I’ve always been interested in NYC and Medical Hypnosis, and what that relationship has been and how it’s been evolving. NYC is the mecca of the best Western medicine money can buy, much in the same way California is the alternative medicine capital of the country. Within the last five years, however, NYC is beginning to adopt some methods that have been previously shunned or ignored. Now, the entire country, including NYC, is taking a closer look at nutrition, Clinical Hypnosis (neuroplasticity and Rational Cognitive Therapy, both of which are practiced at Gluck Solutions), yoga/meditation, and even, acupuncture. It’s about time Clinical Hypnosis got its rightful place in the public consciousness.

NYC is the melting pot of the world, so why not benefit from the healing insight of the myriad of disciplines of the East and West? There’s still a long way to go despite the growing optimism. Hypnosis in NYC is where chiropractic was in the 1950s. It’s still confused with stage hypnosis, mysticism, and other misinterpretations provided in movies, television, and literature. But, we’re going in the right direction. Tons of my NYC clients, who have tried medication and psychotherapy, have been spreading the word that Medical Hypnosis really does work for quitting smoking, weight loss, and anxiety/depression.

It has taken, and will take more, years for hypnosis to come into its own. There are few NYC practitioners who have serious experience in the field or work to dispel the myths surrounding it, but in the end, it will become the cherished discipline that it deserves to be. Where else for this process to accelerate than in NYC? I have full faith in the future of NYC Hypnosis, and Gluck Solutions’ place in it. Dr. Errol Gluck, till next week.
