| There are MANY current uses for hypnotherapy and these uses cover a very wide variety of problems and disorders.

search of "hypnotherapy" turns up over 4 million results. Some
hypnotherapists require a written referral, particularly if the condition has a formal medical diagnosis (E.g. Fibromyalgia, Enuresis, Alcoholism) while most indications do
NOT require a referral. In all cases, it is wise to let your primary care
physician know what types of treatment you are receiving for any condition.
