Medical Hypnosis or Medical Hypnoanalysis was developed by Dr. William J. Bryan. It is based on the medical model of taking a history, doing tests, making a diagnosis and providing treatment. “Prescriptions” are suggestions made while in hypnosis specifically designed to treat problems and to help create new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. While doctors use this powerful, effective tool, this therapy does not use medication or other invasive medical procedures. The term “medical” is an analogy for the medical diagnostic healing process.
