerated. The control of life, surroundings, relationship, and body is another important advantage. And thus, a person can make a realization about the unfolding of his or her life.

This can be considered also as a self hypnosis, and this means that people can be able to control their own hypnotic state. They have the freedom on choosing to explore the subconscious specifically the memories, images, and sensations. And maybe, they can also choose to open their eyes anytime, and return into a room.

Through this, one can also learn on the methods of self care, and thus, learning the resources, ideas, and techniques which may possibly become the lifetime tools. This also changes the reactivity of events and stress responses. And through these changes, the health will be increased, the muscles become relaxed, and the immune system restores the heal mode.

And the following are the disadvantages. One is not letting the therapy to work when the person is not willing, nor focused, and is not wanting it for healing. A person who guides them only is the hypnotherapist. Because of this, patients must participate fully, become dedicated to space and time, and to practice the self hypnosis.

And also, this cannot be fixed quickly. It often needs several sessions to take effect and for permanent healing. Though in most cases, one session has only eliminated life long allergies and chronic neck pains. For chronic diseases, many sessions are required as well for a lasting change and one very common example for these sessions is the multiple sclerosis.
