Hypnosis is for fun at magic clubs and stage shows, but in reality, hypnosis can be a very effective tool for healing.  Hypnosis is a state of heightened awareness in which suggestions for change and healing can be more easily absorbed.  A Harvard Medical School study shows that the fractured bones of patients who received regular hypnotherapy actually fused at an advanced rate.  Just six weeks after the break, the bones appeared to have been healing for eight and a half weeks!  Another study showed that the incision wounds of women who were hypnotized before and after breast-reduction surgery healed more quickly, and the women also had less pain.  You can try self-hypnosis yourself at home.  My friend Dick Sutphen is an author and world renown hypnotherapist.  You can learn more about hypnotherapy and see all that he has to offer on his site: www.dicksutphen.com
