An up‐to‐date, authoritative resource designed to underpin the use of clinical hypnosis within the medical and

Published in association with the British Society of Clinical and Academic Hypnosis (BSCAH), the book draws on the expertise and experience of a wide range of health professionals including doctors, dentists, nurses, psychologists and counsellors, all of whom use hypnosis techniques in their practice.

Andrew Jackson has recently undertaken a course of study in the treatment of post traumatic stress with the National College of Hypno-psychotherapy. 5% of men and 10% of women suffer from post traumatic stress at some time in their lives. This can be due to emotional problems as a result of difficulties at work or within the family, or to some specific event. For example, up to 27% of people involved in road accidentsand 23% of patients admitted to intensive care suffer post traumatic stress. This is often due to a perceived loss of control.
