But currently, things are starting to shape up for hypnotic treatment. There are
medical groups who are starting to recognize the potential of hypnotherapy in
treating illnesses and dealing with disorders.
Hypnotherapy is best recommended for children ages 5 and above. Children, unlike
adults, are more in touch with their imaginative side. This could be either
beneficial or detrimental in the hypnosis process. That is why different
approaches should be used based on different age and characteristics.
Hypnotherapy can also be done by parents to their children. Experts say that
children with ages seven to eight are in the hypnotic state most of the time even
when there is no hypnotist around. On these ages, children take in suggestion very
seriously. Parents who tend not to be too sensitive with what they say to their
children may say some remarks which can be both hurtful and have some effect on
their self-esteem.
This is why children who are undergoing hypnotherapy tends to be sensitive to what
is around them remember that hypnotherapy and its positive effects can be turned
into rubble when negative energy surrounds the child. Parents should be sensitive
with what they say and suggest to their children.
