Allergies, Autoimmune Disorders and Hypnosis

by Tim Brunson PhD
Integrative medical interventions intended to address allergies and other autoimmune disorders usually fail to adequately address the nature of the human immune system. The body's homeostatic balance should assume that our immune system can properly identify times when a foreign body is a threat and when it is not. However, to fully understand its true nature and how integrative interventions may apply, the clinician must realize its duality.

and under activity of the immune system.
For clients with cancer and infection type problems the goal is to increase the activity of the immune
system so that it can recongize and eliminate errant cells, bacteria,
viruses, etc.
In autoimmune disorders such as those listed in the article the key is to
quiet the over responsive immune system which is attacking the clients
own tissues.
The practitioner must know this in order to work toward the desired
physiologic change.
