Hypnosis can help in pediatric respiratory care

Below is the opening paragraph in  ScienceDaily’s 2/13/10 article, “Hypnosis Can Relieve Symptoms in Children with Respiratory Diseases,” which offers a summary of a paper published in the medical journal, Pediatric Asthma, Allergy & Immunology.

Hypnosis has potential therapeutic value in children with respiratory disorders for alleviating symptoms such as habit cough or unexplained sensations of difficulty breathing and for lessening a child’s discomfort during medical procedures. Proper utilization of hypnosis as an adjunct to conventional treatment and its ability to use the mind-body connection to bring about physiological changes are explored in a provocative paper in Pediatric Asthma, Allergy & Immunology, a peer-reviewed journal published by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. The paper is available free online. Read the rest of the ScienceDaily article here.
