The American Medical Association approved hypnosis as a therapeutic tool in 1958. It has been proven effective with many different medical and emotional problems including pain reduction, anxiety disorders, stress, high blood pressure, learning disorders, post-traumatic stress, panic, addictions and many others. However, the desire for change must be genuine before progress can occur. This is true for any therapy, not just hypnosis. When the client takes an active role in his or her therapy, hypnosis can effect change in a much shorter time (months vs. years) than traditional psychotherapy. It is not magic, but positive results can be achieved for virtually anyone who is ready for change.
