Gut-directed hypnotherapy is "highly effective" for children with long-standing abdominal pain or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), researchers have found.
"We advocate that hypnotherapy become the treatment of choice in children with persisting complaints of either functional abdominal pain or IBS in whom first-line therapies such as education and dietary advice have failed," Dr Arine M. Vlieger of St. Antonius Hospital, Nieuwegein, and colleagues conclude in a report in the journal Gastroenterology in late 2007.
How the research was done
They randomly assigned 53 children, aged eight to 18 years, with persistent abdominal pain or IBS to hypnotherapy, six sessions over three months, or standard medical care plus six sessions of supportive therapy (the control group).
In hypnotherapy sessions, children were taught about the mind-body connection and the mind's ability to regulate bodily functions.
They learned general relaxation techniques, how to visualise a normal functioning gut and were also given "ego-strengthening" suggestions to increase self-confidence and well being.
Every child also received a CD with a standardised hypnosis session and was encouraged to listen to it every day and practice self-hypnosis.
Children in the control group received standard education, dietary advice, and pain medication and discussed possible triggers to stomach pain with a support person.
Hypnotherapy more successful
The researchers found that hypnotherapy was "highly superior" to standard care, yielding a significantly greater reduction in pain scores recorded in weekly stomach pain diaries.
At the one year follow up point, pain intensity scores had deceased from 13.5 to 1.3 in the hypnotherapy group and from 14.1 to 8.0 in the control group.
Moreover, 85 percent of children in the hypnotherapy group were considered successfully treated versus only 25 percent of children in the control group.
The team suggests further studies be conducted to see whether hypnotherapy might also be a treatment option for children with other gastrointestinal disorders.
Hypnosis has been by approved by the American Medical Association as a valid medical treatment since 1958, though the concept of using a state of hypnosis to alleviate both physical and mental ills has recurred throughout the history of medicine from ancient times. By reaching the subconscious level of the mind, hypnotherapy can be used to alter the way a person consciously perceives health problems, and also promote new manners of response to them. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis have been repeatedly proven to be highly effective means of alleviating all of the various symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS, or "spastic colon"), including pain, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, nausea, and gas.[
rritable Bowel Syndrome in fact is almost uniquely suited to treatment by hypnosis or self-hypnosis, for several reasons. First, as just noted, stress-related attacks can be significantly reduced. Second, one of the most impressive aspects from hypnotherapy, and of tremendous benefit to IBS sufferers, is its well-documented ability to relieve virtually all types and degrees of pain.[5] Finally, because IBS is not a disease at all but a syndrome, if you can relieve and prevent the symptoms, you have effectively cured yourself of the disorder. The underlying dysfunction may still be present but if you suffer no noticeable effects from it, you will be living an IBS-free life. This outcome is a definite possibility from hypnotherapy treatments. (Less)
Help Children Who Do Not Receive Their Child Support Video Public Service Announcement from ACES:
ACES - The Association for Children for Enforcement of (More) Public Service Announcement from ACES:
ACES - The Association for Children for Enforcement of Support. MISSION STATEMENT: ACES is a non-profit child support organization dedicated to assisting disadvantaged children whose parents fail to meet their legal and moral child support and/or visitation obligations. ACES, The Association for Children for Enforcement of Support, Inc. a non-profit organization, was founded in March 1984. Today, ACES is the largest national grassroots child support advocacy organization in the United States with 40,000 members and 165 chapters in 45 states. All are united in the ACES mission: to assist disadvantaged children affected by parents who fail to meet their legal, moral and financial obligations to support their children. A voluntary National Board of Trustees advises the organization. ACES members are representative of the families who have 18 million children owed $100 billion in unpaid child support. A snapshot of the average ACES member would show a single, female head of household who earns $14,000 per year. Her two children are owed $7,000 in unpaid support, which has accumulated at the rate of $65 per week for almost three years. She cannot afford a private attorney to pursue the father for the collection of child support and the children's unpaid medical bills. She is dependent on the local government Child Support Agency, which has taken no action on her behalf in over eight months. ACES offers "how to " instructions and educational information about child support enforcement, visitation rights and paternity determination. ACES provides a telephone "hot-line" for affected families across the country who are seeking information and understanding. ACES conducts public awareness campaigns through news releases and community action.
It is concrete help such as this that accounts for the 1999 ACES survey showing that 77% of the families who contacted us for assistance successfully collected child support. The average amount came to $4,500 per year, surpassing the average annual welfare benefit of $3,462 for a family of three. When child support payments were joined with available income, 88% of those previously dependent on welfare became self-sufficient. Having become a highly visible organization, ACES National received 100,000 requests for information and assistance. This demand is partly due to national media exposure, including: The McNeil Lehrer Report, NBC Today Show, ABC's Good Morning America, CBS This Morning, Newsweek, USA Today, The New York Times, LA Times, Chicago Tribune and many others. Many of the low-income parents empowered to seek and collect child support payments have gone on to volunteer to assist others by organizing ACES chapters in their areas. ACES National provides organizing assistance to almost 165 of these local grassroots organizations and provides on-site visits to chapters for training, discussion and problem solving. ACES has designed a series of training conferences for ACES chapters which help them to develop leadership skills, organize members and develop advocacy programs that motivate child support enforcement agencies to strictly enforce court ordered child support.
