Hypnosis And Dental Pain - Get Your Dental Work Done Without Needles
June 3, 2008
It sounds great. Imagine getting your rotten tooth taken out without getting injected or having that “fat lip” feeling. Well it may be a common occurrence.
An article (Click Here for the article.) explained how the procedure went. A man who couldn’t afford to get his teeth pulled joined a study where they hypnotize you before getting your teeth done… like mind over matter (or molars).
Many people in the hypnosis field know that the power of the brain is still yet untouched. Our brain can control a lot of systems in our body including pain. In this case, a hypnotist will help the dental patient picture a pain dial where he has complete control over the dental pain. As the pain increases, he simply dials it down with thoughts. On a scale of one to ten, he was able to maintain the pain at a 1. Even when he felt it going to a 2, he “turned it down.”
That’s quite remarkable and believable. I personally feel that this type of pain control can be achieved but the article does caution that it doesn’t work for everyone.
I’m currently not aware of anyone who is doing this here in the states but I am willing to give it a try. If you are a hypnotist and are willing to try something out, let me know by emailing me or commenting on this blog.
