Prominent physicians are suggesting ways to cut health care costs, including this one: "Plenty of studies now show that integrative medicine works very well. For example, a study conducted at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York found that when women participated in a hypnosis session before breast surgery, they required less pain medication and experienced less nausea and emotional upset than the control group. Patients in the hypnosis group also cost the hospital $772 less overall. That's an example of how a simple technique can help patients and reduce costs." Submitted by Dr. Woodson Merrell, M.D., chairman, department of integrative medicine at Beth Israel Medical Center, New York

Self-Hypnosis Helps Children and Teens with Tourette Syndrome

A new study of children and adolescents with Tourette Syndrome finds that self-hypnosis reduced their symptoms and improved their quality of life. Participants ranged in age from 6 to 19 years, with an average of 13 years. Almost all of the 33 participants experienced a dramatic increase in tic control after only a few sessions: 12 after two sessions, 13 after only three visits, and one after four visits. The study was published in the July issue of the Journal of Development and Behavioral Pediatrics.
