Surgery/Anesthesiology (In unusual circumstances, hypnosis has been used as the sole anesthetic for surgery, including the removal of the gall bladder, amputation, cesarean section, and hysterectomy. Reasons for using hypnosis as the sole anesthetic may include: situations where chemical anesthesia is contraindicated because of allergies or hyper-sensitivities; when organic problems increase the risk of using chemo anesthesia; and in some conditions where it is ideal for the patient to be able to respond to questions or directives from the surgeon);

Gastrointestinal Disorders (Ulcers, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Colitis.)

Dermatologic Disorders (Eczema, Herpes, Neuro-dermatitis, Pruritus [itching], Psoriasis, Warts);

Acute and Chronic Pain (back pain, cancer pain, dental anesthesia, headaches  and migraines, arthritis or rheumatism);

Burns: Evidence show that hypnosis is not only effective for the pain, but when hypnotic anesthesia and feelings of coolness are created in the first few hours after a significant burn, it appears that it also reduces inflammation and promotes healing.

Nausea and Vomiting associated with chemotherapy and pregnancy .

 Childbirth: Based upon evidence, approximately two thirds of women have been found capable of using hypnosis as the sole analgesic for labor. This eliminates the risks that medications can pose to both the mother and child;

Hemophilia: Hemophilia patients can often be taught to use self-hypnosis to control vascular flow and keep from requiring a blood transfusion; Allergies, asthma; High blood pressure (hypertension);
