There are a great many chronic ailments which medical specialists either don't yet understand or cannot treat successfully. These doctors often refer their patients to me for clinical hypnotherapy, which is supported by over 75 years of published scientific evidence of efficacy for challenging chronic illness and pain. The list is long, and includes such common ailments as lower back pain (often post-surgery), IBS and other digestive system pain, fibromyalgia and mysterious non-arthritic joint pain, severe headaches, and many more. All tend to respond exceedingly well (80% to 98% enduring relief) from clinical hypnotherapy when administered by an experienced certified therapist.
