Allergies and Hypnosis

[CycoMelody]

Ok yall, I am typically one to answer question but right now I have one. I like to believe anything can be done with hypnosis but is there any cases where Hypnosis was used to cure allergies? Sadly I am allergic to hay dust, bees, and Latex. The Latex is the worst part. I want to wear some nice sexy stuff but I break out when I wear latex :s Any help would be useful.

Yes it is very possible.I rid my mother of hayfever using hypnosis,she had it bad too,her face would fully puff up and her eyes would close.She no longer suffers.

Hayfever you could probably reduce the severity of, primarily because if they don't believe they are affected then they will not rub their eyes, sniffle or do anything which can potentially aggravate you sinuses, also there is potential to just make the whole experience less overwhealming and debilitating.

Can you actually cure allegies? No.

While you may be able to get some seemingly complex physiological responses (such as convincing someone to be more feminine, they might reduce sports, physical activity or even particularly strenuous use of the muscles, testerone usage lowers, production also lowers) the allegen response is down to essentially uncontrollable white blood cells which view innocuous substances as viral and try to attack them.

I suppose technically you could with a latex allergy introduce it to your skin incrementally in the hope of hardening you endurance and response to it, in the same way that certain workers will over the years develop tougher or more resistant skin if they deal with fire or harsh rough materials. However anything which inhibits swelling, or any difficulty breathing should just be avoided. And when it comes to latex I would just suggest trying leather, pvc or rubbery as a feasible alternative.

I'd like you to explain that one, with the evidence i just gave you.

if someone rids themselves of all the symptoms and reactions of an allergy then is this not curing the allergy? since the syptoms are the only way to tell if the allergy exist. this is the standard that doctors use to determine weather someone has an allergy is thier reactions "syptoms"
to the allergine then when the reactions no longer exist then the alergy no longer exist. this is another one of those subjects that seems to be comming down to the old "all you will get is a placebo effect" attitude well who cares why it is working to rid the poeple of the undisirable effects all that matters is that it works! in both instances described by whatthe75 the poeple no longer had allergic reactions to the allergine if this is not a good way to determine weather the person is allergic or not then all the docors I have ever seen are doing it wrong. the funny part is if a wonder drug came out that got the same results everyone would hail it a maraculous cure. I have always found it interesting that whenever something is found that works better than medical science the "science minded people" find more stringent guidlines to judge these things by then is ever used in medical science to test the worthiness of a "valid medical treatment" for the same condition!

the video you left the link for is absolutely irrelivent because I am not saying you are close minded for your ideas of what can or cannot happen all i am saying is there is no way what so ever to determine the limits of something we cannot understand fully. as I said earlier the reality for you may be that these things can not be done. and to begin with all i was saying was that if the use of hypnosis alievates the reactions to an allergine then how is it not a cure? if a person starts to devolop breast or a feminine figure while listening to hypnosis then how is hypnosis not able to do this? there have been many reported cases of people with multiple personality disorder (MPD) who have had some interesting changes when they change from one personality to the other such as scar tissue changes, eye color changes, right or left handedness changes, weather or not they needed corrective lenses to see welland yes even changes in allergies. this in and of itself shows how the mind can bring about remarkable changes in the body. would this not be evidence that the mind is capable of curing allergies? I will leave it for you to decied weather or not I am close minded but from your video it seems to fallow the idea that close mindedness comes from not being courious enough to investagate and just going with an assumption based on belief, I have done many hours of research into MPD and several other things that have led me to believe that the mind can have very real effects over the body. I researched the effects of the mind on the body for two years before decieding to use hypnosis. I had not intended to call you closed minded (if I did infere it I do honestly apoligize!!) you had read my responces and replied with well thought out reasons why you feel the way you do. a close minded person would not pay enough attention to an alternate view point to give a reasonable responce. and to be honest I am actually enjoying this debate ( I say debate because I do not see this as an argument because there is no rudeness no name calling involved just the presentation of alternating viewpoints!). If I have offended with my post please accept my sincere apoligies.

Not to take either side, here is my opinion of it. Just like scientific studies where some participants are given a placebo and some are given the real drugs, then some from both sides show positive results. It doesn't matter which you are given the fact is some are helped through the science of the medication and some end up being helped because they believe they were medicated. So what I am saying is physically or mentally it is still a cure. I bought a titanium necklace to wear for shoulder pain I was told by skeptics that it didn't really do anything it was all in my head. My reply to that was , if this was the case I just fixed the problem in my head for $30 I know of other people that have paid $10,000 to get their head fixed and are still screwed up, guess it was a good idea to try. So to me it would be worth a try either way. Just remember if it is a deadly food or insect allergy to proceed with caution when testing the results. If you try let us know the results.

Regarding the original post, while the usefulness of hypnosis in curing your latex allergy seems questionable, that doesn't preclude you from using hypnosis to deal with that problem in other ways. You could, for instance, wear garments made from other materials and be hypnotized into believing that they are, in fact, latex (sans the allergic reaction). This is obviously not a perfect solution, but as a workaround for achieving what you want to accomplish (ie, wearing "some nice sexy stuff"), it has potential.

If the mind can use the placebo effect to help with allergies, why wouldn't hypnosis also be able to help?

[MrLes]

ok ...honestly I dont know if hypnosis can CURE allergies but with the rigth tist...I am sure some of the symptoms might be eased enough to make life more enjoyable

[JonRhodesuk]

yes, research has indicated that hypnosis can help with allergies. A recent study showed that people with hay fever showed significant improvements when they visualised being in an environment of clean fresh mountain cold air.
