Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

No doubt those familiar with current research in psychobiology will be interested in hypnotherapist Rossi's description of therapeutic hypnosis, as will lay readers not daunted by the numerous citations to the professional literature. Integrating information from clinical and experimental studies on the placebo response, stress, neuroendocrinology, molecular genetics, the neurobiology of learning and memory, and psychosomatic medicine, he postulates a theory of mind-body communication and explores the idea of a mind-gene connection. His approach to mind-body healing is to help patients convert "stress symptoms into meaningful signals and psychological problems into creative functions" through therapeutic hypnosis. Appropriate for professional and large public libraries. Jodith Janes, University Hospitals of Cleveland

5.0 out of 5 stars Many good insights into mind-body healing, October 31, 2004
The book explains in great detail the influence and the effect of mind over body from the perspective of neuro-biology. In simple terms, most healing performed with hypnosis are a result of mind influencing the blood-flow, which then creates corresponding changes in the body.

Rossi provides a some amazing case-histories where hypnosis has helped people deal with problems which were unresponsive to regular medical treatment.

Together with a number of healing techniques, the focus is on Ericksonian principle of utilization. In this respect he also points out the significance of "utradian rhythm" - the fact that throughout the day we all drift in and out of trance naturally, and that one could do hypnosis even more-effectively by doing it in accord with ultradian rhythm, at a time when the person feels naturally more relaxed and drifting into a trance state.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent text the mind/body phenomena, December 30, 1999
By Craig Lang (Minneapolis, MN United States) - See all my reviews
In a word, excellent. A wonderful explanation of mind-body dynamics and the placebo effect. Some excellent hypnotic and mind-body healing techniques. Dr. Rossi is a true expert in his field. He fully justifies that reputation with this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Nuts and Bolts of Hypnosis, January 30, 2004
By Scott G. Shelp (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This book is technical, but comprehensive and concise in its explaination of what we know about how the "Mind-Body Connection" works. From practical mini-scripts to use clinically to the mathematical formula for hypnosis, this book has it all. A background in neurophysiology is helpful, but those who understand it will truly appreciate the detail.
